How Can Dental Implants Restore and Revitalize Your Smile?

There are many reasons that a person may be missing one or more of their permanent teeth; disease, an oral injury, and necessary extractions are common culprits. If your smile is incomplete for any reason, it is important to replace your missing teeth as soon as possible. At Generations Dental Care in Concord, NH, our team of experienced, highly-trained doctors offers an all-encompassing selection of restorative dental services to help you reclaim your smile, including dental implants.

Benefits of Dental Implants

A dental implant is comprised of two primary components: a tiny, biocompatible titanium post and a custom ceramic crown that looks like one of your natural teeth. The implanted post serves as an anchor for your new restoration, allowing you to enjoy a gorgeous smile that looks and feels as if you’d never lost a tooth at all.

Dental implants offer a huge variety of benefits, both aesthetic and functional. In addition to helping your smile look its best once again, dental implants effectively replace the roots of your lost teeth for unparalleled structural stability. When you lose a tooth, the jaw bone beneath the gum tissue begins to lose density. This can lead to the loosening or complete loss of additional teeth as well as visible changes to the shape of your face.

Dental implants help to stimulate the jaw bone, preventing it from deteriorating further. Your replacement tooth is durable, long-lasting, and fully functional. Your smile will look fantastic, and you’ll love the fact that you’re able to eat and speak with complete, natural comfort.

Enjoy a Complete Smile Once Again

Whether you are missing a single tooth or you are in need of replacements for an entire arch, the doctors at Generations Dental Care are here and ready to help. Contact our office in Concord, NH today to schedule your consultation with our team. We can’t wait to show you how much more comfortable and confident you’ll feel with your newly rejuvenated and restored smile!
