Dental implants are the most natural and lifelike way to replace a missing tooth. Get your smile back and eat a healthy diet again with implants.

It is like Having Your Tooth Again!

Missing Teeth’s Impact on Your Health and Smile 

When you have missing teeth, life becomes more difficult and perhaps even less enjoyable because you simply can’t feel confident with missing teeth that show. Tooth loss, however, is about more than just looks. Missing teeth reduce your food choices, and eating is one of the greatest pleasures in life. For some patients, a limited diet means poor nutrition, which perpetuates a cycle of disease and illness.

Dental Implants for Single and Multiple Missing Teeth

Dental implants require surgical placement but come with a few added benefits. They tend to keep bone from deteriorating as long as you care for them and look after your oral health. Dental implant treatment takes about 3-6 months from start to finish, but the results can last decades or even a lifetime. 


With a 95 percent success rate, dental implants are a popular choice and generally only fail because of two conditions – periodontal disease and poor occlusion.

Periodontal gum disease leads to bone loss, which destroys the dental implant’s foundation.

Poor occlusion can also mean bone loss because of uneven pressure on the teeth, dental implant, and bone. Dr. Mathew is an occlusion expert and will make sure your bite is even

Bridging the Gap in Your Smile

While dental implants are considered the gold standard to replace a missing tooth, some people prefer a non-surgical option to fill the gap in their smiles. Dental bridges rely on two crowns to support an artificial tooth to complete the smile. Dental bridges look natural and keep the surrounding teeth from shifting into the gap, which protects your bite.



For multiple missing teeth in a row, an implant-supported bridge can eliminate the need for a partial removable denture. Many patients find the stability of implant dentistry preferable to removable prosthetics.


Implant-Retained Dentures

Dental implants can secure dentures in place so that they do not move or shift. If you want to replace a full arch of teeth, this is an economical and practical alternative to single dental implant surgeries.
