A missing tooth or teeth cause problems in many aspects of life. Chewing is difficult, so diet suffers. Speaking clearly can be a problem, as well. Most people with incomplete smiles don't smile often, and self-confidence can plummet. In regards to health, missing teeth promote jawbone deterioration and allow remaining teeth to shift out of place, which can lead to bite problems, TMJ dysfunction, and teeth grinding. If you don't replace missing teeth, lifestyle and health can begin a downward spiral.
Dr. Perkins wants to help you regain your quality of life, good health, and self-confidence. Dental implants are the replacement teeth option that most accurately mimics natural teeth. You see, and implant consists of a small post imbedded in the jaw and a lifelike false tooth permanently attached to the post. Dr. Perkins works with a specialist, overseeing his patients' entire dental implant procedure, from qualification to surgery to placement of the false tooth.
Implant patients enjoy renewed confidence and lifestyle because they can eat whatever they like, speak clearly, and smile with pride. In addition, dental implants deter jawbone deterioration. You can care for your dental implants as you would your natural teeth, with daily brushing and flossing.
Call Dr. Perkins today for your dental implant consultation. Implants can also anchor bridgework, partials, and dentures for a solid, dependable smile. Patients come from across California to visit our Malibu or Simi Valley office for dental implants. Let us improve your smile and your life!
