Dental Implant Possibilities
Beauty Begins with a Whole Smile
Is your smile missing something? Whether an accident, injury, or dental disease has caused your missing tooth, it can present more of a problem than just being embarrassed to smile. Replacing a missing tooth will restore not only beauty to your smile, but functionality to your teeth. Dental implants have proven to restore both while matching not only the original beauty of your missing tooth, but the strength as well. Missing teeth can create multiple difficulties, including allowing teeth to shift and become misaligned, encouraging the onset of gum disease, contributing to jawbone atrophy and possibly the loss of additional teeth. At Soddy Daisy Smiles, we offer dental implants are a cosmetic dentistry solution to single and multiple tooth losses that can truly revitalize your smile and improve your overall quality of life.
Why Should I Choose Dental Implants?
Dental implants are a permanent tooth replacement option that mimics nature. Using a system that incorporates a small titanium post and a perfect replica of your missing tooth, a dental implant is the ultimate tooth restoration therapy. The titanium post acts as a tooth root and is implanted into the jaw bone, just beneath the gum. A porcelain, custom-colored and handcrafted replacement tooth is created and once the implant site is healed, Dr. Robert Shearer sets and bonds the replacement over the post to complete the dental implant restoration. Your dental implant will look so natural; no one will notice anything except your gorgeous smile.
The Benefits of Dental Implants
Because an implant mimics a natural tooth from the root up, the original stability and strength of your mouth and jaw are returned, benefiting you in numerous ways.
- Halts the shifting of adjacent teeth
- Restores full functionality – chew, eat and speak normally and naturally
- Restores facial structure – a return to a more youthful appearance
- Permanent restoration – lasting a lifetime – with a completely natural appearance
Dr. Robert Shearer's extensive training with the highly regarded Medical College of Georgia ensures that your dental implant procedure gives you the quality of care and the results you deserve.
Implant Retained Dentures
Stability and Beauty for Your Smile
As a denture wearer, are you confident that your dentures are secure? Do you have the confidence to smile and laugh or eat your favorite foods? If you can’t say “yes” to these questions, then, like many partial and full denture wearers, you may be assuming that a loose fit and discomfort are simply part of being a denture wearer. However, the fact is, having a comfortable and secure denture is possible with implant retained dentures.
Regain Confidence with Implant Retained Dentures
Implant retained dentures are a tremendous option for denture wearers who desire increased functionality and who wish to reclaim their self-confidence. Implant retained dentures require minor surgery to implant small titanium posts in your jawbone. These small posts act as anchors for your new, custom-made implant retained dentures which are simply snapped onto the posts. Your implant retained denture is now held securely in place and the discomfort and distress of slippage is completely eliminated.
Mini Dental Implants
If your consultation determined that you don’t have sufficient bone density for traditional dental implants, you can still achieve a beautiful smile through mini dental implants. Less invasive and requiring no sutures, mini dental implants offer the same denture stability with less healing time.
It's important to choose the right dentist for your implant dentistry needs. Dr. Robert Shearer offers patients the benefit of the Maxi Implant training at the Medical College of Georgia, years of experience, and gentle, compassionate care. Best of all, there's no outside referral for your surgery, which means you can relax knowing your trusted dentist is by your side.
