Implants
Crowns or conventional bridges may not be the only option you have to replace missing teeth. The practice of Dr. Carol Ford specializes in dental implants. For many of our patients, this revolutionary procedure offers long-lasting tooth replacement that looks and feels very natural, without the discomfort, irritation and instability often associated with dentures and bridges. Ask Dr. Ford if this surprisingly pain-free surgical alternative could be right for you.
What is the procedure of having dental implants? An artificial titanium tooth root is surgically placed into your jaw, which then integrates with the surrounding bone tissue. This period of integration is between 4-6 months during which you can be given a temporary restoration. Once the implant has fully integrated with the jaw bone, a crown or bridge can then be placed on the implant, where teeth are missing.
