Dental Implants to Replace Missing Teeth

At Bradshaw Periodontics, dental implants are often recommended as the ideal solution for replacing missing teeth. A small titanium or zirconia post is carefully placed into the jawbone, serving as an artificial tooth root and a stable foundation for new teeth. This post can support various attachments used to restore individual teeth or anchor dentures.

Dental implants are highly biocompatible, allowing them to integrate naturally with the human body. Over a period of three to six months, the implant fuses with the jawbone in a process called osseointegration, creating a strong, lasting bond similar to that of a natural tooth root. Once this healing phase is complete, our periodontists will work closely with your restorative dentist to fully restore both the function and beauty of your smile.

Dental Implants vs Dentures

  • At our practice in The Woodlands, dental implants are fused with your bone and provide a stable, secure anchor for your crowns.
  • When performed at The Woodlands, dental implants consist of bio-compatible materials, which is responsible for the high rate of success patients enjoy with dental implants.
  • Dental implants help stop bone deterioration through the process of osseointegration. The titanium posts fuse with and stimulate the jawbone, much like natural tooth roots, maintaining bone density and strength.
  • At our practice in The Woodlands, dental implants are used to replace single, multiple, or all of your missing teeth.

  • Dentures are commonly held in place with adhesive and as such, are not considered stable or secure. The major complaint is that dentures slip or make clicking noises.
  • Dentures are generally made up of acrylic, metal, and plastic materials, which can be difficult on the gums.
  • Dentures, unfortunately, may need replacement because of age or progressive bone loss.
  • The bone loss that occurs at the site of missing teeth is not affected by dentures, because they sit on top of the gum line.
  • Dentures can only replace multiple or a full set of missing teeth.
