Replace multiple teeth
Tooth loss can occur for any number of reasons and sometimes more than one area is affected. In these situations, dental implants may be used, in combination with your natural teeth, to restore your smile and chewing function.
In some cases your natural teeth are not suitable partners for your new dental implants. In these instances a full arch approach may be right for you.
Dr. Dempsey will discuss with you your individual goals and work with you to determine which treatment option is best suited for your needs.
