Are you thinking about dental implants in Cornelius, NC?
Missing or failing teeth have a big impact on your daily life. Actions we often take for granted are compromised, such as eating and chewing comfortably or even ordering whatever we’d like from the menu. Often, your nutrition suffers as well.
Damaged teeth also take a toll on your confidence when you feel embarrassed about talking or smiling in front of others.
You may not realize it, but your missing tooth is also impacting your oral health.
When your bone has no root to support, it will begin to deteriorate, or resorb, which changes the appearance of your face and eliminates the support system for your healthy teeth. Without a tooth replacement, your remaining teeth begin to shift into the open space. Not only does this cause bite misalignment, it also increases the risk of damage or fractures to your healthy teeth.
When you’re missing one or more of your teeth, it often results in additional tooth loss.
The good news is Cornelius Dentistry has solutions for you, and dental implants may be able to help!
Did you know that root canal therapy actually relieves the pain of your infection? It’s true! You can also count on our gentle Cornelius, NC dentist to put you at ease.
We’re here to set the record straight on this widely misunderstood treatment so there no longer has to be fear surrounding it.
A dental implant is the most successful tooth replacement option because it restores your root with a titanium post and your tooth with an aesthetically pleasing porcelain crown. Because it’s bio-compatible, the implant will naturally integrate with your bone over healing period of 3 to 5 months, which creates a stable foundation for your new tooth.
When your implant is ready our dentists, your implant dentist in Cornelius, NC, will restore your tooth with a customized crown designed to deliver all the function you had before your tooth loss. You’ll be able to eat and chew with ease again and you’ll feel confident about your smile when you talk with someone.
Our team can determine if dental implants in Cornelius, NC are right for your needs with a thorough dental examination and x-rays. We want to ensure that you’re in good overall health and that you have enough healthy bone structure present to support the implant. If implants will suit your needs, you’ll be happy to know that we can complete both the placement and restoration of your implant here at Cornelius Dentistry.

Dental implants are dentistry’s gold standard for replacing missing teeth, and at Cornelius Dentistry, we’re proud to offer comprehensive implant dentistry. This means that you can complete every aspect of your implant at our office – including the surgical placement of your implant, which is a procedure that many other dentists refer their patients out for.
Here’s how an implant works: First, we’ll place a titanium post into your jawbone that will take the place of your root. Titanium is biocompatible, so it will integrate naturally with your bone during a 3 to 5 month healing period and create a firm foundation for your new tooth.
Next, once your implant is ready, we’ll customize a high-quality porcelain crown that will complement your smile while providing all the function you were used to with your natural tooth. You’ll find that you’re eating, chewing, talking, and smiling with confidence and ease again. You’ll also be able to brush and floss as you were used to, so your implant is easy to care for.
Dental implants are ideal for supporting dental prosthetics such as a bridge or full denture, allowing us to replace multiple missing teeth. In fact, dental implants offer denture wearers a more secure and stable fit than traditional dentures since there’s no movement or slippage when you talk or eat.
