You’re only given one set of adult teeth, and they are supposed to last you for an entire lifetime. But while teeth are strong, it’s pretty hard to keep them throughout the full period of your adult life, and when you lose one or two, it’s time to talk to a trusted prosthodontist in your area about finding a smile solution. Leaving your gap can increase your likelihood of seeing additional tooth loss, and it’s tough to make a great first impression without a complete, quality smile.
At our office in Prairie Village, Dr. Stuart Dexter, DDS helps people find a path forward after adult tooth loss. We’ve got some advanced ways of doing it too, including the placement of biocompatible dental implants, which connect directly to one to create a sturdy foundation. Dental implant technology has definitely changed the game when it comes to renewing smiles, so see if a titanium post is your opportunity to a full smile again. Let’s talk about what prosthodontic success means to you.
We put the effort into delivering real results. If you’ve lost a tooth, talk to Dr. Stuart Dexter, DDS about improving your smile through dental implant technology.
Lost A Tooth? Ask About Dental Implants
Over the last two decades, one area of oral health that’s absolutely exploded with interest is dental implant placement. This innovative approach to prosthodontic care uses a small, threaded titanium post to create a stable foundation for a smile renewal. Instead of connecting to other teeth, implants take advantage of an interesting quirk of the human body.
You see, your immune system does not recognize titanium as a danger. So, instead of trying to push the implant post out, bone tissue actually grows into the threads of the post. This allows dental implants to become the connection for a prosthetic called a pontic.
Using Advanced Technology To Restore Smiles
After tooth loss, it’s important to talk with your dental provider about your next moves. At our office, we can use advanced dental technology, as well, to work to deliver quality results.
