Say Goodbye to Tooth Gaps with Dental Implants

When you are missing a tooth or two, it’s not just an aesthetic issue. Missing teeth affect your speech, how you eat, and your overall appearance. Would you like to rebuild your smile after tooth loss? While there are other restorative procedures, none of these offer permanent and satisfying results like dental implants.

How long have you waited to get your dream smile? It’s time to get rid of that gap-toothed grin with Dr. Mark Wright, a talented implant dentist in Colorado Springs, Colorado. If a missing tooth denies you happiness, trust Mark H. Wright DDS to make things right with a dental implant.

What’s the dental implant procedure like?

If you have chosen Dr. Mark Wright to restore your dental implants, you have made one of the best decisions in life. Dr. Wright has extensive training and experience in restoring implants. In addition, he uses the latest technology for comfort, effectiveness, and long-lasting results.

A dental implant acts as the root of your tooth. It’s a titanium post inserted in your jawbone to provide support for your new artificial tooth. Since dental implants are made of biocompatible materials, as they heal, they fuse with the jawbone, becoming part of your jawbone’s anatomy.

Dr. Wright places an abutment where the artificial tooth (prosthetic tooth) will be attached when your implants heal. Then, he will take a digital impression and send the scan to the lab for the prosthetic tooth to be made. In your final dentist visit, the artificial tooth will be fitted, giving you a brand-new smile. 

Who is a good candidate for dental implants?

At Mark H. Wright DDS, we are all about devising a personalized treatment that works for you. For example, if you miss one tooth, your needs differ significantly from a person missing multiple teeth. So, when you visit us, we will go through different options to find the best one for you.

You still want to know if you are a candidate for a dental implant. Well, the procedure applies to almost everyone, even those with severe jawbone loss. A while back, if you had severe jawbone loss, getting a dental implant was impossible. However, bone grafting has made it possible for persons with insufficient bone density to receive implants successfully.

But, if you are a smoker or have chronic diseases like diabetes or leukemia, these situations may affect the dental implant healing process. As such, you should discuss with your dentist to personalize your treatment or consider other restorative procedures.
