Single Tooth in Kernersville

Why Choose a Single-Tooth Dental Implant?

If you need to replace a missing tooth, a single-tooth dental implant provides a durable and natural-looking solution that restores both function and appearance. This option replicates the entire tooth structure, including the root and crown. Our dentist carefully places a titanium post into your jawbone to serve as an artificial root. After healing, a custom crown is attached to the implant, seamlessly matching your surrounding teeth and completing your smile.

Single-tooth implants offer several advantages over traditional tooth replacements. Unlike dental bridges, implants do not require altering or reshaping adjacent healthy teeth, preserving your natural dental structure. Additionally, the implant stimulates the jawbone, helping to prevent bone loss and maintain your facial integrity. With proper care, implants provide long-lasting stability and function, making them an excellent investment in your oral health.

Maintenance is simple—just brush, floss, and visit your dentist regularly, as you would with your natural teeth. Single-tooth implants are designed to look and feel like real teeth, giving you a confident, natural smile.

Most patients qualify for single-tooth implants. However, if you have untreated tooth decay or gum disease, these issues must be addressed first to ensure a strong, healthy foundation for the implant. Once your oral health is optimized, the implant process can proceed smoothly to deliver a reliable and functional tooth replacement.
