Are Single Implants Right for You?
When the loss of a tooth happens, a single implant to replace your front tooth or back tooth can be the solution. Implants are made to look and function in the same way as your natural teeth. They are a permanent treatment and are manufactured from titanium posts, screwed into your jawbone. Once this area is healed, the crown (or tooth part) can be placed onto the top of the implant.
In the process, your smile will be restored. Single implants also offer the durable option you want—one that can last a lifetime when properly cared for—giving you back your confidence.
How a Single Tooth Dental Implant Works
At Burns Dentistry, we use the most advanced imaging technology to deliver optimal results for your new single implant. We even take into account the shade and size of your natural teeth, ensuring the implant provides a seamless look compared to the rest of your teeth.
This approach means you’ll get both beauty and function with your new single tooth dental implants. You can chew, eat, and speak with comfort—and smile with confidence.
To get there, we’ll first take a 3-D image of your mouth and find the location of nerves and other important anatomical details, like the dimensions of your jaw and the bone density. Then, using our state-of-the-art implant placement software, we’ll identify the best location for your new dental implant, including depth and angle. This ensures stability over time and the most successful outcome.
Once your customized dental implant is created, one of our surgical specialists will then insert it into your mouth. A single tooth dental implant can usually be done in approximately one hour unless a tooth extraction is needed.
