Replace a Missing Tooth with Dental Implants
A dental implant can give you back your smile! Dental implants replace missing teeth with a long-lasting restoration that functions as a natural tooth. A dental implant uses a three-part tooth restoration made up of a post, abutment and dental crown. If you are interested in dental implants in St. Augustine, FL, our team can schedule a consultation to evaluate your smile and build a custom treatment plan that works for you!
Benefits of Dental Implants:
- Lasting solution
- Doesn’t rely on surrounding teeth for support
- Blends in naturally with your smile
- Helps preserve jaw bone
Bone Grafting Can Restore Lost Bone
For treatments such as dental implants, bone grafting is sometimes necessary before the restoration can be placed. Bone grafting increases the amount of bone in the jaw to be able to properly support a dental implant. During a consultation for treatment, your dentist will inform you if bone grafting is necessary. Bone grafting is a simple, yet effective procedure that will give you the help that you need to be able to reach your dental goals and improve your smile!
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Provides Faster Healing
Platelet-Rich Plasma is a method used to lessen pain for oral surgery patients and improve the healing process. With PRP, you can have a dental experience with less pain in a way that is both safe and convenient. PRP encourages bone and tissue growth and can be beneficial in the healing process. Your dentist can discuss the benefits of PRP with you if recommended during your oral treatment.
