Nothing replaces teeth as well as dental implants in Putnam<\/span><\/h3>\r\nSince 1994. our Putnam neighbors have relied on Drs. McGinn when they need one or more teeth replaced. Given this significant experience, we think you can trust us when we say dental implants are the absolute best tooth replacement option available. <\/span>\r\n

What sets dental implants apart<\/span><\/h4>\r\nTo put it simply, nothing else replaces the missing tooth as well as its root like dental implants. Fixed bridges and non-implant supported dentures, two top alternatives to dental implants, only replace the visible portion of the tooth. But without the stimulation of the tooth\u2019s root, your jawbone will slowly degenerate\u2026 resulting in a changing mouth shape and even more tooth loss later on.<\/span>\r\n

How dental implants work<\/span><\/h4>\r\nThey\u2019re tiny posts made of titanium, and they\u2019re surgically implanted directly into the space left by each missing tooth. Think of them as little screws — the bottom part goes securely into your gum, and the new tooth is bonded on top. A process called osseointegration means the implant and jawbone fuse into one solid unit, keeping them super-secure in your mouth for a lifetime.<\/span>\r\n
