Do dental implants replace all of my teeth?

The Austin American-Statesman recently ran this Q&A about dental implants with an Austin dentist.

Q: Do dental implants replace all of my teeth?

A: It depends on your oral condition. Dental implants can be used to replace a single, multiple, or all of the teeth in the mouth. For individuals missing a single tooth, a dental implant is a great solution to fix the problem before it gets worse.

For more complex conditions, the addition of more implants can be used to restore a full set of teeth.

Not only do dental implants look, feel and function like natural teeth, they are also permanent and can help to restore your oral health so you can get back to doing what you enjoy without worrying about your teeth.

Dr. Jerame Hafen of Olympia Hills Family Dental has extensive training in dental implants. If you live in the Universal City, Schertz, Cibolo areas of San Antonio, make an appointment today!
