Dental Implants in Lancaster, PA: Permanent Tooth Replacement

Dental implants are the gold standard for replacing missing teeth, offering a permanent solution that looks, feels, and functions like a natural tooth. Unlike bridges or dentures, implants fuse directly to the jawbone (a process called osseointegration), providing unmatched stability.

Benefits of Dental Implants

  • Preserve Bone Health: Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing the bone loss that typically follows tooth loss.
  • Protect Neighboring Teeth: We do not need to grind down adjacent healthy teeth to support an implant.
  • Long-Term Durability: With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime.
  • Aesthetics: Implants are designed to match the color and contour of your natural teeth perfectly.

The Specialist Difference

At Christman Periodontics, we evaluate your total oral health before surgery. Because a healthy foundation is vital, we ensure your gums are free of disease before placement. We also offer advanced preparatory procedures like sinus lifts and bone grafting for patients who previously were told they weren’t candidates for implants. Contact us to schedule an appointment to discuss whether dental implants are a good choice for you.
