High River Implant Dentistry

Are you tired of hiding your smile? Worried about your appearance because of missing teeth? If you are looking for a safe, effective and permanent solution for one or more missing teeth, implant dentistry might be for you. Highwood Dental is pleased to offer implant dentistry to help you achieve optimal health and the beautiful smile you have always wanted.

Implant dentistry refers to any dental service that involves a dental implant. Implant surgery is the process of surgically placing titanium dental implants into the jawbone where missing teeth once were, to serve as artificial tooth roots. These implants are inserted as an anchor or foundation to hold replacement artificial teeth. The process typically involves a minor surgical procedure followed by a healing period, during which the implants integrate with the bone to create a strong foundation on which to place an artificial tooth replacement. Dental implants look and perform just like a natural tooth, and if properly cared for, can last for many years.

For successful treatment, dental implants are only recommended for healthy patients who have healthy gum tissue and gums that are free of periodontal disease. There must also be enough bone levels in the jaw to support the dental implant. Whatever the reason for your missing teeth, be it trauma, an extraction or advanced gum disease, Highwood Dental is here to provide you with safe and effective tooth replacement options.
