Implant Restoration

Implant Restoration in Reno, NV

Implant restorations are a state-of-the-art method for restoring your smile following tooth loss or extraction. Dental implants are inserted in the jawbone and function like roots to hold tooth restorations in place, including crowns, bridgework, or implant-supported dentures. Dr. Michael Herrera, the experienced dentist at the Herrera Dental Practice in Reno, NV, can restore beauty and function to your smile with implant restorations.

Dental Implants

Implant restoration is the most secure tooth-replacement method available today. This state-of-the-art method utilizes dental implants, which are tiny metal posts, to anchor replacement teeth, such as crowns or a dental bridge. The dental implants are strategically inserted into the jawbone. Over time, the metal and bone become permanently fused, which is what makes dental implants so secure.

The process of metal and bone fusing is called osseointegration and takes a few months. Once the process is complete, tooth restorations can be attached to the dental implants. Tooth restorations include dental crowns, bridgework, and implant-supported dentures. Implant restoration is a versatile option. Whether you are only missing a single tooth or have large gaps where multiple teeth are missing, an implant restoration can be used to restore your smile.

Candidates for Implant Restoration

Not everyone dealing with tooth loss will be a candidate for implant restoration. Since the dental implants are inserted in the jawbone, there must be enough bone tissue for this to work. Unfortunately, the reality of tooth loss is that bone loss tends to follow. The body reabsorbs bone tissue that is not supporting teeth. The highly skilled dentist at our Reno dental practice can determine if you have enough bone tissue to be a candidate for implant restoration.

Benefits of Implant Restoration

Implant restoration offers numerous benefits. Not only does it restore beauty to your smile by filling in the gaps where teeth are missing, but it also restores function. With missing teeth replaced through implant restoration, you’ll be able to bite and chew a greater variety of foods more easily. Implant restoration also reduces or eliminates many of the unfortunate side effects of tooth loss, such as preserving bone tissue by preventing the body from reabsorbing it.

Some of the many benefits of implant restoration include:

  • Preserving bone tissue
  • Replacing missing or extracted teeth
  • Restoring biting and chewing functions
  • Preventing teeth from shifting out of place
  • Reducing facial drooping or sagging due to tooth loss
  • Reducing strain on teeth that were compensating for missing ones
  • Improving speech altered by gaps in your smile
  • Longest lasting tooth replacement solution
     

Implant restoration is a permanent solution to restoring your smile after tooth loss. Dr. Herrera can determine if you are a candidate for this exciting tooth-replacement method.
