Dental Implants in South Richmond, VA

Dr. Naveen Chennupati works regularly with patients considering replacing missing teeth with Best Smiles South Richmond in the South Side Office area. Dental implants are titanium posts that are inserted into the jawbone and covered with porcelain to replace one, several, or all teeth.

DENTAL IMPLANTS: WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?

It is possible to replace missing teeth with dental implants because they are biocompatible with the body and look natural when they are restored with crowns, bridges, or dentures. Moreover, dental implants are versatile, allowing patients to replace all of their teeth with a complete mouth restoration, or just a single tooth. It is possible for these restorations to last for many years if patients take good care of them and provide full functionality.

CAN DENTAL IMPLANTS BE PAINFUL?

A few days after any procedure in the mouth, the bone wraps around the implant and firmly holds it in place. After implants are placed, you should not feel uncomfortable, and they should function and look just like natural teeth. The recovery period is short, and you can manage it with over-the-counter pain medications for a few days.

BENEFITS OF DENTAL IMPLANTS

Dental implants not only look and feel like natural teeth, but they also function exactly the same way as they do. Dental implants offer a number of benefits to patients seeking to restore their smiles. In addition, dental implants are designed to last many years and provide jaw bone support that prevents further tooth loss while keeping it healthy.
