Traditional vs. Implant-Supported Restorations

Although traditional and dental implant restorations may seem similar, distinct differences separate the two. To help you make confident and informed oral health decisions, our experienced dental team is here to break down what each type of restorative dentistry entails. Implant-supported restorations include any restoration that requires dental implants for placement. Unlike traditional restorations, an implant-supported crown, bridge, or denture can fully replace your teeth from root to crown.

Our Pekin dental implant restorations can be excellent whether you're missing a single tooth or multiple teeth. Implant restorations offer superb functionality and durability as you can care for them like your natural teeth, including brushing and flossing. They also offer various benefits that support your overall oral health, like preventing bone loss and stimulating your gums.

Our Restorative Dentistry Options

Our dentist will conduct a comprehensive oral exam when you visit our practice for the first time. Using x-ray technology, we'll look at the condition of your smile, including your remaining teeth, gums, and jawbone. If you're an ideal candidate for dental implant restorations, our dentist will determine which restorative options meet your needs. For example, if most of your teeth are missing and your remaining natural teeth are severely damaged or decayed, our dentist may recommend moving forward with implant-supported dentures.

We work with a trusted local specialist for the placement of your implant posts. Our implant-supported restoration options include, but are not limited to:

  • Crowns: This restorative option allows you to replace a single tooth down to the root. Implant-supported crowns are one of the most flexible forms of restoration as multiple can be placed throughout your smile to fill in gaps and create a more uniform appearance. We can place implant-supported crowns alongside other restorations, like bridges, depending on your needs.
  • Bridges: Implant-supported bridges can replace three or more missing teeth in a row. Typically, they're secured in place by two dental implants at each end. One of the most significant benefits of dental implant bridges is there's less risk for bone loss as the implants stimulate jawbone health.
  • Dentures: If you like the appearance of traditional dentures but are interested in a more permanent tooth replacement solution, implant-supported dentures may be the best option for you. Implant dentures replace groups of missing teeth up to entire arches of teeth and are supported by strategically placed posts in your jaw. Maintaining them is also less complicated than traditional dentures because at-home care is similar to caring for your natural teeth.

Dental Implant Restorations FAQs

Selecting an implant-supported restoration can be a major decision in your life. As such, it's normal to have questions about our restorations and the process of placing them. Our friendly and communicative dental team is here to provide the answers you need to make confident decisions about your smile. Some of the most frequently asked questions about our Pekin restorative implant dentistry services include:

Do you provide pretreatment options?

Yes. Our office offers various pretreatment options, including non-surgical gum treatments and routine extractions, to help prepare your smile for dental implant restorations.

No, implant restorations are permanent and aren't meant to be removed. However, our dentist can remove it if there's ever a need to either repair or replace your restoration.

It's normal to feel some discomfort immediately after the placement of your restoration. However, you can rest assured that any discomfort will go away in the days following placement.
