Best dental implant dentistry in the Cary, NC area
At Cary and Cornelius Holistic Dental Centers, Dr. Carl McMillan and his team understand the problems that can arise when patients are missing one or more teeth. Not only can missing teeth negatively affect the appearance of the smile, but it can also affect function, bone structure, and alignment of the existing teeth. This is why his practice offers holistic ways of repairing the smile. While dentures and dental bridges are appropriate restorations, many patients prefer the use of dental implants.
A dental implant is one of the best ways for Cary area patients to repair their smiles if they are seeking a permanent option. Dental implants used at our practice are made of zirconium, a porcelain material, instead of titanium used in traditional dental practices. This is because zirconium is metal free, more aesthetic, and integrates better into the bone. Zirconium is safe and appropriate for dental implant usage.
Implant dentistry is a fast-growing aspect of restorative care. This particular method of rejuvenating the smile is highly desirable because of its permanence. When patients have dental implants placed, they care for them as they do their natural teeth. With proper maintenance, they can enjoy their dental implants for the rest of their lives, making it a wonderful investment in the beauty, function, and health of their smiles.
An appropriate candidate for the placement of dental implants is an individual who has recently had teeth extracted or lost as this may ensure enough bone structure for successful placement. Bone is needed for the implant to be placed, and if there is not enough, patients may need to seek an alternative solution or discuss the possibility of bone grafting to build up the jawbone and make it better suited for the placement of an implant.
Dr. Carl McMillan and the Cary and Cornelius Holistic Dental Center welcome you to contact them to learn about the ways in which dental implants can be used to repair the smile, as well as determine if any other restorative techniques are appropriate. Dental implants, however, are incredibly versatile and may be more desirable for those who are ready to put more money into their smile for long-term benefits.
