Missing teeth can affect more than just the way your smile looks—they can change how you speak, eat, and feel about yourself. Fortunately, today’s dental technology offers advanced options to replace lost teeth in ways that are durable, natural-looking, and fully functional. At Stamford Dental Spa, one of our most recommended solutions is dental implants—and for good reason.
Dental implants are considered the gold standard for tooth replacement. They are small titanium posts that are surgically placed in your jawbone, where they act as artificial tooth roots. After healing and bonding with the bone—a process known as osseointegration—the implants support custom-made crowns, bridges, or even dentures.
What makes implants different is that they don’t just sit on top of the gums like dentures. They actually integrate with your bone, helping to prevent the bone loss that often follows tooth loss. This not only maintains the shape of your face but also provides strength and stability for chewing and speaking.
The implant process begins with a consultation and thorough exam, including digital X-rays and scans. We’ll evaluate your bone health and overall oral condition to determine if you’re a good candidate. If you’re eligible, we’ll develop a treatment plan tailored to your timeline, needs, and preferences.
Once the implant is placed, a healing period allows the post to fuse with the bone. After that, a custom crown or prosthetic is attached, restoring the function and appearance of your natural tooth. The result is a strong, permanent solution that looks and feels just like the real thing.
Implants require the same care as natural teeth: regular brushing, flossing, and routine dental checkups. With proper care, implants can last for decades, making them a smart long-term investment in your oral health.
At Stamford Dental Spa, we combine advanced technology with expert care to ensure your implant experience is as smooth and comfortable as possible.
