Utilizing the best that restorative dentistry has to offer, dental implants are the best available treatment for replacing missing teeth and offer comfortable, long lasting results to patients.
Dental implants are a highly specialized form of dental care, requiring the talents of many different expert specialists to craft an aesthetically pleasing and functional replacement tooth. Dr. Grapevine of G Family Dentistry, provides comprehensive implant treatment plans for patients seeking dental implants in the Plano, TX community today, working with a highly experienced local team to orchestrate the detailed process of placing a beautifully crafted prosthetic tooth.
The term ‘dental implant’ refers not to the prosthetic tooth itself, but to the titanium rod that must be placed in a patient’s jaw as an artificial root for the replacement tooth, which is usually crafted from porcelain like most dental crowns. Dental implants are an ideal method of tooth replacement because the titanium rod helps prevent the bone loss that naturally occurs from missing teeth. The loss of even a single tooth weakens the jaw bone and can put other teeth at increased risk. Dental implants help maintain the structure of the jaw bone, and can even help prevent further tooth loss that can be caused by a compromised jaw bone.
Although surgery is required for the initial placement of the titanium implant, dental implant surgery is a minimally invasive procedure with a quick recovery and maximum reward. Dr. Grapevine strives to bring dental implant patients peace of mind in every step of the process, from initial placement of the implant to final placement and comprehensive aftercare to ensure a perfect fit and a successful transplant. In addition to placing the final prosthetic tooth, Dr. Grapevine is proud to coordinate the many different services required for a successful and convenient dental implant procedure, bringing this revolutionary tooth replacement technique to the residents of Plano, TX.
