WHY REPLACE MISSING TEETH?
HOW TCD IMPLANTS WORK
IMPLANTS VS. DENTURES

Restorative Dentistry Saves Smiles with Realistic Dental Implants

Dental implants are the best modern-day solution for missing teeth. Small, cylindrical titanium fixtures replace missing tooth roots and provide a stable base for replacement teeth. Replacement teeth feel, function and look like natural teeth. Backed by 50+ years of practical clinical research, dental implants are the most reliable and long-lasting tooth replacement option, boasting a 95% success rate.

There are two types of ADA-approved dental implants:

1. Endosteal implantsThese metal bases are surgically implanted directly into the jaw bone. Once the surrounding gum tissue has healed, a second surgery connects a post to the original implant. Finally, artificial teeth are attached to the post.

2. Subperiosteal implantsThese consist of a metal frame fitted into the jawbone just below the gum tissue. As the gums heal, the frame becomes fixed in the jawbone. Posts attached to the frame protrude through the gums. Artificial teeth are then mounted to the posts.

Single, Multiple & Full Mouth Teeth Implants

We want you to have your best smile no matter how many teeth we have to replace, so we offer single-tooth, multiple-teeth and full-mouth implants. 

 

  • Single-tooth implants place one dental implant to replace a single missing tooth for the feel and function of a natural tooth. 
  • Multiple-teeth implants are customizable based on the number of missing teeth and their location. They are often used in strategic positions to support individual crowns or a bridge.
  • Full-mouth implants are designed for patients missing all or most of their teeth in either the upper or lower jaw to restore full chewing function and appearance

 

Cost of Dental Implants

The cost of dental implants falls between $1,500 and $2,000 per implant. Additional costs may arise from the choice of materials, the complexity of the case or any unforeseen complications. 

 

Dental implants are available to residents of Wisconsin cities, including Fitchburg, Janesville, MiddletonSun Prairie and Waunakee.

Dental implants require regular oral hygiene practices, including brushing, flossing and routine dental check-ups, similar to natural teeth. With proper care, dental implants can last for many years, and in some cases, they can even last a lifetime.

Why is Replacing Missing Teeth Important? 

Replacing a loose or missing tooth is not just a cosmetic issue, it affects your overall oral health. Every tooth is surrounded by an alveolar bone in the jaw. If you lose a tooth and don’t have it replaced, the supporting bone will begin to degrade and melt away. The remaining teeth then begin to shift in order to fill the empty space. This causes issues with bite alignment and aesthetics. Other facial structures such as your jaw, joints, muscles and skin may be affected by a missing tooth.

Replace a missing tooth or multiple teeth as soon as possible. Have an implant take the lost tooth’s place. This may involve extracting a dying tooth to do it.

How Dental Implants Work 

Here is a step-by-step guide on how your TCD dentist will replace your tooth:

  • A titanium implant is installed directly to the jaw bone where the tooth is missing.
  • A retaining screw is installed in your implant to an abutment connector.
  • A crown is installed on top of the abutment connector, giving the appearance of a natural tooth.

If you have lost your alveolar bone, there is still hope for implants. Though the alveolar bone is gone for good once it decays, a skilled Madison cosmetic dentist can recreate the bone through grafting, producing the support needed for an implant. Once the implant is placed, it needs time to heal before a crown can be installed. It generally takes a few months to complete the implant process, but the results are worth it.

Dental Implants are the only dental treatment to:

  • Prevent soft tissue and bone loss
  • Provide natural tooth hygiene
  • Eliminate the need to reduce and compromise adjacent teeth

Read our FAQ to learn more about all the benefits of dental implant replacement.

Complications with Dental Implants

Certain pre-existing medical conditions can complicate the implant process, but it depends on overall patient health. Conditions like diabetes or hepatitis may make it harder to successfully install the new implant. For people with these conditions, alternative treatment options will be recommended.

Implants vs Dentures: Alternative Treatment Options for Missing Teeth

There are other options for replacing missing teeth: 

  1. Full and partial dentures are used to replace multiple teeth at a time and are removable. 
  2. Dental bridges generally replace damaged teeth, using the surrounding teeth to create a support system.
  3. All-on-4 implants can replace all of your teeth in a single dental appointment.

These traditional options are right for some patients, though every case is unique. A consultation will review possible problems with comfort, aesthetics, stability and longevity. Replacement teeth should positively impact your confidence, nutrition and overall wellness. TCD dentists will walk you through all your choices to ensure you are getting the best solution to restore your teeth, which will likely be dental implants.

Implants can replace a single tooth or multiple teeth, stabilize dentures or even replace dentures completely with Four Life Changing Implants. Please tour our Before & After Dentistry Gallery and see why dental implants should be your preferred choice for modern-day tooth replacement.
