Dental Implants
Even one missing tooth can diminish your appearance and compromise oral wellbeing. You deserve a healthy, attractive, and complete smile. As experienced implant dentists, Drs. Schutte and McKnight use custom-made dental implants to restore beauty and vitality to smiles marred by missing teeth.
A dental implant mimics a natural tooth, making it the prosthetic of choice for many patients. A comprehensive exam will determine whether dental implants are right for your smile. If you qualify, we will refer you to a trusted implant dentist who will place tiny titanium posts in your jaw, one for each implant or a few to secure a dental bridge. The posts serve as tooth roots to anchor custom crowns or your prosthetic. Dr. McKnight will work closely with your implant dentist, then she will design and place your final crown, bridge, or denture in our office. The result will be a healthy, beautiful, natural-looking smile.
