When you lose an adult tooth, you might get a surprise from the Tooth Fairy, but your tooth isn't going to grow back. The dangers of missing teeth can impact your dental and even overall health. The best way to replace a missing tooth today is a dental implant.

At Newman Family Dentistry, we will provide you dental implants that look and function like real teeth and can last you a lifetime. Perhaps the best thing about this procedure is that it's nearly pain free.

What is a dental implant?

A dental implant consists of a root-like structure, usually made of titanium, that fits snugly in the bone of your jaw where a tooth is missing. The bone will grow around the implant to create a stable bond. This implant can then be used as an anchor for a prosthetic tooth, a bridge, or a full denture.

Benefits of dental implants

There are many benefits of dental implants beyond just providing cosmetic value. They restore full function and help you maintain oral health.

Is the procedure really pain free?

Most dental implant patients report very little pain following a procedure. Since there is no feeling in your bone, you won't experience pain as a result of drilling or placement of the implant. The procedure requires only a minor incision in the gum tissue, so you may decide to take an over-the-counter pain reliever, but you probably won't need anything stronger than that.
