Welcome to Word of Mouth Dental Dental Practice

 The term “dental implant” refers only to the small titanium post that is  implanted into the jaw. For a single tooth restoration, an abutment is  attached to the dental implant, and then the abutment is used to anchor a  crown that replaces the visible portion of the missing tooth. The crown  is a perfect replica of the tooth you’re missing and this restoration  option looks and functions exactly like a natural tooth. 

 If three or more adjacent teeth are missing, we can use  implant-supported bridges to replace them. Unlike traditional bridges  which are supported by crowns, these bridges are held in place by two  dental implants which replace the outermost missing teeth. 

At Word of Mouth Dental Dental Practice, we believe that patient education is an important part of maintaining good oral health. We provide our patients with the information they need to make informed decisions about their dental care. Visit our blog to learn more about oral health and dental care.

If  a full upper or lower arch of teeth needs to be replaced, we can use  this type of restoration, which involves four dental implants used as  anchors to hold prosthetic teeth in place.

Dental implants have a  high success rate and patients are overwhelmingly happy with the  results, which appear natural and restore function to their teeth. With  proper care, which includes good oral hygiene habits, regular oral  exams, and thorough dental cleanings to remove damaging plaque and  tartar, dental implants can last a lifetime.
