Replace Your Missing Teeth With Dental Implants in Fitchburg

Dental implants are highly beneficial to patients suffering from tooth loss. Whether you’re missing one or multiple teeth, dental implants restore full functionality and give you a beautifully natural smile.

Additionally, they restore all the health benefits of natural teeth, making them ideal tooth replacements. Their extraordinary success rate makes them our top choice to restore a smile.

What Is A Dental Implant?

Dental implants are small titanium (or zirconia) posts that replace a tooth’s root. These posts bond solidly to the jawbone and are capped with natural-looking crowns. For the patients of Brian C. McDowell, DDS who have taken advantage of these procedures, dental implants have made a tremendous difference in their quality of life. However, the process requires precise surgical techniques, quality components, and uncompromising patient care.

Benefits of Dental Implants

An essential benefit of single and multiple dental implants is preventing bone loss after tooth extraction or loss. The lack of bone support from tooth loss can affect changes in facial features. Dental implants help prevent these potential effects. Additionally, implant-supported crowns outlast dental crowns on natural teeth due to the material’s natural resistance to decay.

During the last decade, the practice of dental implantology has become one of the most vital areas of mainstream dentistry. It is the ideal solution to replace missing teeth. Patients are delighted with their teeth’ feel, functionality, and appearance. It is an effective procedure that is genuinely life-changing for patients suffering from tooth loss. Whether you are missing one or more of your teeth, dental implants allow our dentists to restore full functionality and give you a beautifully natural smile. If you’re suffering from missing teeth, Dr. McDowell can use Fitchburg dental implants to help you:

  • Smile confidently everywhere you go
  • Enjoy all your favorite foods you’ve been missing out on
  • Make dining out fun and worry-free again
  • Improve your oral health and prevent other health problems
  • Look younger and more attractive

Implants Will Give You Something to Smile About

Teeth implants are the preferred method for restoring missing teeth. These small posts can be inserted into your jawbone by an oral surgeon where your teeth are missing. After a period of healing, when new bone cells will grow around the implants, your implants will be ready to support replacement teeth.

Your new teeth will look and function just like your natural teeth. Besides giving you back your teeth, your implants will help keep your jawbone from deteriorating. We’ll discuss all your implant options in detail, which could include:

Implant-Supported Crowns – A sturdy new crown can be crafted from porcelain and placed atop your implant. It will restore your biting and chewing capacity and blend in naturally with your other teeth.
Implant-Supported Bridges – An implant bridge will anchor to at least two dental implants and fill in the empty space left by a series of missing teeth.
Implant-Retained Dentures – We’ll attach a set of dentures to your dental implants using a system of snaps and balls. These dentures offer superior comfort and performance over conventional dentures.
Implant-Supported Dentures – These are our most comfortable style of dentures. They attach to a metal bar that is secured to your implants.

Will dental implants stop bone loss?

Yes, they will! One of the best features of titanium dental implants is that they chemically fuse with your jawbone in a process known as osseointegration. Over a period of a few months, new bone material will grow around the implant, and the two become one. The implant stimulates the bone just like a natural tooth root does to help keep it strong and healthy.

Where is the dental implant surgery done?

Our office works with a trusted oral surgeon in the area who will place your dental implants according to the treatment plan you have decided on with our team. After a healing period of a few months, your implants will be ready to support new replacement teeth, and you will then return to our office to have them attached to your implants.

How much do dental implants cost?

The answer to that question depends on a number of factors – how many implants are needed, the location of the implants, the condition of your gums, your bone health, and the type of replacement teeth you choose. We’ll give you all the facts and figures you need to make a wise decision about your implant treatment. To help our guests, we do offer third-party financing through CareCredit with very reasonable terms.
