Dental Implants

Replacing your missing teeth has a number of advantages. Not only can you improve your appearance and self-confidence, but you will protect the health of your mouth, maintain jaw structure and your remaining teeth. If you would like to find out if you are a candidate for dental implants in Roy, Utah, and would like to see our dentists, Dr. Rachel Findlay, Dr. Spencer Pugmire, and Dr. Brian Clark, for a consultation, call Midland Dental at 801-317-4407.

Dental implants are lasting, stable tooth replacements that can be used to replace one missing tooth, several missing teeth or complete arches of teeth. The dental implant post, which is a screw made of titanium, is surgically placed in the jawbone at the site of the missing tooth. It replaces the missing tooth root and ensures that your dental restoration is stable. A period of healing is then often required to allow the bone to begin to bond with the biocompatible post.

Following this healing period, our dentists will place the dental implant restoration, or replacement tooth, which fits on top of the implant post. Depending on which teeth are missing and your personal dental needs, your implant restoration might be a dental crown, dental bridge, or a complete or partial denture. Each dental implant restoration is custom-made to fit your smile comfortably and esthetically.

Replacing a missing tooth can restore your smile to optimal health, function and appearance. A dental implant is a great option for restoring your smile because the implant is designed to look, function and feel just like your natural teeth, and with proper care, it can last a lifetime.
