One patient summed it up best when she said, <strong>\u201cMissing teeth rob you of everything: eating like you used to, smiling and feeling good about it, some of my words even sound different.\u201d<\/strong> If this sounds familiar, it\u2019s time to fix your missing teeth &#8212; and your Milwaukee cosmetic dentist wants you to know that you\u2019ve got an excellent option in dental implants.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Franzen specializes in restorative and implant dentistry, combining excellent care with continuing education and the latest in technology to give you the very best smile. He firmly believes that dental implants are the best solution for most cases of missing teeth &#8212; read on to learn more about the devices, how they work and if they\u2019re a good choice for your unique mouth.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<h3>What Are Dental Implants?<\/h3>\n<p>Made of sturdy titanium, dental implants are tiny posts that are surgically placed into your gum. They\u2019re the only replacement option that\u2019s put directly into your jaw &#8212; that\u2019s because dental implants replace more than just the tooth. They replace its root, too. That\u2019s key to keeping the jaw healthy and preventing further tooth loss down the line.<\/p>\n<p>Once the dental implants have been placed, they\u2019re allowed a healing period during which the jaw bone will grow around them, making the implants super sturdy. This ossification stage usually takes from two to six months, but in some special cases Dr. Franzen can place the prosthesis in the very same day. If that\u2019s not possible, your new replacement teeth will be securely placed on top of the dental implants once your jaw has fully recovered. Either way, the result is a sturdy, beautiful smile you won\u2019t want to hide ever again.<\/p>\n<h3>Dr. Franzen Uses Advanced Technology<\/h3>\n<p>As someone fully committed to using the best and the latest in technology, Dr. Franzen uses computer-guided implant placement from Astra Tech. This system allows him to create a three-dimensional model that pinpoints the best placement for each implant. With the precision afforded by Astra Tech, Dr. Franzen places exceptional single, partial and full-mouth implant restorations.<\/p>\n<h3>Are You a Good Candidate?<\/h3>\n<p>In order for dental implant placement to be successful, you will need adequate existing jaw bone. In some cases, tooth loss has resulted in severe deterioration of the jaw, making it difficult for the implants to attach securely. You\u2019ll also need to have good oral health overall &#8212; the effects of gum disease, for example, can make implant placement difficult.<\/p>\n<p>To ensure you\u2019re a good candidate for dental implants, we\u2019ll first perform a thorough oral examination and talk to you about your health history. During this consultation, it\u2019s important for you to fully communicate any previous or existing conditions you have. Once we confirm you\u2019re a good candidate for dental implants, we can begin creating your treatment plan immediately.<\/p>\n<h3>Call Us Today<\/h3>\n<p>If you\u2019re missing teeth and are waiting for a sturdy, successful and affordable solution, don\u2019t wait to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.milwaukeedentalimplants.com\/contact-us.html\">schedule your appointment with Dr. Franzen<\/a>.
