Single Tooth Dental Implants:

• Single tooth replacement
  A missing single tooth surrounded by healthy teeth has unique demands. The challenge is to replace your missing tooth, for both function and appearance, without harming your remaining teeth or gum tissue.
  
  
  
  　
• Traditional Bridges to replace Missing tooth Require damaging of  natural Teeth next to the missing area to hold the Bridge. However, Dental Implants allow us NOT TO DAMAGE the Adjacent Teeth by placing a single dental implant at the Missing Site.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  　
• Appearance
  Besides good function, the ideal replacement must look like a natural tooth, both to you and to others.
  The solutions possible with a Nobel Biocare implant supported crown take advantage of the best appearance possibilities available in dentistry.
  
  　
• Confidence
  The ideal replacement for your missing tooth must also feel like a natural tooth and be easy to keep clean. Knowing your tooth is stable while eating and talking means a lot. You'll also be glad your treatment didn't require grinding your remaining natural teeth.
  
  
  　
• Security
  The long term safety of a single-tooth replacement is well established. Your doctor will discuss with you a treatment plan for long term results.

The Treatment Steps:

Step1-The first step is to replace missing tooth roots by placing a titanium implant. The implant will remain covered underneath the gum for approximately three to six months. During that time, osseointegration takes place.

Step2-The second step of the procedure involves uncovering the implant and attaching an extension. This completes the foundation on which your new tooth will be placed.

　

Step3-The final step is the placement of your new tooth. With techniques that ensure optimal size, shape, color and fit, these replacement teeth will blend with your facial characteristics and remaining natural teeth.
