What Are Dental Implants?
Dental Implants are a way of replacing a missing tooth that mimics the natural anatomy of a tooth. A dental implant that replaces a tooth consists of two parts:
1. The Implant, which is a cylinder made of biocompatible titanium that is placed surgically in your jawbone below the gums, that heals and fuses to the bone over a few months.
2. The Connector and Porcelain Crown anchors to the implant. Once completed, the dental implant fits perfectly with your other teeth, is very strong, and functions like a natural tooth, thereby restoring your teeth and smile back to its beauty, health, and function. Our cosmetic dentists provide natural looking crowns that match the color, shape, and translucency of your natural teeth.

Even if you have multiple missing teeth or badly damaged teeth, modern dentistry has incredible ways to help you. We have transformed the health and aesthetics of hundreds and hundreds of people who believed there was no hope for their teeth. Prosthodontics may be the ideal solution for you if you want to correct some of the following issues:

The team at Signature Dentistry of Denver, has been successfully replacing missing teeth with dental implants for over twenty years. While the process takes a few months to complete, the end result and benefits make it well worth it. The process of having a dental implant done has two distinct steps:

Restoration – After a few months, once your dental implant has fused to the jawbone, you will return to have an impression taken of the implant. This will be used by the dental laboratory technician to create a precise connector and crown for the implant, matching your natural teeth’s color, shape, size, and bite. When you return to our office a few weeks later we anchor the final prosthesis to the implants and complete restoration of the natural teeth. Our doctors take time at this appointment to get the fine details of your bite and smile feeling and looking great. Implants, if maintained properly, can last for decades or even a lifetime.
