Have you been thinking that getting dental implants will be the best way to replace your missing teeth? Today, many people are coming to the same conclusion. There are several different teeth replacement options available today, however, dental implants continue to grow in popularity. This is because dental implants look, feel, and function just like permanent teeth. Once you get a dental implant, you will soon forget that it is not simply one of your natural teeth. When you decide to get Naperville dental implants, you will want to be sure that you receive treatment from one of the most respected implant dentists around. We hope you will contact us at our practice, Derrick Williamson DDS, MS, PC.
At our dental practice, our highly regarded implant doctor is Dr. Derrick Williamson. If you have any questions about getting Naperville dental implants, you will want to meet with Dr. Williamson to see if dental implants will work for you. Not all patients will immediately qualify for getting dental implants. Some patients will need to have a bone graft in order to make their jawbones thick enough and healthy enough to permanently hold the dental implant. If you need a bone graft to accomplish this, Dr. Williamson will be able to provide you with this treatment so that dental implants can become a reality for you.
Dental implants are long-term teeth replacements that are surgically placed in the jawbone. The dental implant root is made of titanium, and will surgically fuse with your jawbone. If dental implant teeth are flossed and brushed on a regular basis, and you receive regular dental cleanings, your Naperville dental implants may well last a lifetime. Studies have shown that after more than 15 years, when dental implants were first used, the vast majority of dental implants are still at peak functioning performance. Once the dental implant has fully fused to your jawbone, a porcelain crown will be permanently attached to the implant root by your restorative dentist. At this point, the dental implant is complete and you will be able to enjoy all of the benefits it has to offer. You will be able to eat anything you want without fear that the dental implant will slip or cause you any pain. If you would like to learn if you are a good candidate for getting one or several dental implants, contact us today.
