What are dental implants and where do I go to get them?
Replacing missing teeth can be completed under one roof at Tryon Family Dentistry. This offers consistent, convenient care for patients with missing teeth. We can work with you on an individual basis to develop a personal treatment plan that addresses both oral health and aesthetic goals.
Dental implants can restore the most natural chewing function and the ability to speak with confidence with long-term results. We can combine cosmetic dentistry with restorative treatments for a total smile makeover.
Dental implants are by far the best tooth replacement option that modern dentistry has to offer, and this is because they replace both your root and your tooth. An implant is a titanium post that will be placed into your bone during a surgical procedure. Because titanium is biocompatible, integration happens naturally over time through a process called osseointegration, creating a secure foundation for your new tooth while also protecting your bone from deterioration.
Tryon Family Dentistry offers single tooth restorations, multiple teeth placement, same day tooth replacement, implant supported dentures, and partial or complete snap-in dentures.
Am I a candidate for Dental Implants?
If you would like to learn more about dental implants, the first place to start is a consultation with your Raleigh and Cary dentist at Tryon Family Dentistry. We will use x-rays, 3-D imaging, and a thorough examination to determine if you have enough bone to properly support the implant.
If you lack healthy bone structure, we may recommend a bone grafting procedure to build up your jawbone. We will also discuss with you whether you are a candidate for a same-day dental implant.
What Is Invisalign?
Instead of relying on metal brackets and wires to move teeth, Invisalign uses clear plastic aligners custom designed for each patient’s individual treatment plan. The aligners are designed to fit snugly over your teeth so they don’t interfere with your normal activities or your speech. Because they are clear, they are hardly noticeable and provide the utmost discretion during treatment.
