MISSING TOOTH REPLACEMENT

Dental implants from your Riverview, FL dentist are the most popular option for patients who are missing a tooth or multiple teeth. Dr. Kernagis will use dental implants to replace missing teeth and also as a support for dental crowns, dental bridges, or partial dentures. Dental implants are the only tooth replacement option that replaces the root of the tooth to support your jaw bone and gives you a fully functioning new crown.

Your South Shore Dental Excellence team has significant experience as implant dentists and is excited to help you feel confident, satisfied, and comfortable with your teeth again.

DENTAL IMPLANT PROCEDURE

First, your Riverview, FL, the dentist will make sure there is enough space for your implant and that the root has been completely removed.

Next, your implant dentist will place the dental implant in the same spot your original tooth root was located.

Over the next three to six months, your implant will heal and undergo a process called "osseointegration," where it will fuse with your bone and provide a strong and sturdy foundation for your crown, bridge, or denture.

Once your implant has healed completely, the implant dentist will attach the abutment and crown bridge or denture.

BENEFITS OF DENTAL IMPLANTS

FUNCTIONAL | Dental implants are so comfortable and functional that you may forget that your implant isn't a natural tooth. Your tooth replacement will give you back your beautiful smile and give you the function of a natural tooth.
