Dental Implants in Boulder, Colorado

If you’ve got one or more missing teeth, you may be missing out on more than just a great smile. Dr. Kupka recommends dental implants as a solution to missing teeth, not only to improve the appearance of your smile, but also to ensure a harmonious bite and a healthy mouth.

Many people don’t realize that a missing tooth can have far-reaching implications. A missing tooth can not only throw your bite out of balance, but it can also cause teeth on either side to shift and weaken. The opposing jaw teeth can also super-erupt leaving interdental spaces and jaw pain. Those with missing teeth may experience additional dental problems, such as frequent cavities, difficulty chewing, and even symptoms of TMJ, such as headaches and jaw soreness. Lost teeth that are not replaced can also lead to jaw bone deterioration.

Dental implants can restore a complete smile and help you achieve bite balance. Dental implants are essentially a substitute tooth root integrated in bone; then a lifelike replacement tooth is fabricated which anchors to the implant “root”.

An implant retains all of the natural functions of a real tooth, including providing strength and support to other teeth and bonding with the jaw bone. Your new tooth will look, feel and function just like your natural tooth. And guess what? Your implant will not decay! On top of the health benefits, a replacement tooth adds comfort and allows you to speak, smile and eat with ease.
