Single Tooth Implants in South Loop, Chicago
Single Tooth and Multiple Teeth Implants
If you have one or more missing teeth, dental implants are a great option to restore both function and aesthetics. Dr. Andrew Bloom in Chicago offers solutions for both single and multiple teeth implants, helping our patients regain their smiles.
Single Tooth Implants
A single-tooth implant involves inserting a titanium post into the jawbone to replace one lost tooth. After the implant fuses with the bone, a custom-made crown is attached on top. This treatment offers numerous benefits, including:
Natural Appearance and Function: A single implant performs like a natural tooth, enabling you to eat, speak, and smile with ease and confidence.
Bone Preservation: By replacing the tooth root, implants help preserve jawbone density, preventing bone loss that can occur after tooth loss.
Durability: Single tooth implants are highly durable, often lasting a lifetime with proper care.
No Impact on Surrounding Teeth: Unlike traditional bridges, a single implant does not require altering adjacent teeth, maintaining their health and integrity.
Multiple Teeth Implants
For patients missing several teeth, multiple teeth implants can replace multiple teeth with fewer implants. This is often done by supporting a bridge or partial denture with strategically placed implants. Benefits include:
Time and Cost Efficiency
Replacing several teeth with fewer implants can save both time and money, as fewer surgeries are required.
Stability and Comfort
Implants provide a secure, permanent solution that will not slip or move like traditional dentures.
Restored Functionality
Whether replacing two or more teeth, implants restore your ability to chew and speak properly, making them a reliable solution for multiple missing tooth teeth.
