Dental Implants

Dental implants by Gig Harbor dentist, Dr. Karla Bloomquist, are among the best way to effectively replace missing teeth with both ideal function and eye-pleasing results. When placed with skilled technique and an artistic eye, dental implants have become the gold standard in tooth replacement dentistry. No other option restores both the functionality and beauty of a smile quite like dental implants.

Dental implants are designed to mimic the root form of the lost tooth its replacing. The implant “root” is composed of titanium and is surgically placed directly into the jawbone. Implants are an ideal tooth replacement as they offer a resilient environment for your new crown, the two adjacent teeth can remain unrestored and implants continue to support healthy un-resorbed jawbone.

Once your implant is secure, Dr. Bloomquist will place an abutment (a connecting piece) and a crown, which will become your new “tooth”. The end result is a brand new replacement to your smile that looks, feels and functions just as a natural tooth.

“You can have a brand new smile that looks and feels just as naturally beautiful as the one you were born with.”

Implants can be placed as a solution for other dental predicaments. They can be used to anchor ill-fitting dentures-A wonderful option for those patients who have struggled with loose dentures and resorbed jawbones for many years. Think about being able to eat, speak, smile and care for your teeth without the worry!

The sky is the limit with dental implants. Patient desires and quality of life expectations are the only thing dictating what treatment can be accomplished by using dental implants as an option for you.

With special placement and care, dental implants offer a life-changing solution meant to last forever. Not all dentists have the ability to provide patients with both the surgical placement and the restoration of dental implants. Gig Harbor dentist, Dr. Karla Bloomquist, does both!
