Dental Implants

A Secure Foundation for Replacement Teeth

A lost tooth carries more than just the tooth itself – it also carries the roots. When permanent teeth are lost, the roots are lost too. When teeth were missing, the only options used to be bridges or dentures. Now, dental implants offer you a more permanent solution to your lost tooth problem. They are designed to look and feel like the teeth surrounding them just like bridges and dentures, but dental implants fuse with the bone to ensure that they stay permanently.

Teeth can be lost for a variety of reasons, such as:

• Decay
• Gingivitis
• Injuries

Mumbles and slurs due to ill-fitting dentures can become a thing of the past, and you will no longer have to endure the discomfort of removable dentures. Dental implants allow you to enjoy your favorite foods that you might have avoided with dentures, and with the proper maintenance, they can last a lifetime. If you’re ready to ditch your old dentures or avoid bridges, be sure to check out our Falls Church dentist office. Give us a call at (703) 237-4521.
