Dental implants are the best way to replace missing teeth. Implants can osseointegrate into the bones of your jaw, meaning they provide a stable base for various dental restorations. We can use dental implants to replace a single tooth, a few missing teeth, or even a full arch of teeth. At Conover Family Dental, we have been working with dental implants since the 1980s. You can be confident that you are working with an experienced team and a proven technology.

Single Missing Teeth
Dental implants are the preferred replacement for a single missing tooth because they are more conservative than a bridge. To make a bridge, the teeth on either side of the missing tooth have to be drilled, much like a crown, so the bridge has something to hold onto. With an implant, we can avoid drilling on healthy teeth because the implant is retained by your jaw. We then place a crown on top of the implant, which functions and looks like a normal tooth.
A Better, Healthier Solution Than Dentures Or Partials
If you have been wearing a denture or a partial and are frustrated with the fact that it is unstable and uncomfortable, then dental implants can really change your life. Implants can improve your confidence and comfort, but the benefits do not end there. Wearing conventional dentures affects your ability to eat and can have negative effects on your nutrition. As a result, your overall health can suffer. Implants can improve your chewing function by making your replacement teeth much more stable.
