Answer Key
- True. On average, a traditional dental bridge lasts between 10 and 15 years before requiring adjustment or replacement. However, a implant can often last for decades, if not a lifetime, with proper care and attention. We can discuss the best means of preserving your new tooth, and your remaining natural teeth as well.
- True. The dental implant will be topped with a lifelike restoration. Custom-made from porcelain, the restoration will be designed to blend with your smile. No one will be able to tell you have an implant. Patients can enjoy a full and beautiful smile once again.
- True. If you have advanced tooth loss, then we can help! With multiple dental implants, we can secure a dental bridge, a partial, or a full set of dentures. The implant-retained prosthetics will last much longer than their removable counterparts.
