Dental Implants

      A great alternative to replacing a missing tooth is a dental implant. It is really the closest thing to a natural tooth. This patient was missing a bicuspid. The two teeth next to the space have no fillings or restorations, so we did not want to crown them to place a bridge. This first picture is with our abutement positioned in the implant that was placed four months earlier.

       The second picture is the final crown cemented on the abutement. The result looks very natural and our patient can brush and floss like it is a natural tooth. It is permanently cemented so the pateint forgets it is even there.
