You can be excited to enjoy the return of your complete smile at the end of prosthetic dental work. After all, a gap left by a missing tooth can be a target for unwanted stares, it can throw off the way you eat and speak, and it can negatively impact your oral health. At our Mansfield, TX dentist’s office, we can recommend that patients undergo treatment that includes the placement and restoration of dental implants. This approach to treatment benefits your jawbone as well as your smile. Your prosthetic tooth will be secure enough, comfortable enough, and lifelike enough to make you feel more comfortable in your daily life. It will also create important stimulation when you bite and chew, which leads to the continued flow of nutrients to the surrounding tissues.

Should Your Plans For Prosthetic Dental Work Include Dental Implants?

With dental implants, patients are able to bite, chew, and speak with more comfort. This approach gives you back your full smile as well as important support for your bite. Implants offer a few advantages that other approaches to prosthetic treatment can lack. For example, this approach to care can give you a secure, lifelike restoration that can stay in place without the need to modify neighboring teeth. It can also help you sustain the density and health of your jawbone so that a gradual deterioration will not impact your health and well-being.

Carefully Planning And Arranging Your Implant Placement

By using our advanced 3D imaging technology, we can take care to plan your implant placement. After confirming that you are a good candidate for treatment and making sure we know just the right location for your titanium post, we will insert it into the jawbone. After this happens, you will leave the office to heal for an extended period of time—when you return, we can provide a custom restoration that has been specially made to give you back your full, confident smile.

What To Expect When Your Smile Is Fully Restored

Restorative dental work can have cosmetic and functional benefits. As soon as your restoration is in place, you can look in the mirror and see a smile that looks more youthful, confident, and healthy. The prosthetic appliance will be held in position so that you can trust it to support you when you bite and chew food, which can help you return to a more varied diet that helps you sustain your health. Over time, there is something that you will not see. Because your implant is in place and able to stimulate your jawbone, you will not have to observe a loss of bone density in your jaw, something that can impact your oral health as well as your appearance.
