What Is Dental Implant Restoration?
After a titanium implant post is placed in the jaw, it fuses directly with your natural bone over the next several months. Once the post integrates, it needs a final restoration on top to complete the look.
The process for an implant restoration in Burke includes designing, fitting, and attaching the artificial tooth to the top of the implant post. Depending on how many teeth you need to replace, your restoration may consist of:
- Single-Unit Crown: A custom porcelain Implant Crown in Burke that matches the look of surrounding teeth.
- Implant Bridge: An implant-supported bridge attaches to two or more implant posts to replace a row of missing teeth.
- Full-Arch Prosthetic: Snap-on or fixed dentures can replace the entire lower or upper jaw. Implant-supported dentures offer a comfortable and secure solution.
