What Is Dental Implant?
Restoring function back to your smile.
Dental implants have become the preferred standard of care when replacing missing, damaged, or deformed teeth. Dental Care Of Vashon is Vashon’s top choice for implants. We utilize the latest in guided implant technology by using a Cone Beam CT scanner.
Implants are titanium posts that screw into your jawbone to replace the root of your missing tooth. Implants can be used in the following ways:
- Replacement of one or more missing teeth
- Support of a bridge to replace multiple teeth
- Support of a non-removable full or partial denture

BENEFITS OF IMPLANTS DENTISTRY
Implants vs Bridges – Who Wins?
You always have options for different kinds of treatment. We will, of course, present you with the most ideal option, but we will do our best to find other more economical ways to help you achieve your goals. Here is how implants compare with dental bridges:
Bridges
- A bridge is difficult to keep clean
- A bridge requires aggressive tooth reduction of healthy teeth that are supporting the bridge
- An implant saves the adjacent teeth
Implants
- Implants preserve the bone level
- Implants allow you to floss and clean the area just like a natural tooth
- Implants have a success rate of 98%
