Dental Implants in Wesley Chapel

Dental implants are small screws or posts made of biocompatible metal that are placed into the jawbone to anchor dental restorations. Essential, dental implants replace the roots of the teeth you are missing. After implant surgery, your jawbone fuses with the implants, providing a stable base for your dental restoration.

Porcelain implant supported bridges look and feel realistic, restoring both function and appearance after tooth loss. Implant supported bridges are generally considered superior to traditional bridges because they do not require support from adjacent teeth like a traditional bridge does. The crowns required to hold a traditional bridge in place damage healthy tooth structures and place stress on the supporting teeth.

Dental implant surgery isn’t painful at all, as we numb the area thoroughly before we begin any work. As the anesthesia wears off in the hours after your surgery, you will begin to experience some discomfort, but most patients describe it as mild. We will provide you with aftercare instructions to help keep you comfortable.
