Implant Restoration

Today's standard of care for replacing missing teeth

Are missing teeth interfering with your smile and impacting your quality of life? Dental implants are the gold-standard tooth replacement solution, restoring your smile’s health, function, and beautiful, natural appearance. Dr. Park and his team at River Village Dental offer implant restorations made from the highest quality materials, delivering results second only to natural, healthy teeth. Contact our Chicago practice to get your smile back on track.

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are small titanium posts that are surgically placed in your jawbone. In the following months, your implants will fuse to the jawbone in a process known as osseointegration. This provides an incredibly secure and stable foundation for implant restorations that look, feel, and function like natural teeth. We complete the process by creating implant restorations meticulously crafted to match your smile. Whether you are missing one, several, or a complete arch of teeth, implant dentistry may be the perfect solution for you.

The following is a look at the implant restorations we offer right here at our Chicago practice:

Single Tooth Implants:An aesthetic dental crown placed on a single implant offers a top-tier solution for replacing a missing tooth, leaving you with a healthy, functional smile.
Implant-Supported Bridges: Implant-supported bridges offer a superior solution for replacing two or more teeth in a row, providing exceptional stability and function.
Implant-Supported Dentures:These removable overdentures snap onto several implants placed strategically in your jawbone, offering a more secure, stable, and functional alternative to traditional dentures.

What Are the Benefits of Dental Implants?

Dental implants offer numerous benefits, including the following:

They Look Natural: We meticulously craft implant restorations to match your teeth, leaving you with a natural-looking smile.
They Support Facial Structure: Your new teeth will support your facial structure, preventing the sunken, hollow appearance that may occur due to tooth loss.
They Prevent Bone Loss: Implants are the only restorations that act like tooth roots, supporting the jawbone, and preventing the loss that occurs after tooth loss.
They Are Stable: Your implants integrate with your jawbone, providing a secure and stable foundation for implant restorations made to the specifications of your smile.

They Restore Function: Replacing one, several, or a complete arch of missing teeth with dental implants will help you eat, speak, and smile with confidence and comfort once again.
They Preserve Alignment: Dental implants prevent the remaining teeth from shifting and tilting out of position, maintaining the healthy alignment of your teeth and bite.
They Are Long-Lasting: Dental implants are highly successful and durable, and with proper care and ongoing maintenance, they have the potential to last a lifetime!

The Importance of Implant Maintenance

Caring for your dental implants is critical to their long-term success. Make sure you maintain excellent at-home oral hygiene practices, including regular brushing and flossing. It is also important to keep up with your dental exams and cleanings as recommended to ensure your smile lasts as long as possible.
