At Gentle Care Dentistry, Dr. Brianne Luu and her team educate patients on the solutions available to them when considering tooth replacement. One of the most popular options for replacing missing teeth is the dental implant. Dental implants are widely available to those who qualify and make a wonderful long-term solution. Azusa, CA area, patients are encouraged to book a consultation with our team at Gentle Care Dentistry to discuss their options and to determine candidacy.

How does a dental implant work?

The tooth implant is best described as a titanium rod placed into the patient’s bone. Then, the implant is restored over the top abutment with a dental crown, dental bridge, or denture. The implant is used to replace one or more teeth. The primary benefit of the dental implant is its longevity. The dental implant can last a lifetime with proper care and provides the best function as it is integrated into the bone of the jaw for stability and strength. No other restoration is as strong, durable, and long-lasting as the dental implant to replace missing teeth.

What are the benefits of dental implants?

To sum up the advantages, we find that patients choose dental implants because they are:

• Permanent
• Biocompatible
• Natural-looking
• Strong and durable
• Versatile
• A smart investment

What alternatives are available?

Not everyone is appropriate for the dental implant. When this happens, patients must ask Dr. Brianne Luu about alternatives that may be available to them instead. While dental implants are one of the best solutions, they are not the only one! We also offer dental bridges for replacing one or more teeth in the smile, or partial and full dentures for replacement of one, several, or all teeth within the dental arch. During a consultation appointment, our team can make recommendations to patients regarding their best solution.
