IMPLANT RESTORATIONS

When you hear the term “dental implant restoration,” it doesn’t mean repairing or fixing a damaged implant. Instead, it refers to the process of attaching a custom-made dental prosthesis to an implant post once it has been placed in the jaw. This is the final step in completing an implant treatment, transforming the implant from a secure foundation into a fully functioning, natural-looking tooth replacement.

Implants themselves act as artificial tooth roots, but without the restoration on top, they cannot restore your ability to chew, speak, or smile with confidence. That’s where implant restorations come in—they are the visible, functional replacements that give you a complete smile.

Types of Dental Implant Restorations

The type of implant restoration you receive depends on how many teeth need replacement and your overall treatment goals. Common options include:

Single Crowns | Replace one missing tooth with a custom porcelain or ceramic crown that blends naturally and doesn’t rely on neighboring teeth for support.

Implant-Supported Bridges | Anchor a bridge to two or more implants to replace multiple teeth in a row without stressing adjacent teeth.

Implant-Supported Dentures | Restore most or all teeth with dentures that are stabilized by implants, available as either fixed (permanent) or removable (overdentures).
