Southern Cross Dental of Colorado Springs, CO Offers Dental Implants for Lifelong Tooth Replacement

When it comes to missing teeth, it can be very bothersome or barely noticeable. Either way, it is important to have a plan in place to keep your teeth present throughout your life. Drs. Navid Rahimpour, DDS and Faranak Rahimpour, DDS of Southern Cross Dental in Colorado Springs, CO offers their patients dental implants. Dental implants are tooth replacements that have the ability to last a lifetime.

Our teeth are important for eating, speaking, jaw and facial structure, and smiling among other things. When a tooth is lost, these important parts of our life can become difficult. Jaw and facial structure may also be compromised. It is important to replace missing teeth as soon as possible for these reasons. While there are options like dentures and bridges, they will eventually need to be replaced. Dental implants are able to last a lifetime once they are placed.

A dental implant consists of a titanium implant post, an abutment, and the replacement tooth; the crown. The crown is custom-created so that it looks and feels just like one of your natural teeth. You will be proud to show off your smile.

The dental implant is inserted into the bone socket with an incision. This will take several months to heal, so your dentist will place a temporary crown in place. When the healing is complete, an abutment will be placed on the implant to serve as the base for the permanent crown. An impression is taken of the implant and the surrounding area so a dental laboratory can create the custom crown. The crown will be cemented into place and your new tooth replacement is complete.

If you are missing one or more teeth and want a strong, stable replacement as close to a real tooth as you can get, a dental implant is your option. To schedule an appointment with Drs. Navid Rahimpour, DDS and Faranak Rahimpour, DDS of Colorado Springs, CO, call Southern Cross Dental at (719) 471-1717 or visit their website,www.southerncrossfamilydentistry.com.
