Dental implants in San Antonio offer you the look, feel, and function of a natural tooth.

The Gold Standard in Tooth Replacement!

Dental Implants

Tooth loss is a prevalent problem in America, with more than half of the adult population having lost at least one tooth by age 35. Tooth loss can be due to trauma or problems like gum disease, which impacts more than 50 percent of adults in some form.

Losing a tooth impacts your confidence, nutrition, health, and well-being. Worse yet, it can often result in more tooth loss because you also lose bone support.

The good news is that these days, dentistry offers excellent solutions for replacing missing teeth with dental implants. Dentists consider implants the gold standard in tooth replacement because they replace both your tooth and root, which is the closest thing to getting your natural tooth back.

How Do Dental Implants Work?

If you’re getting a tooth implant in San Antonio, Dr. Pascal will work closely with a trusted oral surgeon to surgically place it into your jawbone. Dental implants are made of biocompatible titanium, which will naturally fuse and integrate with your bone over time, taking the place of your root. This is important because it keeps your jawbone healthy and stimulated. The healing and integration process can take anywhere from three to six months.

Once your dental implant is completely healed and fused with your bone, it’s ready to support your new tooth or porcelain crown. Dr. Pascal designs your crown to blend with your surrounding teeth, complementing your smile.

What Are the Advantages of Dental Implants?

Tooth implants offer patients several advantages that bridges and dentures cannot.

Protection for the health of your jawbone
The look, function, and feeling of a natural tooth
Excellent longevity with the potential to last a lifetime
The ability to replace multiple teeth
Easy care with brushing and flossing as you were used to
A reliable treatment with a 95 percent success rate

If you’re missing multiple teeth, you can still enjoy the benefits of dental implants. We can use them to support dental prosthetics like a bridge or denture that restore multiple teeth or even an entire arch of missing teeth.

Who Is a Candidate for Getting Dental Implants in San Antonio?

If you’d like to learn more about dental implants for your smile, the first step is to schedule an evaluation with Dr. Pascal. He’ll use x-rays and a thorough exam to determine if implants are right for you since they need enough healthy bone present to support them.
