Dental implants NOT ONLY RESTORE A TOOTH, THEY ALSO
Even after years of discomfort or missing teeth, Dr. Hughes can offer a solution to get your bite and your smile back in beautiful working order. We can replace a single tooth or several missing teeth, often all at one time. We also replace non-restorable teeth or those that are causing such pain that they must be removed. Additionally, dental implants can be helpful to the overall health of the mouth or to improve speech. While you will have quick recovery time after the procedure, the durability of implants is long lasting and will improve more than just the gap between other teeth.
Often times if the teeth have been missing for a long period of time there is no longer enough bone to support an implant. In such cases Dr. Hughes augments (builds up) the existing bone using various bone grafting procedures utilizing the patient's own growth factors concentrated out of their own blood. This is called Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP). This enables the placement of implants and restorations of the dentition.
