What are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are tooth replacement solutions designed to mimic the natural structure of a tooth, offering a permanent and durable replacement. A dental implant consists of three essential components:
Implant Root
The implant root is surgically placed into the jawbone, where it functions as a stable and secure anchor. Over time, the implant root fuses with the jawbone through a process known as osseointegration, providing a strong foundation for the replacement tooth.
The Abutment
The abutment is a connector piece that attaches to the implant root. It extends above the gumline and provides a secure attachment point for the crown.
Custom Crown
The crown is the visible part of the dental implant, resembling a natural tooth in both appearance and function. Crowns are crafted to match the color, shape, and size of your existing teeth, ensuring a seamless and aesthetically pleasing smile.

What Conditions Do Dental Implants Fix/Treat?
Dental implants are an effective solution for addressing various dental issues and conditions. We understand that every patient's situation is unique, and dental implants offer tailored solutions to restore both oral health and confidence. Here are some common dental issues and conditions that dental implants can successfully fix and treat:
Missing Teeth
Whether you've lost a single tooth due to injury or have multiple gaps in your smile, implants offer a stable and permanent solution.
Tooth Decay
In cases in which tooth decay has damaged a tooth beyond repair, extraction may be necessary. Dental implants can replace lost tooth without affecting adjacent healthy teeth.
Failed Restorations
If you have previously received dental bridges or dentures that no longer provide the desired function or comfort, dental implants can be used to secure and stabilize these restorations, improving their performance.
Bone Loss
Tooth loss can lead to bone loss in the jaw, which can affect the overall structure of your face and smile. Dental implants promote bone preservation and stimulate natural bone growth.
Enjoy A Permanent Smile Transformation With One Versatile And Strong Solution
Single Implants
Even a single missing tooth can impact the aesthetics of your smile, as well as lead to functional issues that affect your mouth and jaw. Adjacent teeth may shift and occupy the empty space, resulting in difficulty chewing and an uncomfortable bite.
A single dental implant from the Southcoast Dental team will restore your smile function and beauty, while eliminating issues associated with traditional dental bridges. Once the implant fuses with your underlying bone and is restored with a zirconia crown, you may forget it isn't a real tooth after a brief adjustment period!
Implant-Supported Dentures
While traditional dentures rest on top of your gums and stay in place with a combination of suction and adhesive, implant-supported dentures offer greater stability and security. With just a few dental implants connected to a full-arch denture, you'll experience far better functionality.
Because a few missing tooth roots are replaced with implants, this prevents progressive bone loss and slippage, even with a removable overdenture. During your consultation, Dr. James Kiehl will discuss the details and your preferences to determine whether a removable or fixed denture best meets your clinical and lifestyle needs.
Dental Bridges
Implant-retained bridges consist of two or more implants that are surgically placed into your jawbone to support a dental bridge. This type of implant restoration is used to replace multiple missing teeth in a row, whereas a conventional dental bridge is only strong enough to replace a single missing tooth.
After the implants integrate with your jawbone, this type of bridge offers greater stability and longevity, while also reducing the risk of gum recession. The bridge is custom-made to match the shape, size, and color of your surrounding teeth, while eliminating the need for modification of healthy adjacent teeth and preserving the integrity of your jawbone.
Full-Mouth Dental Implants
If you have numerous missing or failing teeth, full-mouth dental implants in Wareham, MA offer a transformative restorative solution. At Southcoast Dental, Dr. Kiehl and our team utilize advanced technology and a patient-focused approach to restore your smile functionality and confidence.
With the all-on-four to six protocol, a strategic number of dental implants are surgically placed in your jawbone to support a complete set of prosthetic teeth. Unlike traditional dentures, full-mouth dental implants offer superior stability and functionality because they're fixed and prevent bone loss.
How Long Do Dental Implants Last?
When properly cared for, dental implants can last a lifetime, making them a wise investment in your oral health and well-being. Several factors, including your oral hygiene practices and overall health, influence the lifespan of dental implants.
We emphasize the importance of regular check-ups and maintenance to protect your 10-year warranty and ensure the longevity of your dental implants. Our experienced team offers comprehensive guidance on oral care routines and provides valuable tips for maximizing the lifespan of your implants.
