Dr. Lori Lahti at Dentistry on the Bay in Parry Sound encourages you to consider dental implants for a missing tooth or teeth. Visit the dental office at 61 Bowes Street to discuss effective options with Dr. Lahti’s professional team. Missing teeth can be damaging to your self-esteem, career and social life. Having spaces between teeth is also problematic for your existing teeth, as the lack of support will affect surrounding teeth. Chat with a dentist to explore your options. A healthy, natural-looking smile will make you look and feel great.
A missing tooth can be the result of a sports injury or accident at any stage in life. While many associate missing teeth with the elderly, tooth loss is often caused by a mishap. Hockey, rugby, skiing, baseball, slips and falls, and car accidents can all damage your teeth. The good news is that help is available. You don’t have to suffer with the embarrassment of missing teeth.
If you or a senior in your life is missing one or more teeth, it is important to know that dentists can help. The loss of a single tooth can quickly lead to the loss of surrounding teeth if nothing is done to offer support and protection to the area. Simply put, teeth need each other. Food taken in large bites can also put pressure on the remaining teeth, which will eventually weaken. Wide gaps mean that food isn’t chewed properly. Implants offer a viable solution to these problems. Supported teeth function correctly, and you’ll be back to eating a regular diet in a flash.
Dental implants are custom made to fit your mouth. They are matched with the appropriate size and colour to look natural. Another benefit is that they are affixed permanently in place, so you never have to worry about them moving or falling out. Implants may be covered by insurance plans, and payment plans are also available. Why not enjoy a beautiful smile?
Dr. Lori Lahti welcomes new patients of all ages. In addition to implants, their office offers routine cleanings, Invisalign®, as well as tooth whitening. Visit them to discuss how healthy, functional and beautiful teeth can change your life.
Call Dr. Lahti at 705-746-2772 for an appointment, or email info@dentistryonthebay.ca. The office is open Monday to Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
