Instead of providing you with an appliance that sits on top of your teeth or gums, your dentist can custom craft an implant that will fit in your empty tooth socket and root down to your jawbone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Patients love the seamless look and low-profile fit of these replacements, but they\u2019re not exactly cheap. Each individual dental implant can cost a pretty penny, which might have you wondering how many you\u2019ll need. Only your dentist can tell you \u2013 though this overview of your options can help give you an idea of what to expect!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Many Implants Will I Need?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As already hinted at, the number of implants you\u2019ll need to fill out your smile depends on your unique oral situation. That means only your dentist will be able to give you this assessment. However, that doesn\u2019t mean you should be worried! Dental implants are extremely versatile. As you\u2019ll see, there\u2019s a way to efficiently restore almost any dental gaps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Simple and Easy Single Tooth Replacements<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you only need to replace one tooth, then it\u2019s fairly safe to say you\u2019ll only need one dental implant! A dental implant isn\u2019t bulky like dentures or dental bridges. They pretty much look and fit like natural teeth, so filling a singular gap with an implant is easy enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Combination Restorations for Multiple Teeth<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, if you\u2019re missing multiple teeth, the best way to restore your smile is probably to combine dental implants with crowns or bridges. Of course, you could opt for the traditional version of both of these restorations \u2013 but securing them with dental implants helps bridges and crowns last longer, stay in place, and give you more chewing power. Adding dental implants to the mix is definitely an advantage!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Budget-Friendly Way to Reconstruct Your Smile<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>What if you\u2019re missing an entire arch of teeth? Then you probably don\u2019t want to pay for several sets of dental implant bridges! Instead, your dentist will likely recommend implant dentures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similar to the combined restorations, an implant denture takes advantage of the stability of implants and the coverage of a larger appliance. You\u2019ll receive a denture, but it will be connected to about eight strategically placed implant posts. Slippage while eating or chewing won\u2019t be a problem for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Remember to Schedule a Consultation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if you have a pretty good idea of which dental implant setup will best suit your needs, it\u2019s still crucial to talk to your dentist about your treatment. Dental implants require a certain amount of jawbone mass and gum structure to work effectively, so at the very least, you\u2019ll want your dentist to check on your oral health. Let the pro guide your treatment plan, and you\u2019ll be able to enjoy your new teeth for decades!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At Marvel Dental, we have several excellent dentists on staff who would be happy to help you restore your smile!
