One of the most effective and attractive ways of replacing missing teeth is through the use of dental implants. Implants look and feel natural and can give you a stronger, healthier jaw. If you are interested in learning more about dental implants in Lincoln Park, Chicago, Illinois, and would like to find out if you are a good candidate, call Pure Design Dentistry at 773-340-2016 today to plan your appointment with our dentist, Dr. Aaron Diehl.
No one wants to have a gap in their smile, and with implants from our dentist, you do not have to. In addition to being embarrassing or unappealing, a missing tooth can affect the alignment of the rest of your teeth and contribute to a weakening of the jawbone. With dental implants, we can replace your missing tooth and keep your smile and jawbone strong.
An implant is made of three main parts:
- The post, which acts as the new root of the tooth, giving the implant stability and making it feel just like a natural tooth.
- The abutment, which connects the other two parts of the implant together.
- The restoration, which acts as the surface of your new tooth; this is often a crown to replace a single tooth, but it can be a bridge or even a full denture to replace multiple teeth.
Receiving a dental implant can take a longer time than other restorations, but once your implant is complete, you will have the most stable and natural tooth replacement option out there. Call our office today to get started!
