Of course, permanent tooth loss is something <strong><a title=\"Lake Oconee Cosmetic Dentists\" href=\"https:\/\/lakeoconeedentalblog.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Drs. Patti, David and Phil<\/a><\/strong> and their team always do their best to prevent. However, it isn\u2019t always possible. <strong>The great news is that today there are beautiful and functional solutions.<\/strong><em>Implant dentistry is not something new,<\/em> although from its original origins in the 50\u2019s <strong>it has indeed come a long way<\/strong>. Initial discoveries came when scientists learned how bones can fuse with titanium, making natural bone support possible. Today, Lake Oconee Dentistry uses this original discovery to copy the root and tooth system that your mouth naturally has.<\/p>\n<p>Implants are first placed within the gum line. Then, they are given about 3\u20136 months healing time <em><strong>to ensure that there is complete and proper fusion with the bone.<\/strong><\/em> After the implants have healed, the custom crown, bridge, or dentures can be placed. After this placement (unlike traditional dentures or bridges) the solution is much stronger and long lasting, giving you <strong>the confident smile you deserve<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>As with most dental procedures, dental implants begin <strong><a title=\"Make An Appointment with Dr. Bradley\" href=\"https:\/\/lakeoconeedentalblog.com\/contact\/\" target=\"_blank\">with a consultation<\/a><\/strong> with Dr. Patti Bradley, Dr. David Bradley, or Dr. Phil Boswell to help with any questions and allow them the chance to create a custom-tailored plan that best meets your needs.<\/p>\n<h3>Here is a simple video illustration of just how simply dental implants work:<\/h3>\n<p><strong><em>To learn more about how implant dentistry corrects and enhances smiles, schedule an appointment to visit with us.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>Be sure to take a minute to connect with us on Facebook by clicking on the logo below!<\/h3>\n<p><a title=\"Lake Oconee Dentists on Facebook\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/LakeOconeeDental\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-219\" src=\"https:\/\/lakeoconeedentalblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/i00032_FBlogo11-300x113.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"113\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>FROM COMMON THINGS LIKE WEAR AND TEAR, TO TRAUMA OR DISEASE,<\/strong> there are adults who have experienced&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,9,10,11],"tags":[34,58,85,90,95],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.5 -
