For many patients, traditional restorations like removable dentures or fixed bridges are only semi-permanent solutions to missing or extracted teeth.
Whether you are missing one tooth or several teeth, you can improve and enhance your smile with dental implants. This is the most natural tooth replacement option available and can be safely performed by our dentists.
We use the latest in dental technology to provide high-quality dental implants that will make your smile look better than ever.
When you are ready to upgrade your smile, turn to the dental professionals of Bartram Dental!
What is a Dental Implant?
Dental implants consist of three unique components: the titanium post which is surgically placed into the jaw, a ceramic abutment that is connected to the implant post, and the prosthetic restoration which is connected to the abutment. While this treatment is highly versatile, the basic structure of dental implants and implant-supported restorations remains the same.
Benefits of Dental Implants
After implant surgery, the implant post fuses with the jaw bone, becoming integrated as a substitute for the natural tooth root. Not only does this create a firm foundation for the remaining parts of the dental implant, but it also prevents further bone degeneration and additional tooth loss.
Receiving Dental Implants
Using cone beam digital imaging, Dr. Lewis determines the best placement for your implant restorations. Following implant placement and recovery, patients return to Bartram Dental Center to receive their customized abutments and restorations. For patients requiring single unit or bridge restorations, Dr. Lewis is able to manufacture these prosthetics in our office with innovative CEREC technology.
