Dental Implants - Falls Church, VA
Drs. Love and Miller, P.C. is pleased to provide Falls Church dental implants, a safe, effective solution for replacing missing teeth. Dental implants offer an excellent way to restore your smile—whether you are missing one tooth, several teeth, or require more comprehensive implant treatment. Our dedicated team is here to offer expert implant dentistry in Falls Church.
Unlike other restorative options, dental implants replace the entire structure of your tooth, from the root to the crown. This means your implant functions just like a natural tooth, allowing you to speak, eat, laugh, and live confidently—free of pain or discomfort.
Best of all, dental implants look and feel like real teeth. Most people will never know you have an implant!
What Is a Dental Implant?
A dental implant acts as an artificial tooth root, providing a strong base for a replacement tooth or larger prosthetics such as dentures. Implants can be used to support a single replacement tooth, multiple teeth, or even secure dentures, depending on your needs. The placement of an implant helps maintain bone structure and can prevent the bone loss that often follows tooth removal, ensuring lasting support, stability, and aesthetics. Unlike other methods that require changes to surrounding teeth, implants are a long-lasting, non-invasive option and are considered one of the most durable and successful procedures in modern restorative dentistry. Dental implants are also ideal for improving the fit and stability of dentures.
How Do Our Falls Church Dental Implants Work?
Dental implants consist of three components designed to fully restore function and appearance:
- Titanium Post: Using advanced 3D imaging, our dental team precisely places a small titanium post into your jawbone. After a healing period of three to four months, this post serves as a secure, artificial tooth root.
- Abutment: A metal connector is attached to the post, which will support the final restoration.
- Custom Crown: Our dental team designs a crown that blends seamlessly with your natural smile, ensuring function and aesthetics.
Our entire dental implant procedure is completed in one location, streamlining your care to save you both time and money.
Benefits of Dental Implants
For over three decades, dental implants have provided patients with a dependable solution for tooth loss. Their blend of strength, durability, and natural appearance often leads patients to forget they’ve even had a restoration. With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime—far outperforming other tooth replacement methods in terms of long-term success.
Most healthy adults qualify for implants; if you are able to undergo a simple dental procedure like a tooth extraction, you are likely a candidate. Here are just a few of the advantages dental implants provide:
- A permanent solution to tooth loss, unlike bridges and dentures that require replacement over time
- Exceptional strength and stability so you can eat and drink confidently, without limitations or discomfort
- A beautiful, natural-looking smile and a boost in self-confidence
- Preservation of jawbone health, preventing bone loss that can occur with missing teeth
- No inconvenient or unattractive removable parts
