Implant Dentistry
We are one of the very few dental offices in the area that has invested in an on site 3D imaging machine. Three dimensional imaging technology significantly aids in the correct placement of your dental implant. Therefore, we offer everything you need to have your implant placed and cosmetically restored in our office. Dr. Macdonald is participating in the 2009 Dental Implant Continuum offered by Triangle Dental Institute where he is receiving over 200 additional hours of implant placement training. Please read on to learn more about dental implants or call us if you are ready to schedule an appointment to find out if dental implants are an option for you!
Dental Implants are a substitute or, replacement tooth roots. They provide the same function as natural tooth roots, including stimulating the bone, thereby preserving it and preventing the bone loss that would normally occur with tooth loss. The jawbone actually forms a bond with dental implants, creating a stable foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel and function like natural teeth.
The impact of deteriorating bone from complete tooth loss includes collapsed facial profiles, lost lip support, increased wrinkles around the mouth and appearance of pointed nose and chin that are too close together.
Tooth replacement with dental implants prevents further deterioration of facial structures and the related health problems that would normally occur with complete tooth loss.
A Dental Implant is a substitute, or replacement tooth root, which provides a stable foundation for a replacement crown. The bone forms a biological bond with the new root (implant) giving your new crown the same stable foundation as a natural tooth.
Our State of the Art Technology makes it possible to provide replacement teeth that look, feel and function like natural teeth.
Dental Implants have enhanced the quality of life for hundreds of thousands of people, of all age groups throughout the world.
