Dental Implants

Are you missing a tooth or multiple teeth? Want your smile to look natural and perfect?

Dental implants are considered the standard of care for prosthetic replacement of missing teeth in dentistry. A dental implant is a surgical fixture that is placed into the jawbone and allowed to fuse with the bone over the span of a few months. The implant, in fact, replaces the root of a missing tooth. In turn, this artificial tooth root serves to hold a replacement tooth or bridge.

Dental implants can be used to replace a single tooth, several teeth, or all of the teeth.

How A Dental Implant Can Help You

Having a dental implant fused to the jawbone is the closest thing to mimicking a natural tooth because it stands on its own without affecting the nearby teeth and has great stability.

It’s an excellent option for filling in a gap and helping restore your tooth’s function, such as chewing and speaking. There are no limits to a dental implant. You can replace as many teeth as you want with this innovative technology.

At Hutt Dental Hub, we don’t offer implants in house, however, if you are one of our patients and would like to replace a missing tooth, we can refer you to Central Hutt Dental, another one of our clinics in Lower Hutt. The experienced dental team can create an implant for you there and get you looking happy and healthy again. As we work closely together with this clinic, we will ensure they know all your background information and get you the treatment you need!
