Permanent Tooth Replacement

Dental Implants in Albuquerque, NM

Missing teeth affect more than your smile. They can change how you eat, speak, and feel about yourself. Dental implants offer a permanent, natural-feeling way to restore your smile, from a single tooth to a full arch.

What Makes Implants Different

Unlike bridges or dentures that rest on or around your existing teeth and gums, dental implants are placed directly into your jawbone, where they function much like the root of a natural tooth. This gives implants a level of stability and longevity that other tooth replacement options can't match.

Implants can also help preserve your jawbone over time, since chewing pressure is transferred to the bone just as it would be with a natural tooth root.

Who Benefits From Dental Implants

Implants can work well for a single missing tooth, several teeth in a row, or an entire arch, depending on your needs. Good candidates typically have healthy gums and enough jawbone to support an implant, though there are solutions for patients with bone loss as well. Your dentist will evaluate your specific situation to recommend the right option.
