Dental Implant Restoration
At Truist Dental, Dr. Thirtha offers advanced dental implant restorations to replace missing teeth and restore your smile’s natural function and beauty. Dental implants are small, titanium posts that are placed in the jawbone to act as artificial tooth roots. Once healed, they are restored with a custom crown, bridge, or implant-supported denture—creating a stable and long-lasting replacement that looks and feels like your natural teeth.
Dental implant procedures are done here in our office, however in certain cases, we partner with trusted periodontists and oral surgeons to help ensure every step of your implant treatment is precise and comfortable. Dr. Thirtha’s restorative expertise will help you to regain proper chewing function, clear speech, and the confidence to smile again.
The Impact of Tooth Loss
Tooth loss caused by decay, gum disease, or trauma can have lasting effects on your oral health. When gaps are left untreated, surrounding teeth often shift into open spaces, leading to bite misalignment and uneven wear. Over time, this can cause cracked teeth, jaw discomfort, or even additional tooth loss. Dental implants can help protect your oral health so you can enjoy a stronger, more balanced smile for years to come.
Tooth Replacement Options
Single Tooth
Dental Implants are often the preferred approach to replace a single missing tooth rather than a traditional dental bridge, which involves drilling of surrounding teeth that may not need treatment otherwise. A single tooth implant can be restored with a porcelain crown to create a natural-looking result without disturbing adjacent teeth.
Multiple Teeth
In the case of multiple missing teeth when a bridge is necessary, one or more dental implants can create support where none exists, such as in missing back teeth or multiple front teeth. Implants extend the coverage area of the bridge, thus providing greater biting and chewing function for the patient.
Denture Stabilization
For a patient struggling with loose dentures, dental implants can be used as anchors to secure a complete or partial denture. Implant-supported dentures can eliminate slipping so you can eat, talk and laugh again with confidence.
