From Missing Tooth To Amazing Implant





It is a misconception that periodontists only take a look at the health of your gums and complete periodontal procedures. There is so much more that Dr. Rice and her team can do for your smile. If you are impacted by a missing tooth that you think cannot be fixed, take a look at your dental options.

Once one tooth is missing, it is more likely that other teeth will begin to shift into the position of the missing tooth causing jaw trouble and pain. You may also find that your other teeth begin to fall out as well. Gingivitis and periodontal disease impact the gums and can cause your teeth to become loose as the gum pocket is no longer healthy and begins to pull away from the tooth.

A dental implant can help to replace a missing tooth and you get all the benefits of your natural tooth. A dental implant looks and feels like a natural tooth. Prior to getting an implant it is important to discuss with Dr. Rice and her team not only your goals for your smile, but also to have a full evaluation on the health of your smile. Replacing one tooth can help restore your confidence, but if you are impacted with periodontal disease or gingivitis you will want to get the health of your entire smile back on track.
