If you have a missing tooth, you know how it can affect your self-esteem. Smiling with a gap between your teeth can make you feel self-conscious and may make you reluctant to smile. But missing teeth can also interfere with chewing and speaking properly. A missing tooth or teeth can also change your bite, which may put additional pressure on other teeth.
At Northland Dental Medicine, Dr. Michael Corsello, offers options when it comes to replacing missing teeth, such as dental implants. Dental implants are a permanent solution used in order to replace the function and appearance of a missing tooth.
A dental implant involves a few steps including surgically placing the implants into the jawbone. The implant fuses to the bone and creates a strong foundation for the prosthetic tooth. A post is then attached to the implant, which will hold a crown. Crowns are matched to the size, shape and color of existing natural teeth. They are virtually indistinguishable from your other teeth.
Our team at Northland Dental Medicine is proud to offer the latest technology and innovations in dentistry. Your smile is one of the first things people notice about you. Our goal is to help you smile with confidence. We are happy to answer any of your questions and provide free consolations.
