Dental Implants in Waldorf

A permanent solution for missing teeth.

What Is a Dental Implant?

It's the next best thing to your natural tooth.

Are you missing one or more teeth? Dental implants may be your best solution to replace your missing teeth permanently.

A dental implant replaces your entire tooth from root to crown. It restores your smile’s function, allowing you to eat and speak normally. It also restores your smile’s beauty, seamlessly blending in with your natural teeth.

A dental implant restoration consists of:

  • A small titanium post, which is placed in your jawbone and acts as the tooth root.
  • An abutment, which attaches to the post and secures your crown restoration.
  • A crown, the visible part of your new tooth, which is custom designed by Dr. Silberman to blend with your smile.

Aside from permanently replacing your missing tooth, a dental implant also has many other benefits.

The Benefits of Dental Implants

Replacing your missing tooth with a dental implant goes beyond your physical appearance. Here are some of the many benefits you can expect with dental implants:

There’s a common misconception that root canal procedures are painful. But the truth is, the infection inside your tooth is what causes severe tooth pain, which can result in an emergency root canal (and more money) if left untreated.

That’s why our restorative dentists offer complete root canal treatment in one visit. In fact, many patients state they felt immediate pain relief following the appointment.

  • Look and feel natural: Dr. Silberman and his dental implant team will custom design your crown restoration to look and feel identical to a natural tooth. Trust us; no one will notice you have a dental implant.
  • Prevent bone loss: When you lose a tooth, the surrounding bone slowly begins to deteriorate. An implant post stops and prevents further bone loss … Click to go to our blog … by fusing with the bone and acting as a tooth root.
  • Chew, eat, and speak normally: Dental implants completely restore the function of your smile. You will be able to do all of life’s necessities without pain or embarrassment: eating, chewing, speaking, laughing, and kissing.
  • Secure dentures and bridges: Dental implants can also be used to secure your denture or bridge. With the support of a dental implant, you won’t have to worry about slipping or sliding dentures or slurring your words.
  • A conservative solution: Unlike other restorative options, dental implants only require modifications to your missing tooth area.
  • Long-lasting: Your dental implant in Waldorf, MD will be made of durable material that is not subject to decay. With proper oral hygiene, you can expect your dental restoration to last for decades.
