Single Tooth Implants in Cameron Park, CA

Missing a tooth and wondering about the best way to restore your smile? At Cameron Park Family Dentistry, Dr. Nav and our expert team offer single tooth implants in Cameron Park, providing a permanent, natural-looking solution that can give you back your confident smile.

What Are Single Tooth Implants?

A single tooth implant is a modern dental restoration that replaces both the visible crown and the root of a missing tooth. Our Cameron Park dentist carefully places a small titanium post into your jawbone to act as an artificial tooth root, then attaches a custom-crafted crown that matches your natural teeth perfectly. This comprehensive approach provides a permanent solution that looks, feels, and functions just like your natural tooth.

Benefits of Single Tooth Dental Implants

• Natural Appearance and Function: Your implant is custom-designed to match your surrounding teeth in color, shape, and size. You’ll be able to eat, speak, and smile with complete confidence, knowing your restoration looks completely natural.
• Preserves Bone Health: Unlike other tooth replacement options, dental implants stimulate your jawbone just like natural tooth roots. This stimulation prevents the bone loss that typically occurs when teeth are missing, helping maintain your facial structure.
• Protects Adjacent Teeth: Traditional bridges require grinding down neighboring teeth for support. Single tooth implants stand independently, preserving your healthy natural teeth while providing stable support for your replacement tooth.
• Long-lasting Solution: With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last a lifetime. They resist decay and provide the same stability and strength as your natural teeth, making them a worthwhile investment in your smile.

Dental Implant Procedure: What to Expect

Your journey to a restored smile at Cameron Park Family Dentistry involves several carefully planned steps:

1. Initial Consultation: Our expert dentist, Dr. Nav, performs a comprehensive examination using advanced imaging technology to assess your oral health and bone structure. Together, we’ll discuss your goals and create a personalized treatment plan.
2. Implant Placement: Our Cameron Park dentist precisely positions the titanium implant into your jawbone using advanced surgical guides. The procedure is comfortable and typically completed under local anesthesia.
3. Healing Period: The implant needs time to integrate with your jawbone, usually taking 3-4 months. During this time, you may wear a temporary crown to maintain your appearance.
4. Crown Placement: Once healing is complete, we attach your custom-designed permanent crown to the implant. We ensure perfect fit and appearance, making any necessary adjustments for your comfort.
