How Many Teeth Can Be Replaced By Dental Implants?
Having an amazing, full set of teeth that are healthy, bright, and straight, with little to no imperfections, is the type of smile that most people would want to have. A beautiful smile impacts a person’s overall appearance, self-confidence, and even their overall health. However, when people have a smile that is chipped, damaged, or they have missing teeth, then they may be wondering what options are available to restore their smile.
Dental implants at our office by Gilbert, AZ are a fantastic way for people to restore the look and function of their smile.
Depending On The Amount Of Teeth I’m Missing, What Types Of Dental Implants Can I Get?
Dental implants by Gilbert, AZ, provide exceptional versatility. They are made of three main components: the dental implant post (dental screw or tooth root replacement), the abutment (placed on top of the post), and the prosthesis/crown (fully secured by the dental abutment and post into the patient’s jawbone).
Dental implants can be used to replace one or more teeth. Here are the types of dental implant options patients can use to replace their tooth or teeth:
Single Dental Implants:
A single dental implant is used to replace one tooth.
Multiple Dental Implants:
Multiple dental implants can replace one or more teeth. Multiple dental implants can replace a few teeth in a row, or single teeth in various parts of the patient’s mouth.
Implant Supported Dentures:
Implant supported dentures use two or more dental implants to securely support a denture!
Full Mouth Dental Implants:
With full mouth dental implants, a full arch of missing teeth can be replaced with four or more dental implants that are used to support a full arch prosthesis.
No matter what type of dental implant procedure patients choose to get treated with, dental implants can give patients a permanent new smile because the dental implant post keeps the jawbone healthy and strong!
