Single-Tooth Dental Implants

Advantages of dental implants

Dental implants have several advantages over other tooth replacement options. Unlike a dental bridge, an implant can replace a tooth without sacrificing the health and structure of any neighboring teeth. Implants also integrate with your jawbone, helping to keep the supporting bone healthy and intact so that your teeth and implant remain stable and secure in your mouth. Implants are generally more aesthetic and easier to keep clean with regular brushing and flossing. Implants are considered the ideal replacement method for missing teeth because they look, feel and function like your natural teeth.

Our periodontists, Dr. Luis Benitez and Dr. Veronica Longville, will determine if dental implants in Greensboro, North Carolina are the best option for you.
