Dental Implants in Traverse City and Petoskey
If you’re looking to boost your self-esteem by filling the gaps in your smile, dental implants may be the ideal solution for you. These natural-looking tooth replacements are made of durable materials and can last a lifetime.
Dental implants are attached directly to your jawbone, making them fully functioning and stable. The implant fixture is covered with a tooth-shaped crown, so no one will even know it’s not your natural tooth. Feel good about smiling, speaking, and eating again with comfort and confidence.
Dental Implant Process
At Northwood Dental, we strive to restore your smile in a timely manner. We know how missing teeth negatively affect your health and appearance and want you to receive the life-changing experience of dental implants as soon as possible.
The process starts with an in-office consultation. This is where you’ll discuss your goals and receive an evaluation from Dr. Klym. We offer single, multiple, and full arch replacements at both of our locations.
Based on this first visit, he’ll create a customized treatment plan to make sure you receive the best implant solution for your specific needs. We’ll then take digital images of your mouth. For the final step, you’ll come back to our office to have your dental implants fitted and your smile restored.
Our Technology
Taking measurements is a crucial step of the dental implant process because these digital images determine what size to make the implants and where to place them.
To ensure accuracy, we use our Itero 2 scanner to take 3D images of your teeth and gums. The advanced technology of this scanner allows for more precise and detailed images. The Itero 2 scanner can even simulate what your mouth will look like with dental implants to ensure you’re satisfied with your results.
The Benefits of Dental Implants
When compared to other types of restorative options, dental implants offer many short and long-term benefits to your oral and general health. By restoring your smile, they improve your confidence and allow you to eat your favorite foods without worrying about your restorations being damaged or coming loose.
They also strengthen your jawbone by taking the place of your natural tooth roots, which keeps your entire mouth healthy. Dental implants will make you want to smile more, which can lead to an elevated quality of life.
