Dental Implants Near Erlanger, KY
A dental implant does more than fill the space where a tooth used to be. It replaces the tooth at the root. We set a titanium post into the jawbone, let it fuse with the bone over the course of several months, and then use it to support a crown, a bridge, or a full arch of permanent teeth. Compared with a bridge, an implant does not force us to grind down the good teeth nearby, and compared with a denture, it sends chewing pressure into the jaw so the bone continues to be stimulated. Patients visit us from Erlanger and neighboring parts of Kenton County for single tooth replacement all the way through full mouth reconstruction.
Full Arch Dental Implants
Full arch implants replace a complete upper or lower row of teeth with four to six implants, often described as All-on-4 or All-on-6. You end up with a fixed set of teeth anchored into the bone. No adhesive is involved, nothing sits across the roof of your mouth, and nothing moves out of place while you eat or speak.
