Dental Implant: Restoring a Missing Tooth
This patient came to Antelope Creek Family Dentistry with a missing tooth that left a visible gap in their smile. Our team restored the space with a dental implant, giving this patient a natural-looking, fully functional tooth that blends right in with the rest of their smile.
A dental implant replaces both the root and the crown of a missing tooth. We place a small titanium post into your jawbone, where it fuses with the bone over time to create a strong, stable foundation. Once healed, we attach a custom-made crown that matches the shape, size, and color of your natural teeth.
Unlike a bridge or removable partial, a dental implant stands on its own and helps preserve your jawbone health for years to come.
If you have a missing tooth and want to explore your replacement options, call our 40th St. office at (402) 488-6716 or our Normal Blvd. office at (402) 486-1200 to schedule a consultation.
