Dental Implants in Lakewood, CA

Replace your missing teeth with dental implants!

A dental implant is a metal post that is placed into the jawbone where the tooth is missing. As time goes on, the dental implant will fuse with your jaw bone, which creates a firm, stable foundation which will later anchor a realistic-looking crown. The entire tooth can be reconstructed with a dental implant procedure. Just ask Dr. Marjorie Handshuh about the possibility of this technique to restore your smile.

Patients who have had a dental implant placed and fully restored can enjoy a normal diet and eat, chew, and smile with confidence. After experiencing dental implant restoration, nobody will be the wiser about your dental renovations.

Before you undergo dental implant restoration, please note that in the future, a ceramic crown will not respond to teeth whitening as normal enamel does. For those patients who had planned on achieving a brighter smile with this cosmetic dentistry procedure, consider having your teeth whitened prior to this step so that we can match your more radiant shade to the crown. Feel free to ask Dr. Handshuh about these procedures. She’s happy to help you obtain your dream look!
