Dental Implants
When permanent teeth are lost, regardless of the reason or number of teeth, dental implants can offer patients a "new lease on life." Implants are superior to other choices because they are solid, secure, and aesthetically pleasing to look at. After nearly 35 years of use, they have a 90-95% proven success rate in appropriately chosen cases.
An implant is special surgical grade titanium post that is inserted surgically into the jawbone below the gum surface. With proper use of the newest anesthetics and medications, you need not be concerned about pain. As the bone bonds to the post, it forms a secure foundation onto which your new teeth are then attached, shaped and colored to suit your mouth. The number of teeth Dr. West is replacing will determine the best kind of restoration for you. Dental implants can be used to replace a single tooth, or a full set of teeth. If you have been suffering with partial or full dentures, are missing teeth, or feel you need teeth extracted and replaced, don't hesitate to ask Dr. West about an implant evaluation.
