We’re only given one set of adult teeth to take care of in this life, and that means that when you lose one or more of them, it can be tough. You simply don’t have the ability to regrow teeth, so at that point, it’s time to talk to a prosthodontist about your next steps. They can help you to understand what options are out there, what’s available to you, and also what is achievable with your current smile.
So, if you are tired of your dentures, then talk to Dr. Stuart Dexter, D.D.S. about your next steps. We offer dental implant placement in order to help people on the Kansas side of Kansas City to find their way to a stronger, safer smile; our office has also seen what dental implants can do. Implant solutions can be effective in replacing a single tooth, multiple ones together, or even a full arch through the innovative All-On-X approach. Make an appointment with our team, and let’s make a plan for your smile!

Dental Implants Work Through Osseointegration
Titanium interacts with the human body in a very special way. Rather than viewing this metal as a foreign object, things placed within the body are allowed to remain. That offers real opportunities when it comes to oral health.
Dental implants work through the use of titanium. As the bone tissue heals around the titanium post, it creates a sturdy foundation for a prosthetic tooth. This same technology is being used in the placement of prosthetic limbs, even, so you know it brings real stability. Once a patient has healed around the implant post, a new pontic can be attached.
Replace Your Failing Dentures With All-On-X
Dental implant technology is not only useful in replacing single teeth. It’s also effective in the placement of a full arch solution, and that’s called All-On-X. This innovative approach to prosthodontic renewal uses a set number of implant posts to provide a foundation for a full set of prosthetic teeth.
All-On-X is helping many Americans to move away from traditional dentures. With All-On-X, patients can transition to a more stable solution that uses biocompatible implant posts as the base. It’s important to remember that this approach is not for everyone, so see about your options.
