Dental Implants
A Solution That Works

If you are missing one or more teeth, you share a problem with over 100-million Americans. Thanks to advancements in dental technology, however, you can also share in a common solution – dental implants.

Dental implants are man-made replacements for natural teeth that bring a new way of life to thousands of people who have suffered the indignity, both physical and emotional, caused by missing teeth or poorly fitting full or partial dentures.

Implant dentistry is safe, beneficial, and highly successful. People who have experienced implant dentistry have called it "miraculous." These are people just like you: teenagers who have lost teeth in sports injuries or accidents, adults missing one or even all of their teeth, and those who are simply tired of wearing dentures.

Because dental implants can restore the natural look, feel, and function of natural teeth, you look better and feel better about your appearance, and your increased ability to chew, enjoy, and digest your food.

A Beneficial Solution
What is a beautiful smile worth? How do you measure the joy of rediscovering the taste of a tart, juicy apple, speaking distinctly, being free of pain, or brushing your teeth in your mouth again? Only you can decide.

The many benefits available from implant dentistry are the result of over two decades of success with thousands of patients. They give you teeth with a secure foundation, enabling you once again to chew the foods you love and improve your nutrition. Implants also help preserve the bone of the jaw. Other physical considerations are improved appearance and speech, and elimination of discomfort caused by missing teeth or poorly fitting dentures.

Dental implants restore a lot more than just teeth. They produce significant psychological and emotional benefits as well, bolstering self-esteem and confidence while promoting a healthier outlook on life.

Dr. Arthur J. Mund has extensive experience in all phases of implant dentistry and will work with you to decide what types of implants are right for you.

A Natural Solution
Dental implants are so effective because they are made from material that biologically bonds with living bone. There is no rejection by the body, as with tissue transplants such as heart, lung, or kidney.

The implant is placed by a surgical incision either into or over the bone. This procedure can be performed under local anesthesia in our dental office. New bone tissue immediately begins its bonding process, growing securely around the implant. During the process, temporary teeth can be provided so that you never have to appear without teeth. Permanent replacement teeth are then created and secured to the implant posts.

There are two basic types of implants: those placed directly into bone and those that rest on top of bone. The amount and location of available bone determines the type used. There are almost as many treatment options as there are individuals with dental problems. Treatment planning will include various choices and treatment options suited to meet your personal needs and desires.

Dental implants are the closest thing to natural teeth, and with proper care, they will last a lifetime. To discuss your dental implant options with our dentists, please contact our Fort Worth office today.
