Dental Implants
Imagine replacing a missing tooth with something that looks, feels, and functions like a natural tooth—dental implants in Worthington, Ohio, make this a reality. These marvels of modern dentistry consist of a titanium post that integrates with your jawbone, topped with a custom crown.
Here’s why dental implants are a game-changer:
- Unmatched Durability: With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime.
- Preserve Jawbone Health: Implants stimulate and preserve your jawbone, preventing bone loss.
- Natural Look and Feel: Each crown is custom-made to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
Our Implant Journey
- Personalized Consultation: We start with a detailed examination and advanced imaging to plan your implant placement meticulously.
Surgical Placement: The titanium post is surgically inserted into your jawbone.
Healing Phase: Over several months, the post fuses with your jawbone in a process called osseointegration.
Final Restoration: A custom-made crown is attached, completing your smile transformation.
One Visit Crowns (CEREC)
One Visit Crowns (CEREC) are like protective armor for your teeth. They cover and strengthen damaged teeth, restoring their function and appearance.
Here’s why crowns are essential:
- Protection: Shields weakened teeth from further damage.
- Aesthetic Enhancement: Custom crowns match the color and shape of your natural teeth.
- Restored Function: Allows you to chew and speak with ease.
The Crown Process:
- Preparation: The damaged tooth is reshaped, and impressions are taken.
- Temporary Crown: A temporary crown is placed while your permanent crown is crafted.
- Permanent Placement: The custom crown is bonded to your tooth, restoring its strength and beauty.
