Implants

Implants by Powell Dentists Dr. Edwin Guion and Dr. Todd Klein mean that you no longer have to suffer from the inconvenience and embarrassment of missing teeth. Dental implants are tooth replacements that both feel and look natural. Implants can restore the beauty and health of your smile for a lifetime!

Why Implants?

Implants can be used to replace one or more teeth. They are also commonly used to anchor a bridge or dentures, keeping these securely in place and improving their comfort and ability to function. This procedure also helps to preserve bone structure. When a tooth is lost and not replaced, the bone can recede. When an implant is added in its place, the bone directly involved will continue to support your tooth structure.

The Two-Step Process

Implants involve a surgical procedure, where a small titanium post is placed as an artificial tooth root in the space left by a missing tooth. This is then capped with a porcelain crown to restore function and aesthetics.

We have partnered with excellent oral surgeons within our own dental complex, who will work under the guidance of Dr. Guion's specifications in the placement of the artificial root. Once the titanium implant is placed, you will return back to our office to finish your restorative work. We allow time for the artificial root to fuse with your bone structure in a process called osseogensis. Once this bonding has occurred we will place the porcelain cap.

This cosmetic crown is made of durable and beautiful porcelain. It will be created to perfectly match the color, texture, and shape of your natural teeth and will blend in perfectly with your smile while restoring the full function of your tooth. It can take anywhere from a few weeks to a number of months to complete this entire process.

An implant is the first choice for restoring a missing tooth because of it's strength and beauty. Call our office for a complimentary consultation and learn what this dental option can do to restore your beautiful, natural smile!
