Quick Considerations: Implants And Crowns

Figuring out every last detail in terms of which approach to dental implants will work for you: That’s something that we definitely suggest you do with our Rohnert Park, CA team in person! However, when you’ve been giving implants some consideration and you’d really just like to begin with answers to a pressing, common question, that’s something we can help you with right now! Join our Rohnert Park, CA team as we get started with some quick responses to frequent questions about considering implants and crowns.

Worth The Investment?

In our professional opinion, selecting dental implants for yourself is always worth the investment because implants do what no other tooth replacement can: They replace your roots, which means amazing stability, as well as root stimulation and jawbone tissue protection! With that said, you may be wondering whether selecting implants and crowns (over implants and another restoration, such as a partial, bridge, or denture) is worth the additional cost. This all depends on your needs, preferences, budget, etc. For a comprehensive look at your options and what offers you the greatest value, we invite you to come in for a consultation soon!

Better Than Implant-Supported Partials?

For one tooth? Replacing it with a dental implant and crown is really just like giving yourself your tooth back. However, if you are missing multiple teeth, then there’s not necessarily a “better” or “worse” scenario when you’re comparing implants that support crowns (to individually replace teeth) with partial dentures (to replace them all at once). If you want to get as close to replicating your original smile as possible, then implants and crowns will always get you there. However, if your primary focus is rebuilding your smile after tooth loss and getting back to optimal function, as well as beauty, then come in to discuss which option will work best for you, so we can get down to the details as they apply to your life.

Essential For Jaw Protection?

Again, this is going to be a personal one. Of course, when you choose to replace every one of your missing teeth with an individual dental implant per opening and a dental crown, you replace every single one of your missing roots, which means the best protection for your jaw against deterioration. However, let’s say you’re missing a full arch of teeth: Remember that you will receive up to eight implants to support your denture, which provides your jaw with much greater protection than a traditionally supported denture. As for whether this provides you with the tissue preservation you want, we encourage you to come in to discuss the details with us, so we may help you come to a conclusion!
