Dental Implant Restoration

Don’t let compromised teeth hold you back. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Zelby today and transform your smile into a masterpiece that reflects your personality.

A tooth restoration is your “new tooth,” which will be placed on your dental implant to form a complete tooth. The implant acts as the new root, and your restoration will be carefully placed onto the implant to form a complete new tooth. Many new tooth restorations are too generic, not the correct size and some are too big, too white and do not aesthetically blend with your facial structure and smile. As a specialist in tooth restoration, a prosthodontist, Dr. David Zelby makes certain your tooth is as natural appearing and designed specifically for you. Choosing the correct shade of color, size and shape are all procedures only a specialist can provide. It should never look like you have a “new tooth,” but blend seamless into your smile and perfect and restore your apperance.

Dental Implants are a transformative dental procedure designed to replace missing or damaged teeth, providing patients with a functional and aesthetically pleasing solution. This process involves surgically placing titanium posts into the jawbone, which serve as artificial tooth roots.

Once the implants are integrated with the bone, custom-made crowns are attached, mimicking the appearance and function of natural teeth. This not only restores the ability to chew and speak effectively but also preserves the structure of the jawbone and enhances overall facial aesthetics. With proper care, dental implants can last many years, making them a durable choice for patients seeking a long-term solution for tooth loss.

Does Your dental care demand a higher level of expertise?

Prosthodontists specialize in treating the most difficult and challenging dental cases.

Your tooth restoration is equally important when chosing dental implants.

A prosthodontist is a highly trained dental specialist focused on the restoration and replacement of teeth, utilizing advanced techniques to create beautiful, natural-looking custom solutions for patients.

Whether due to decay, injury, or congenital issues, losing a natural tooth can significantly impact one's appearance and self-confidence. Prosthodontists employ their expertise to craft tailored restorations, such as crowns, bridges, dentures, and dental implants, ensuring that each replacement tooth not only blends seamlessly with the surrounding teeth but also functions effectively.

Their meticulous attention to detail and artistry make it possible for individuals to regain their smiles while enjoying the comfort and functionality of custom-designed prosthetic teeth.
