Are you considering dental implants but feeling overwhelmed by the options? You’re not alone. Many patients come to us at The Center for Complete Health Dentistry at Wilton with questions about tooth replacement solutions. Let’s break down some of the most popular dental implant options to help you understand what might work best for your smile.

Single-Tooth Implants

If you’re missing just one tooth, a single-tooth implant might be the perfect solution. This option involves placing a titanium post into your jawbone, which acts as an artificial root. Once healed, we top it with a custom-made crown that looks and functions just like your natural tooth.

Implant-Supported Bridges

For those missing multiple adjacent teeth, implant-supported bridges offer a stable and long-lasting solution. Unlike traditional bridges that rely on neighboring teeth for support, these bridges are anchored by dental implants, providing a more secure fit and preserving your healthy tooth structure.

Implant-Retained Dentures

If you’ve been struggling with traditional dentures, implant-retained dentures could be a game-changer. These dentures snap onto implants placed in your jaw, offering improved stability and eliminating the need for messy adhesives. You’ll enjoy better chewing ability and increased confidence in your smile.

All-on-4 Implants

The All-on-4 technique is a revolutionary approach for those needing full arch replacement. This method uses just four strategically placed implants to support an entire arch of teeth. It’s an excellent option for patients who may not have enough bone density for traditional implants, often allowing for same-day teeth replacement.

Why Choose Dental Implants?

Dental implants offer several advantages over traditional dentures:

• Improved appearance and natural feel
• Better speech and chewing ability
• Long-lasting solution (with proper care, implants can last a lifetime)
• Preservation of jawbone health
• No need for adhesives or special cleaning solutions
