Dental Implants
A Permanent, Natural-Looking Solution for Missing Teeth
Missing teeth can affect how you eat, speak, and feel about your smile. Over time, tooth loss can also lead to changes in jawbone structure, shifting teeth, and bite problems. At Alexandra Park Dental, dental implants offer a reliable, long-term solution that restores both function and appearance.
A dental implant replaces the entire tooth structure, including the root. A small titanium post is placed into the jawbone, where it integrates naturally and provides a strong foundation for a custom dental crown. Once restored, the implant functions much like a natural tooth, allowing you to chew comfortably and smile with confidence.
Dental implants are often recommended because they:
- Provide excellent stability and longevity
- Help preserve jawbone health after tooth loss
- Do not rely on adjacent teeth for support
- Look and feel natural once healed
Dr. Richard Lee uses advanced imaging and careful treatment planning to ensure implants are placed precisely and with long-term success in mind. Whether you’re missing a single tooth or multiple teeth, implants can help restore balance to your bite and protect your oral health.
