Dental Implants
An incomplete smile can diminish your appearance and cause self-esteem to plummet. Missing teeth are a serious health concern, too. Dr. Fossum places and restores dental implants to permanently revitalize compromised smiles and promote long-lasting oral health. He’s a highly skilled restorative dentist who has undergone intensive training in implant dentistry and can perform all facets of your restoration at our Temple dental office.
A dental implant contains a man-made tooth root topped with a custom crown or other prosthetic. Many patients prefer implants to dentures, partials, and bridges because of their realistic look and feel. If you’re an implant dentistry candidate, Dr. Fossum will insert tiny titanium posts into your jawbone, one for each replacement tooth or a few to secure a prosthetic. Your jawbone will fuse with the posts, and Dr. Fossum will attach your replacement teeth to restore dental health and beauty. He’ll complete the entire implant procedure in our Temple office, which may eliminate the need to see a specialist.
