Dental Implants at Hershey Family Dentistry

At Hershey Family Dentistry, we specialize in providing state-of-the-art solutions for replacing missing teeth. Our team is dedicated to restoring not only the functionality of your teeth but also the natural beauty of your smile with dental implants.

What Are Dental Implants? Dental implants are a revolutionary way to replace missing teeth. They consist of a titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone to act as a root for an artificial tooth. A custom-made crown is then attached to the post, providing a durable and natural-looking replacement.

Benefits of Dental Implants:

Natural Appearance: Implants are designed to look and feel like your natural teeth, blending seamlessly with your smile.
Improved Functionality: With dental implants, you can eat, speak, and smile with confidence, knowing your replacement teeth are secure.
Preservation of Bone: Implants help maintain the structure of your jawbone by preventing bone loss that often occurs with missing teeth.
Longevity: With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime, making them a cost-effective long-term solution.
Protection of Adjacent Teeth: Unlike traditional bridges, implants do not require altering neighboring healthy teeth.

The Dental Implant Process: The process of getting dental implants involves several steps:

Consultation and Planning: Our team will assess your oral health and create a personalized treatment plan.
Surgical Placement: The titanium post is surgically implanted into your jawbone.
Healing and Osseointegration: The implant integrates with the bone over several months.
Abutment Placement: A small connector is attached to the implant to hold the new tooth.
Crown Attachment: A custom-made crown is attached to the abutment, completing your new smile.
