The Benefits of Dental Implants

The loss of a tooth is often embarrassing, but it can also negatively impact your ability to chew or speak properly, and left untreated, can have a detrimental effect on your oral and general health. A Wilson family dentist at Boles Ham Dixon & Boles may be able to help you restore your smile and rejuvenate your self-confidence with dental implants.

A dental implant is an artificial tooth root placed within your jawbone to provide a sound foundation for a prosthetic tooth. Some advantages of dental implants include:

• Realism: Dental implants not only provide an authentic look, they feel and perform naturally.
• Strength: Implants distribute chewing force to your jaw, helping to relieve stress on individual teeth.
• Maintenance: You can continue your normal oral hygiene regimen, without the need of specialized tools.
• Durability: Implants do not decay. Once an implant is secured, it will never need to be replaced.

Dr. William Boles Jr., Dr. Harvey Ham and Dr. Scott Dixon have extensive training and experience in dental implant procedures. At your initial consultation, our Wilson family dentist will thoroughly examine your oral condition and discuss your individual needs. You will then be provided with a recommendation that best suits your specific situation.

Dental implants require healthy bone, and are not right for everyone. Our experienced dentists will help you make the best choice for how to correct your missing or damaged teeth.

We understand that cost can be a factor when considering dental procedures. We offer several financing options to help both our insured and uninsured patients. Depending on your credit score, you may be able to qualify for our 12-month, 0% financing option through CareCredit.
