Missing teeth can affect your chewing, speech, bite, and quality of life. Tooth gaps can also diminish your self-confidence when you smile. At Baton Rouge Periodontics & Implants, the skilled periodontists have many years of experience replacing missing teeth using personalized treatment plans and cutting-edge technology.
Replacing missing permanent teeth offers numerous benefits, including:
Tooth replacement can reduce wear-and-tear on your remaining natural teeth and the risk of headaches and jaw discomfort. It also lessens the chance of jawbone loss.
Your Baton Rouge Periodontics & Implants provider lets you know which teeth replacement options are best after discussing your symptoms, oral health history, and desired outcome. They review the results of your dental X-rays and ask about your goals before customizing your treatment plan.
You should be in good overall health and a non-smoker before undergoing tooth replacement procedures. You may first need a tooth removal or jawbone grafting if your jaw isn’t strong enough to support your new artificial teeth.
Some of the teeth replacement options available at Baton Rouge Periodontics & Implants include:
Dental implants are artificial metal posts that your periodontist places in your jawbone to anchor crowns, bridges, or dentures and replace missing permanent teeth.
Baton Rouge Periodontics & Implants uses the latest advancements in dental implant technology to provide outstanding results.
At Baton Rouge Periodontics & Implants, endosteal implants are the primary implants offered, which are made of titanium and resemble small screws. After your provider places them into your jawbone, endosteal implants serve as a foundation for new artificial teeth.
