Whenever you lose a tooth, the force of your bite shifts to the teeth next to the empty space. As your bite changes, it may cause difficulty in chewing, damage to your jaw, cause other teeth to shift and extrude out of socket, and also makes it harder to clean teeth, resulting in tooth decay and periodontal diseases. That is why it is critical to receive teeth replacement from our Eastchester cosmetic dentist to ensure your teeth and mouth maintain their proper function, form, health, and beauty.
At the office of Todd D Wortman, DMD, we create individual smiles that compliment a patient's facial features and enhance their overall facial beauty. Our team seeks to establish facial harmony where the smile is not the central focal point, but enhances the overall facial appearance. One of the ways our Eastchester cosmetic dentist does that for our patients is through replacing missing teeth with dental implants. Our dental implants are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth. The implants themselves are tiny titanium posts that are placed by our dentist into the jawbone where teeth are missing. The bone bonds with the titanium, creating a strong foundation for artificial teeth. Small posts are then attached to the implant, which protrude through the gums. These posts provide stable anchors for artificial replacement teeth. In addition, implants can help preserve facial structure, preventing the bone deterioration that occurs when teeth are missing. You will regain the ability to eat virtually anything and can smile with confidence, knowing that teeth appear natural and that facial contours will be preserved.
If, like many others, you feel implant dentistry is the choice for you, we ask that you undergo a dental/radiographic examination and health history. During these consultation visits, your specific needs and considerations will be addressed our team of Eastchester cosmetic dentist. At the office of Todd D Wortman, DMD, we take the time to customize and personalize the treatment for each patient. Your visits with us are all about you, your happiness, your comfort, and your dental health. We strive to ensure our patients of all ages have a pleasant experience, and are sent home with a bright, beautiful, healthy smile. You never get the chance to make a second impression, so let teeth replacement with our dental implants ensure you leave a lasting and smiling impression.
