Tooth loss can have a serious impact on your day-to-day life. If you are missing teeth, or if you have had teeth extracted due to dental health problems, then you are well aware of these daily struggles. Dr. Vidya Reddy meets patients who are struggling to chew their food properly, to pronounce certain words the way they normally would, to smile with their usual sense of pride – all because of tooth loss. That is why our Sudbury dentist is so pleased to offer a viable solution to this problem: dental implant restorations. Dental implant restorations allow for the full replacement of your missing tooth or teeth in a way that looks and feels totally natural. The first step to enjoying this tooth replacement is to schedule an appointment with Dr. Vidya Reddy for an initial consultation and examination. During this visit, we will discuss the current state of your teeth and the issues you are dealing with. Then, Dr. Reddy will carefully examine your teeth in order to determine the best course of action. Our Sudbury dentist will check to make sure you are a good candidate for a dental implant restoration—such as, if you have healthy gums, if you have a sufficient amount of underlying bone mass in your jaw, and so on. If you do not meet the immediate criteria, Dr. Reddy can recommend preliminary services that can help get you ready for a successful implant restoration. The next step is to have the actual implant surgically inserted in your jaw. The implant is small and metal, and it serves as the root for your new replacement tooth. Next, a fully customized dental crown is attached to the implant, completing the restoration.
