Single Dental Implants are the Solution to Tooth Loss

Change Your Life with Single Dental Implants

If you have one or more missing teeth, you may be struggling to bite and chew or feel embarrassed to talk, laugh, and socialize. Missing most or all your teeth can result in changes in your facial appearance, a decline in your health, and increased discomfort and/or self-consciousness. Regardless of how many teeth you are missing, dental implants are truly the best way to replace them. Dentures and other removable options do provide a solution; however, they allow for the jawbone to shift, resulting in your facial structure looking different. Implants are anchored directly to the bone and keep the jawbone in place for life.

What Makes Up a Dental Implant?

You Have a Choice in Dental Implants

Single tooth implants can support a single dental crown and can also be used to increase the stability of a modified denture, which snaps securely to the implants placed in the jawbone. For patients with many or all missing teeth, dental implants can permanently support a full, fixed bridge of artificial teeth. This solution makes it possible to eat any type of food with life-like, strong teeth. In all cases, dental implants improve your ability to eat comfortably, feel confident in a complete smile, and live an overall healthier and better quality of life.

Our Dental Implant Treatment Process

Your dental implant treatment at St. Petersburg Dental Implant Center is personalized to your specific oral health needs and smile goals. You’ll first complete a consultation with our implant dentist in St. Petersburg, FL where we’ll discuss your dental and medical history, take digital X-rays, and create a custom treatment plan. Next, you’ll undergo surgery, which may involve tooth extractions and bone grafting along with dental implant placement. We use the latest techniques for all our surgeries to ensure an efficient procedure. After the surgery has concluded, you’ll be fit with temporary replacements to allow time for your mouth to heal over the next two to three months. You’ll be able to eat and smile comfortably while you wait for your mouth to heal and we can place the permanent, custom implants.

Why Choose Dental Implants?

Single dental implants provide numerous advantages over other tooth replacement options. Unlike dental bridges, dental implants do not require healthy teeth to be present to support the restoration. Single dental implants only need proper jawbone density to remain secure and strong, where they will in turn provide stimulation to keep the bone healthy. Unlike dentures, dental implants are permanently secured in your jawbone and act like artificial tooth roots (implant posts). They are permanently fixed and stable enough to restore over 99% of natural biting and chewing power. For this reason, implants are one of the preferred solutions and virtually all patients who come to St. Petersburg Dental Implant Center are candidates for dental implants.
