Dental Implants in Reedley, CA

When a tooth is lost, it is important to replace it as soon as you can. The gum and bone tissue that the teeth are sitting in begin to deteriorate soon after the tooth is lost, which can make it difficult to replace in the future. At Hispano Dental Care of Reedley, CA, we aim to provide our patients with the best options for their oral health, which is why dental implants are an option here.


Dental implants are the most durable option for a tooth replacement that there is. This is because the implant is actually bonded with your jawbone like the root of a natural tooth. The titanium implant post is surgically inserted into your bone socket so it can bond.


Since the process is surgical, a healing time is required before the permanent replacement crown can be attached. During this time you will wear a temporary crown which will allow use of the tooth and protection for the area.


Dental implants are able to last a lifetime with good dental care. A good oral care routine for home including brushing two or three times per day and flossing daily is a good start. Routine visits to your dentist for cleanings and examinations will also make sure the implant stays in good shape.


If you are missing one or more teeth and want a permanent replacement, a dental implant is your solution. To schedule an appointment with Hispano Dental Care of Reedley, CA, give us a call at (559) 637-0123 or visit our website, www.hispanodentalcare.net
