Dental implants offer a healthy, long-lasting solution to tooth loss. They offer unparalleled support to partial or full dentures and can replace traditional fixed dental bridges. Our San Pedro dental implants expert can use dental implants to replace a single lost tooth or many lost teeth.

A dental implant is an artificial tooth root that can support porcelain crowns, dental bridges or dentures. Our expert in dental implants in San Pedro surgically implants the device into the jawbone, which heals around it. An attractive, natural-looking prosthetic tooth is added to complete the restoration. An implant is the longest-lasting, most natural solution to tooth loss that is available today.

Our San Pedro dental implants expert may recommend dental implants to:

•    Restore one or more missing teeth without relying on gums or adjacent teeth for support
•    Restore your confident smile
•    Restore your ability to chew and speak comfortably and easily
•    Restore your facial appearance
•    Resolve bite or joint problems and prevent teeth from drifting into the gap
•    Create a comfortable, sturdy support for dental bridges or dentures

San Pedro Dental Implants

If you are a candidate for dental implants, our dentist will begin with a comprehensive evaluation. We may take dental X-rays to identify the bone, gum tissue and other underlying structures, and dental impressions will be made. The area will be numbed, and the implant will be surgically placed. The healing process can take up to six months, during which the bone will integrate with the implant. If necessary, an abutment will then be attached to the implant, and the artificial teeth will be made, fitted and bonded to the post.

After the implant procedure, good dental hygiene that includes both brushing and flossing, a healthy diet and routine dental care can all promote healing. Avoid smoking, which can increase your risk of post-procedure complications, and follow our dentist’s after-care instructions for the best results.

Not all patients are candidates for dental implants. However, if you are missing one or more teeth, dental implants may be an option for you. Contact our expert in dental implants in San Pedro today to learn more or to schedule your consultation.
