Dental Implants
Dental Implants for Danville, IL
If you've had teeth removed, dental implants are one of your best options for replacement. Consisting of a screw and an artificial tooth, or crown, dental implants
attach to the jawbone and look and feel much like natural teeth.

What Can Dental Implants Do for You?
You have many options for replacing missing teeth, including dentures, bridges, and implants. Dental implants offer several advantages over these other options. These are a few of those benefits:
They can last a lifetime. With proper care, you might never need to replace your dental implants.
They are comfortable. Unlike removable dentures, which may slip and slide on your gums, dental implants are secure and allow you to speak and eat normally.
They are easy to care for. Because you don't have to remove them and store them overnight, dental implants are as easy to maintain as your own teeth. Just brush and floss them like you do your natural teeth.
They help you retain bone density. Only a dental implant stimulates your jawbone enough to promote bone density. Your jawbone will weaken overtime without the stimulation of natural teeth or implants.
Dental implants are an excellent option for many people and boast an impressive 98 percent success rate.
However, not everyone is an ideal candidate for this treatment. If you have periodontal disease or diabetes, you will need to get your symptoms under control before you can get this procedure. When you come into our dental office in Danville, IL, we'll evaluate if your gums and jawbone are healthy enough for dental implants or if another replacement option would be better for you.
