Dental Implants

Many Americans suffer tooth loss at some point in their lives. Tooth loss is usually due to tooth decay, gum disease or injury. For many years, the only options available for missing teeth were bridges or dentures.

We believe that no patient needs to accept a life with missing teeth! In addition to changing facial appearance, missing teeth can have a negative impact on confidence and self-esteem. The staff at Win Dentistry is highly trained and can provide you with a dental solution that will change your life forever.

Dr. Nguyen and his staff can provide dental implants that look, feel and function exactly like your natural teeth.

Advantages of Dental Implants

• Improved appearance
• Improved speech
• Improved comfort
• Improved ability to chew
• Improved self-esteem
• Improved oral health

Why Implants?

Dental implants can achieve the following:

• Replace one or more teeth without affecting bordering teeth
• Support a bridge and eliminate the need for a removable partial denture
• Provide support for a denture making it more comfortable and secure

Types of Implants

There are basically two types of implants used today:

• Endosteal (in the bone). This is the most common type of implant used, and each implant holds one or more prosthetic teeth. This type of implant is often used as an alternative for patients with bridges or removable dentures.
• Subperiosteal (on the bone). These implants are placed on top of the jaw with the metal framework’s posts protruding through the gum to hold the prosthesis. These implants are used for patients who are unable to wear conventional dentures and who have minimal bone height.

After you have received an implant, it is important to keep up with at home oral care and regular visits to Dr. Nguyen to ensure your implant stays in place for many years.
