Smile Again With Largo Dental Implants

Dental implants are durable and functional solutions for missing teeth. Dental implants include the tooth as well as tooth root. These implants can replace one or several missing teeth. This technology is a combination of oral, restorative, and cosmetic dentistry and is available in Largo, FL at Dr. Panzarella’s dental office.

Teeth can become dislodged and lost for many reasons including tooth decay, gum disease, direct trauma to the mouth or tooth, and congenital defects. A faulty root canal and even excessive wear and tear on the teeth can result in tooth loss. Tooth loss can lead to issues involving the ability to eat and speak. Tooth loss can also wreak havoc on a person’s self esteem.

Luckily, dental implants are a tried and true solution for tooth loss and Dr. Panzarella is a top implant dentist in Largo, FL. However, not all dental implant procedures are the same. At your first appointment, your implant dentist will thoroughly examine your mouth to determine what your needs are. For some, an implant can be placed that same day. Others may require a series of appointments. This is a necessary and delicate procedure and Largo residents can be confident that their dental implant needs can be met through Dr. Panzarella.

Dental implants can also serve as a foundation for dentures. For some people, the existing teeth are not strong enough to hold dentures. This can lead to dentures that constantly slip or fall off. Dental implants are a great solution for this issue, particularly for people who may fare better with dentures instead of having many teeth replaced with implants.
Dental implants are made to match your teeth. Not only can these implants disguise any gaps you may have due to missing teeth, but they will be indistinguishable from your natural teeth. Because dental implants are rooted directly into the bone, these teeth are fully functional just like normal teeth, allowing you to chew and speak as you would with your natural teeth.

Most patients have reported little to no discomfort during and after the implant procedure. An implant dentist is specifically trained to tailor the entire procedure to give you the best results with the least discomfort. A local anesthetic is used for the procedure and usually over-the-counter medications are sufficient at easing any pain that occurs after the procedure.

Be confident that Largo, FL is home to an implant dentist that can help you with your tooth-loss issues. Contact Dr. Panzarella’s office today to schedule your consultation.
