Missing
front teeth have unique demands. The challenge is to replace
your now missing teeth for both appearance and function, without
harming your remaining teeth or gum tissue.
The first step is to replace missing
tooth roots by placing titanium implants. The implants
will remain covered underneath the gum for approximately
three to six months. During that time, osseointegration
(fusion of bone to titanium) takes place.
The second step of the procedure involves
uncovering the implants and attaching extensions. This
completes the foundation on which your new teeth will
be placed.
The final step is the placement of
your new teeth. With techniques that ensure optimal size,
shape, color and fit, these replacement teeth will blend
with your facial characteristics and remaining natural
teeth.
