Here are a few such solutions that we may discuss during your consultation.
Dental Bridges
If you are missing one or several teeth, dental bridges are an ideal solution for replacing them. For this procedure to work, you need to have remaining healthy teeth that can serve as anchors for the bridge. Those suffering from major tooth loss may not be a good candidate for dental bridges, since a dental bridge requires healthy, natural teeth to hold it in place. Otherwise, they are a good non-surgical solution for tooth loss and can look completely natural. If you live in the Johns Creek area and are tired of wearing dentures or are considering tooth replacement options, we invite you to call 770-623-1427 and learn more.
Dental Implants
At Johns Creek Dentistry, we often discuss the benefits of dental implants with our patients. It is important to deal with tooth loss as soon as possible. After losing the tooth, the jawbone will no longer receive stimulation from that area. Without stimulation, the body begins to think the jawbone is no longer necessary and leaches calcium from the area. This process of resorption can lead to devastating changes in the face, creating a sunken appearance. Dental implants are the best solution for preventing this since an implant replaces both the tooth and root. In this procedure, we will implant a titanium rod under the gums and secure it to the jawbone. The bone and metal will fuse together through the process of osseointegration. Once the process is complete, we can secure an artificial tooth to the post. The result is a tooth that looks, feels, and behaves entirely natural. If you lead an active lifestyle and do not want to be constrained by tooth loss, dental implants are the best option for you. If you live in Johns Creek, GA, you have access to dental care, and we recommend that you call to learn more about this innovative procedure.
Dental Veneers
One of the most common dental procedures is the placing of dental veneers. This type of cosmetic dental care is popular because of the variety of issues it can correct. A veneer is a thin shell that we bond to the surface of the tooth. We will only need to remove a small portion of the enamel prior to the bonding procedure, making veneers a minimally-invasive procedure. Veneers can create beautiful smiles for everyone, including celebrities, college students, brides, and grandparents. We encourage you to call and schedule an appointment with Johns Creek Dentistry to learn more about this option.
