Single missing tooth solution
| |||||||||
|

"Dr. Beaver, what can be done for a single missing tooth?" |
| In the case of a single missing tooth, a
dental implant can be placed in the jawbone area of the missing tooth. The implant will serve as a replacement for a tooth root and an individual crown. The total apparatus is referred to as a single-tooth implant crown. Once in place, the implant crown will look, feel, and function like a natural tooth. They are cleaned and flossed just like natural teeth, and best of all, they do not require any special tools to clean around them like bridges. Although dental implants will not decay, they require impeccable oral hygiene. Call us at (904) 396-GRIN for more information about dental implants and if they are right for you. |

*Minimal sedation, also known as anxiolysis, is the use of oral and inhalation medications to relieve anxiety before and
during dental procedures that minimally reduce consciousness in an effort to reduce fear and anxiety, while still maintaining
normal breathing and the ability to respond appropriately to physical and verbal stimulation.
