Dental Implants
Dental implants provide the foundation for replacement teeth that meet and exceed the strength and appearance of natural teeth. Dental Implantology patients of Dr. Shuler, Dr. Knibbe, and Dr. Lucas in Northern KY oral surgery offices in Crestview Hills KY and Florence KY who were missing teeth gain the ability to smile and laugh with confidence and to once again enjoy their favorite foods. The implants are tiny titanium posts which bond with the jaw to act like tooth roots, providing a stable foundation for artificial teeth. Implant replacement helps prevent the deterioration of facial structure that occurs when teeth are missing. For most patients, the entire procedure usually takes six to eight months with little disruption to their daily lives. They result is a beautiful, healthy smile!
Once you learn about dental implants, you finally realize there is a way to improve you life. When you lose several teeth – whether it’s a new situation or something you have lived with for years – chances are you have never become fully accustomed to losing such a vital part of yourself.
