Implants to Last a Lifetime

Missing teeth means you bite and chew differently, and maybe even talk differently. There are replacement options, but often they won’t last a lifetime. Wouldn’t a permanent solution be ideal? At Cadena Dentistry in Del Rio, TX, we offer dental implants to replace our patients’ missing teeth that can last a lifetime.


Implants are permanently placed in your mouth. The titanium implant post is placed into the bone socket, where it will bond with the jawbone. This healing process can take between three and six months, so while it is healing, Dr. Cadenas will fit you with temporary crowns. When the permanent and customized crown is ready, an abutment is attached to the implant post. The permanent crown is then cemented into place.


Dental implants are a great option because they don’t require healthy teeth to be reduced in order to place them. Being a single tooth replacement, brushing and flossing is made easier, so oral health is maintained with regular care. With a good oral hygiene routine, implants can last a lifetime.


If you are missing teeth and are interested in finding out more about this permanent solution, schedule an appointment at Cadena Dentistry here in Del Rio, TX. Find out how you can restore a smile and restore your oral health. Call (830) 775-3322 or visit our website, www.cadenadentistry.com
