Dental Implants

Reports show that 69% of adults have lost at least one tooth. The most common causes are tooth decay and gum disease, but other factors contribute to tooth loss, as well. At Stephanie K Dentistry, we think that even one missing tooth is too many! We offer dental implant restorations to beautifully renew oral comfort, function, and appearance.

A dental implant is a man-made tooth root that secures a custom crown or other prosthetic. The "root" is made of biocompatible titanium, so it's safe for your smile. Dental implants can replace individual teeth or hold a denture, partial, or bridge in place.

If you have good oral health and sufficient jawbone mass, an oral surgeon will place the tiny titanium posts in your jaw. The number and placement of the implants depends on the type of prosthetic teeth to be attached. Dr. Kethcart will oversee each step in the dental implant process and mount your replacement teeth after your jawbone fuses with the posts.

Dental implants are a proven restorative solution with a 95 to 98% success rate. They deliver beautiful, comfortable, and functional smiles and renew the ability to speak clearly, laugh with confidence, and enjoy the foods that you love. With proper care, your dental implants may last a lifetime.
