Get dental implants instead of dentures in West Haven and Milford CT

Implant dentistry is the modern solution to missing teeth

Dental implants are becoming a popular way for individuals to solve the problem presented by a missing tooth or multiple missing teeth. Certainly, no one wants to have a missing tooth, and while getting dentures or a dental bridge can be a perfectly acceptable and cost-effective solution to this problem, an implant dentist can provide a more permanent solution. Implant dentists offer you replacement teeth that are not only permanent and non-removable, but are anchored to your jawbone, just like your natural teeth.

At Shoreline Dental Care in West Haven and Milford CT, local implant dentist Dr. Joseph Tartagni and his team of expert professionals are helping people with dental implants to correct their smiles and to be able to chew and eat the healthy foods their bodies require.

Why would I want a dental implant?

Often, when someone is missing one or two teeth, they will receive a dental bridge, which essentially bridges the gap between two teeth by attaching a prosthetic tooth to the surrounding existing teeth. If even more teeth are missing, then dentures might be a more applicable solution to the problem. Indeed, dental bridges and dentures can be essential to maintaining the proper alignment of teeth and correcting any chewing difficulties which might have been caused by the missing tooth.

However, for those patients who want a more permanent solution, dental implants, which are anchored directly to the jawbone, can provide a permanent base to which dentures and bridges can be securely attached. Or, a single prosthetic tooth can be attached in the missing space between two teeth via an implant.

How does it work?

Dental implant procedures are completed via minor dental surgery that involves the implantation of a titanium anchor into the jawbone. While patients must have an adequate amount of bone density in their jawbone to accept the implant, in the vast majority of cases jawbone density is not an issue. In fact, most patients are found to be excellent candidates to receive a dental implant, which statistically touts a 95% success rate.

After the titanium implant has been installed and the jawbone has had adequate time to grow and fuse around the titanium, then the prosthetic tooth, denture, or bridge can be mounted onto the implant.
