On average, getting a dental implant takes three to nine months. This includes removing the existing tooth (if needed), surgically placing the implant, allowing the bone to heal and fuse with the implant, and creating and placing the implant restoration (crown, bridge, or denture).

According to the CDC, 47.2% of adults aged 30 years and older have some form of periodontal (gum) disease. While it may seem harmless, especially considering how many people have it, the truth is it's actually very serious. Not only does periodontal disease impact your oral health, but it can also cause or aggravate overall health issues. This includes heart disease, stroke, and more! The easiest way to prevent gum disease is to brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, floss daily, and visit us for routine checkups and cleanings.

Missing one tooth, let alone more, can cause a host of problems. This includes difficulty chewing, speech impairment, bite changes, jaw pain, adjacent teeth shifting to the gap followed by other teeth moving out of place, premature aging, sunken facial appearance, lowered confidence, and more. Luckily, there are multiple options for replacing missing teeth. Contact us for a consultation: https://www.southshoreprosthodontics.com/services/dental-implants/.

A dental implant is an excellent choice for replacing a missing, broken, or severely decayed tooth. It's the only restoration that'll replace an entire tooth from root to crown. This helps to make the implant look, feel, and function like a real tooth. No one will notice!

The short answer: Professional tooth whitening by a dentist. Why? It'll work better than store-bought or DIY methods. Professional teeth whitening removes intrinsic (internal) and extrinsic (surface) stains, which means whiter, even, and longer-lasting results. It's also customized to you, including your sensitivity and desired shade of white.
