Dental Implants
Blue Springs, you can trust Dr. Alan Foster and his team to provide the very best implant dentistry in the area. If you’re missing teeth then dental implants are a viable option for you to consider.
What Are Implants?
A dental implant is a small, surgical-grade titanium post that is implanted below the gum to act as the root for an artificial tooth. Once inserted, the implant will fuse to the jaw bone to remain sturdily in place. You then have the option of either removable or non-removable replacement teeth that attach to these root structures.
What Are The Benefits?
Let Dr. Foster show you the benefits of dental implants, Blue Springs. The key factor that sets implants apart from other options is the sturdiness. Dental implants fuse directly to your jaw bone, which creates a stable support structure for replacement teeth. You can use dentures, bridges or individual teeth, all of which can be mounted to the implants and will not slip or shift around. The replacement teeth are fully functional so you won’t have as many problems chewing food. This will let you enjoy a wider variety of foods, which will instantly improve your nutrition.
Functionality aside, dental implants will also improve the look of your smile. No more unsightly gaps between teeth. The replacement teeth look so natural that no one will be able to tell the difference. They not only look natural, but they feel natural. Conventional, removable dentures rely on pastes and bonds to stay in place and can easily loosen up over the course of the day. They require daily, time-consuming maintenance and are rarely comfortable. You really can’t beat the stability of our quality implant dentistry. Blue Springs patients, let us show you the difference.
