Dental Implants in St. Louis,
MO & Florissant, MO
Today there is no reason to live with the inconvenience
and embarrassment of missing teeth. If you’re missing teeth,
dental implants can restore function, appearance, and durability
to your smile! A dental implant looks and feels just like a natural
tooth. Dental implants can also be used to secure dentures
or partials in the mouth to increase comfort and security.
Dental implants are modeled after real teeth, with
a sturdy prosthetic root and an aesthetic tooth reconstruction.
First, an oral surgeon or periodontist places a small titanium post
in the socket left by a missing tooth. Your bone tissue fuses with
the titanium post to form a secure foundation that mimics a natural
root. Then Dr. Quade or Dr. First will place a permanent aesthetic
crown on top of the post. The crown will look and function like
a natural tooth.
Dental implants prevent bone deterioration, promote
full facial shape, and create a long-lasting, youthful smile that
will allow you to eat whatever you like, whenever you like! When
they are used to secure dentures, there are no more denture adhesives.
There are no troublesome care routines. Just brush, floss, and visit
Dr. Quade or Dr. First for your bi-annual checkups.
If your smile is missing teeth, reclaim your quality
of life with natural looking, strong dental implants. Contact
our Florissant or St. Charles dental office to schedule an evaluation.
Dr. Quade or Dr. First will determine if you are a candidate for
dental implants. See the dental
implants article in our online library for more details.
