Holding A Crown With A Dental Implant

If you have prosthetic work done, will you be able to trust your restoration to absorb pressure when you bite and chew? Will it cause issues for neighboring teeth? What can treatment do to improve your oral health? Tooth loss can certainly be an upsetting experience, but with the right restoration, you can regain your full smile as well as your oral health! Our Livonia/Detroit, MI dentist’s office is here to help you replace a lost tooth with a dental crown kept in position with a dental implant. Implants offer the kind of stability you need to comfortably bite and chew, and it can also offer oral health benefits by supporting your jaw health.

Receiving A Lasting Restoration To Replace A Lost Tooth

Tooth loss is something that can seriously impact your quality of life and appearance, and it can create difficulties with your bite function. To fully address the problem, you can arrange treatment that includes the placement and restoration of a dental implant. Through this arrangement, you can have a restoration that remains in place permanently, one that is stable enough to aid you in biting and chewing. Because your implant can hold a lifelike crown, this work can enable you to regain your confidence in the way you look.

How A Dental Implant Keeps A Lifelike Crown Secure

Your dental implant keeps your restoration held to your jawbone in an arrangement that mirrors the support that a tooth’s roots provide. The process of placing the implant calls for a careful review of your jaw and oral structures, which helps to determine just the right location and angle of placement. When you heal, you will return to have a custom restoration secured to it. Once in position, your custom dental crown will stay in place without bothering neighboring teeth, and without interfering with your ability to speak and eat. When using the crown to bite and chew, you create stimulation in your jawbone that will help you preserve your bite function.

Implants Also Help Support Larger Restorations

With a set of dental implants, we have the ability to keep larger restorations in place. Dental bridges, partial dentures, and even full dentures can be permanently secured so that they offer comfort, bite support, and cosmetic benefits. Using implants to hold these restorations can also help you sustain jawbone health and density.
