Dental Implants
Dental implants can be the best way to replace your missing teeth, prevent jawbone shrinkage, and restore your smile's form and function.
Dr. Joan Kirschner of Plymouth General Dentistry in Plymouth, NH, can restore your dental implants with lifelike, customized restorations.
How can Dr. Kirschner's restorations complete the implant process and make dental issues related to missing teeth a thing of the past?
Dental Implants Offer Many Benefits
Dentistry professionals consider implants to be the best solution for missing teeth. Here's why:
Long-Lasting
Implants are usually made of titanium, which, with proper dental care, can last a lifetime in your jawbone.
Improves Jawbone Health
Your jawbone can shrink and weaken where natural teeth are missing. This can cause serious dental issues. Implants are the only solution that prevents jawbone atrophy.
Better Support for Dentures
Traditional full-arch dentures are held in place by dental adhesive, so they can fall out or slip. Dentures that Dr. Kirschner attaches to implants stay firmly in place, allowing you to eat and talk with confidence.
Improves Your Appearance
Besides the gaps in your smile, missing teeth can also give your cheeks a shriveled, aged look. Implants with attached restorations can fill out your face and smile, making you look younger and healthier.
Eat Your Favorite Foods
Missing teeth can make biting and chewing downright painful. Restorations attached to implants allow you to eat pretty much anything you want, including nuts, raw fruits, and crunchy vegetables.
Better Speaking Ability
Did you know that your tongue needs teeth to pronounce words? Just one missing tooth can cause garbled speech. Implants can improve this dental issue.
A Look at Dental Implant Placement
Dental implants are surgically placed to act as artificial tooth roots. Crowns, dentures, or bridges are then attached to a connector in the implant called an abutment. These dental restorations will be expertly customized to match the look of your natural teeth. Whether you are missing one tooth or every tooth, a dental implant consultation at Dr. Kirschner's practice in Plymouth, New Hampshire, is the first step to restoring your smile and oral health.

Your Restoration Options

Used most often for single tooth replacement, a dental crown is a porcelain prosthetic customized to fit your bite and blend naturally into your smile.
To replace more than one missing tooth in a row, Dr. Kirschner can use a dental bridge. A bridge is comprised of artificial teeth bookended by two crowns.
Replacing all of your teeth has never been more efficient than with implant-supported dentures. When you attach your dentures to dental implants, you can say goodbye to messy adhesives.

My Daughters and I have been recieving excellent care from Dr. Kirschner and her team at Plymouth General Dentistry ever since she moved to the area. I am fortunate to recieve regular cleanings from her hygienists. The ladies in the front office are extreemly helpful in all aspects of scheduling, reminder phone calls in advance (as well as an email confirmation) explaining billing - what is and what might not be covered by insurance. If anyone moving to the Plymouth area was looking for a dentist for themself or their family I would encourage you to give the office a call.
