Implant Dentistry in Littleton, Colorado: Replace Missing Teeth

Missing teeth can affect not only the way you look, but also how well your smile functions, which can affect the quality of your life and your overall health. Today, we have an excellent solution for missing teeth: dental implants.

 

Implant Dentistry In Littleton

Dentists have been placing implants for more than twenty years, using them as natural substitutes for natural tooth roots. Here’s how the procedure works: An implant is surgically placed in your jaw by a dentist who specializes in implant dentistry (typically an oral surgeon, periodontist, or endodontist), and then we attach a replacement tooth to it. Both of our dentists, Dr. Porter and Dr. Durbon, have successfully performed implant dentistry to support crowns, bridges, and even dentures.

 

Whether you’re missing one or several teeth, you could benefit from implant dentistry. Once they’re placed, you care for your dental implants the same as your would your natural teeth, and with proper oral hygiene and regular exams, they should last for years to come.

 

Littleton Implant Dentists – Teamwork’s Involved

If you’re considering having an implant placed, please let us know. While the dentist who will embed the implant is skilled at surgery, our dentists, Dr. Porter and Dr. Durbon, have a better idea of how the replacement will look and feel in your mouth and how it will perform in relation to the rest of your bite.

 

If the dental implant’s placed at an incorrect angle, it’s more difficult to fabricate the best restoration possible. For the surgery itself, we’ll refer you to one of our trusted colleagues who practices near our office in Littleton.

 

If you have any further questions about dental implants or would like to schedule an appointment, please call (303) 224-9291.

 

Our dental practice is located at 26 W. Dry Creek Circle in Littleton, just off Dry Creek and Broadway.
