Life is too short to suffer with even one missing tooth. And because there are so many potential benefits associated with implants, you shouldn't trust your care to just any provider. Reach out to our Nashville, TN, practice today to take the first step toward the healthy, beautiful smile you deserve.
A Closer Look at Dental Implants
Implants are a milestone in dentistry that has helped millions to experience a new lease on life. Because dental implants connect your replacement teeth directly to your jaw, they can allow you to:
- Eat any foods you like - including barbecue and raw vegetables - without having to worry about your denture slipping.
- Speak clearly.
- Feel confident knowing that your custom restorations and dental implants are working together to make your smile look natural and attractive.
It's a common misconception that each missing tooth will require an implant. Although a single missing tooth is replaced with one crown and one dental implant, a bridge usually only requires two implants, and a full denture is usually supported by six to eight implants.

View on GoogleAn Invaluable Hidden Benefit of Dental Implants
Most people are well aware of the stability that dental implants provide to crowns, bridges, and dentures. But many don't realize that they also stop your jaw from changing shape in ways that can compromise your oral health and make you look aged beyond your years.
Tooth roots provide stimulation to the bone tissue in the jaw. When this stimulation is gone, it signals to the body to place a lower priority on maintaining the bone tissue in that area. Over time, this causes the jaw to atrophy (shrink). This is what causes the stereotypical image of a puckered mouth and recessed chin that has long been associated with advanced age. Meanwhile, this can cause your remaining natural teeth to shift out of alignment.
Implants are the one and only restorative dentistry solution that can provide the stimulation your jaw needs in order to retain bone tissue and maintain your features. This is just one of several reasons why dental implants are a wise investment that can provide priceless benefits for the rest of your life.
Are Implants Right for Me? Primary Candidacy Factors
Virtually anyone who has suffered tooth loss could benefit from a solution that replaces both the root and the crown of those teeth, but dental implants aren't right for everyone. In order to qualify, you should have:
Sufficient Jawbone Tissue
Dental implants need a certain amount of bone tissue for support. If you have been missing teeth for a long time, you have probably suffered some jaw atrophy. But don't worry - a simple bone grafting procedure can restore your jaw and your candidacy for dental implants.
Good Oral Health
Dental implants require a healthy foundation. If you have active gum disease, or if any remaining natural teeth are decayed, this can lead to implant failure. We can resolve these issues prior to implant surgery to ensure the best possible outcome.
Good Overall Health
Certain health conditions raise the risks of dental implant placement. If you are diabetic, for example, you must have the condition under control. Otherwise, your risk of implant failure is too high to recommend dental implant placement surgery.
A Tobacco-Free Lifestyle
The ability of your bone tissue to heal after implant placement surgery is the key to dental implant success. Nicotine compromises the amount of oxygen in your bloodstream, which slows your body's healing response. As a result, smokers and other tobacco users face a greater risk of dental implant failure. We recommend breaking the habit permanently at least a few months prior to surgery.

Because every dental patient has unique needs, dental implant treatment timelines can differ from one case to the next. Generally speaking, you can expect that your treatment timeline will involve at least two minor surgeries with about three to six months of healing time between them:

Our Sedation Options
Our Nashville practice understands that dental treatment of any kind can make many adults feel anxious, and that others simply want time to pass quickly and comfortably during a lengthy dental procedure. That's why we offer two types of sedation upon request:
IV Sedation
Intravenous (IV) sedation is administered directly to your bloodstream. This form of sedation can be instantly adjusted to provide precisely the level of sedation you require. You won't be completely unconscious, but you will be deeply relaxed and you won't likely have any memory of treatment after the effects wear off.
Oral Conscious Sedation
Oral conscious sedation involves taking prescribed pills before arriving at our office. Like IV sedation, this option will place you in a deeply relaxed state of near-sleep, and you probably won't remember much of anything about your procedure afterward. During your initial consultation, we can help you determine which type of sedation is best for your needs.
