Dental Implants Near Fort Thomas, KY
Where a filling or bridge only addresses the gap you can see, a dental implant restores the tooth from its root. The treatment starts with a titanium post placed into the jawbone. Over several months that post grows together with the bone, giving us a dependable anchor for a crown, bridge, or full row of fixed teeth. Because the implant stands on its own, the healthy teeth beside it stay intact instead of being ground down for a bridge. And because it drives chewing force into the jaw, the bone keeps getting the stimulation a denture would leave it without. We see patients from Fort Thomas and throughout Campbell County for single tooth cases as well as full mouth reconstruction.
Full Arch Dental Implants
For a full upper or lower arch, we replace the whole row using four to six implants, a technique you might hear called All-on-4 or All-on-6. The outcome is a permanent set of teeth fastened to the bone, so there is no adhesive to apply, no plate across the roof of your mouth, and no slipping while you eat or talk.
