If you’re missing one or more teeth, you know how much it can affect your confidence and everyday life. At The Healing Art of Dentistry, our goal is to help you feel comfortable, cared for and excited about your smile again. Dr. Franziska Dutton and Dr. Daniel Cohen are passionate about helping our Redding, CA, community restore their smiles with dental implants that look and feel natural.
What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are small, biocompatible posts that act as artificial tooth roots. They provide a sturdy foundation for replacement teeth, allowing you to eat, speak and smile with confidence. Our approach is designed to ensure you feel informed and supported every step of the way, so your new smile fits your needs and lifestyle comfortably.
The Dental Implant Process
With dental implants, your new tooth or teeth can have excellent strength and stability — and, most importantly, can look and feel like your natural teeth.
- Implants are recommended to replace a missing tooth or multiple teeth.
- An implant post is placed into the area where the tooth is missing. Over time, the bone fuses to the implant, creating a solid foundation.
- A customized crown or bridge is then permanently secured to the implant.
- Implants help restore the natural beauty, function and health of your smile.
Understanding the Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants are a reliable way to restore your smile so you can eat, speak and laugh with confidence again. They are designed to look and feel like your natural teeth, which means they blend in beautifully with your smile and support comfortable, everyday function.
Because implants act like artificial tooth roots, they also help keep the jawbone strong and support the natural shape of your face over time. Unlike some other options, dental implants do not rely on neighboring teeth for support, allowing our dentists to protect as much healthy tooth structure as possible. With consistent home care and regular visits to our office in Redding, CA, dental implants can be a long-lasting investment in both your oral health and overall wellbeing.
Are Dental Implants Right for You?
Whether you are missing a single tooth or several teeth, you may be a good candidate for dental implants. Ideal candidates generally have healthy gums and enough bone to support an implant, but even if you have had missing teeth for some time, our dentists can discuss options to prepare the area for treatment.
During your visit, Dr. Franziska Dutton or Dr. Daniel Cohen will listen to your goals, review your medical and dental history, and use digital imaging to understand your unique situation. Together, you will explore whether dental implants, a bridge or another solution is the best fit for your smile, lifestyle and long-term health. Our team is dedicated to making your experience as comfortable and supportive as possible, so you feel confident in every step of your implant journey.
