Dental implants are the only tooth replacement option that mirrors the natural anatomy and durability of natural teeth. Once integrated with the bone that supports them, dental implants can last a lifetime. Dr. Wes Guenther offers everything from immediate single tooth dental implants to snap-on dentures to “all-on” implant systems such as All-on-4.
A dental implant is a biocompatible device that is shaped similarly to a tooth root. It’s set into the bone where your tooth is missing and can support anything from a fixed crown to a multi-tooth bridge or “all-on” prosthesis. Once they’re integrated with your bone, simply care for them like you would natural teeth, and they’re capable of lasting for the rest of your life.
We use BioHorizons dental implant designs that are capable of offering immediate dental implant restoration so that you never go with a visibly missing tooth. Individual implants are topped off with a dental crown for a lifelike tooth replacement that looks and feels as great as the real thing.
Options like “All-on-4” and “All-on-6” implants allow you to replace an entire arch of teeth with just 4-6 implants total. Because implants are extremely durable, there’s no need to use an individual implant for each tooth that’s missing. Instead, Dr. Guenther can design a hybrid, fixed appliance that follows the natural curvature of your smile. These “all on” systems are permanently set into place, so no removable prosthetics are needed.
If you’re debating between getting dental implants or dentures, why not consider a snap-on overdenture instead? We can use 2-4 traditional or mini dental implants to provide added stability to your removable prosthesis for all-day comfort. No messy denture pastes are needed!
