Implant Dentistry

If you have missing teeth and want to smile, speak and eat again with comfort and confidence, dental implants offer you the best, most stable and longest-lasting solution for replacing missing teeth or dentures.
Dental implants are specially-made titanium anchors that are placed into the jawbone where teeth are missing. Once the bone bonds with the titanium, a post is inserted into the anchor and an artificial tooth (crown) is attached to the post. If you have healthy gums and bone, you might be a candidate for dental implants.
Thanks to advanced technology, today’s dental implants look, feel and function like natural teeth. Besides looking like natural teeth, implants also feel and function like natural teeth. In fact, dental implants are so comfortable and natural-looking, you may forget you ever lost a tooth.
Depending on your situation, Dr. Nguyen can use implants to:
- 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 secure and comfortable
- Restore function and balance to your bite
- Give you a naturally beautiful smile
To find out if you are a candidate for dental implants, call our Implant Dentistry office in Merced, California at (209) 385-1479 to request an appointment with Dr. Khang Nguyen.
