Dentists in the Fremont area understand the importance of not only a beautiful smile but a functional one. When patients are faced with natural tooth loss, they need to consider the benefits of restoration. Replacing the tooth can be done in a variety of ways, dentures, bridges, and dental implants. A dentist such as Dr. Munira Lokhandwala of StarBrite Dental can assist patients in determining the solution best for them. For some, it may be dental implants.
Implants are metal posts that Dr. Munira Lokhandwala can surgically place into the bone of the jaw. The jawbone supports and stabilizes the dental implant and makes it one of the strongest, most effective restorations available in general and cosmetic dentistry. In most cases, a dental implant is restored over the top with a custom-made dental crown, which is a cap made of porcelain and fabricated to match the existing teeth within the smile. Other times the dental implant may be repaired with a dental bridge or a full cosmetic denture, depending on the needs of patients.
Dr. Munira Lokhandwala will often suggest dental implants when patients have sufficient jawbone for placement. Implants have a number of advantages.
If you live within the Fremont area and have considered the placement of dental implants or other restorative solutions to maintain the health, wellness, and function of your smile, contact Dr. Munira Lokhandwala and the team of StarBrite Dental today.
