What Kind of Implant Restoration is Best for You?
Modern dentistry gives you numerous restorative options for replacing lost teeth. Of these options, many people choose dental implants for good reasons. Natural-looking teeth implants not only restore your smile’s attractive appearance, but they also offer improved stability for biting and chewing. You can explore the different types of implants available at the James M. Moran DDS, Fallbrook, California office.

Types of Implant Restorations
Implants offer three options for restoring your smile:
- Single implants – used to replace one or several missing teeth individually. This implant comprises a titanium post to replace the root of your tooth, an articulation to hold your new tooth, and a dental crown to act like your new tooth
- Implant-supported bridge – used to replace multiple missing teeth in a row. This bridge uses implants for support as opposed to dental crowns placed on adjacent teeth
- Implant-supported dentures – used to replace an entire arch or all of your teeth. Your dentures are supported by all on four or all on six implants inserted into your jaw at strategic places

Advantages of Implant Restorative Treatments
With dental implants, you get replacement teeth that are stable, strong, secure, and long-lasting. The implant itself (titanium post) can last a lifetime, while your new prosthetics can last 10 years or longer, depending on their use. With implants, you also benefit from the following:
- Natural-looking appearance – Your crown, bridge, or dentures can be custom-designed to give you an eye-catching, natural-looking smile.
- Improved oral health – Implants act like replacement tooth roots to prevent bone loss that often occurs when you lose natural teeth. This keeps your jaw and face from sagging. Implants also keep your remaining natural teeth in alignment to preserve your bite and avoid unnecessary wear and tear on your teeth.
- Greater comfort and functionality – Implants feel and function like natural teeth. Because the titanium post is firmly embedded into your jaw, your new prosthetics will never slip or slide when talking or eating.
