A Permanent Solution to Missing Teeth

Dental implants offer a more permanent solution to missing teeth because they replace the roots of your teeth. Made of titanium, dental implants are surgically fused to your jawbone in the form of posts. Once your implants are healed, Dr. Lindy Beverly will cover the posts with a dental crown made from materials that look and act like your old teeth. 

Are Dental Implants Right for You?

Due to the advancements in dental technology, dental implants are available to virtually everyone. However, some conditions may prevent dental implants from being successful.

Dental Work

If you have other dental restorations such as partial or full dentures, or dental bridges, they may need to be replaced or reinforced before your dental implant procedure.

Bone Loss

Having enough bone where the missing tooth is plays a critical role in having a successful dental implant. Patients who still have teeth see the most success, especially if implants are placed immediately after any tooth extractions occur.

Medical Problems

If you suffer from any medical conditions or are on any medications, be sure to tell our dental team prior to your procedure. Some medications or health problems can impact the success of your dental implants.

Gum Disease

Gum disease and periodontal disease can cause serious problems for dental implants. If you have a condition more serious than gingivitis, it will need to be treated before your implants can be placed.

Smoking

Chewing tobacco and smoking can cause dental implants to fail. Quitting tobacco is the best way to ensure your implant procedure is a success. If you're finding it difficult to stop smoking, talk to your doctor about solutions that may help you.
