Dental implants at Premier Dentistry of Gettysburg represent a state-of-the-art solution for replacing missing teeth, offering a durable and aesthetically pleasing alternative to traditional bridges and dentures. Implants are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth.

A dental implant is a small titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone where teeth are missing. This post serves as a substitute for the tooth root, providing a stable base for a replacement tooth, such as a crown. The titanium fuses with the jawbone, ensuring that the implant is securely anchored.

One of the key benefits of dental implants is their ability to prevent bone loss, maintaining the natural shape of your face and jawline. They also allow for easier eating and speaking compared to traditional dentures and don’t require reducing other teeth, as a tooth-supported bridge does.

The process of getting implants involves several steps, including implant placement, healing time, and the attachment of the replacement tooth. Our skilled team at Premier Dentistry of Gettysburg provides comprehensive care and guidance throughout the entire implant process.

Dental implants offer a long-term solution for tooth loss, improving not only the aesthetics of your smile but also your overall oral health and quality of life.
