Dental Implants in Yankton, SD

Dental implants are long-term tooth replacement options that restore your ability to eat, laugh, and smile with confidence. A dental implant is made of an implant post, an abutment, and a crown. Together, these parts replicate the look and function of a natural tooth. Your oral surgeon will insert a dental implant into the jaw bone. This fusion creates stability for the implant and helps prevent jaw bone loss, because the implant stimulates the bone while chewing. Dental implants are the only tooth replacement option that prevents bone loss while restoring the appearance and function of your teeth. They require no special care beyond regular brushing and flossing. Whether you have a single missing or failing tooth or need to restore many teeth, dental implants may be the right solution for you. 

Wisdom Teeth Removal in Yankton, SD

Wisdom teeth, or third molars, are the last teeth to develop and usually make an appearance during the late teens or early twenties. The average mouth does not have room for an extra set of molars, which is why many dental professionals recommend having wisdom teeth extracted. Wisdom teeth will push against adjacent molars to try and make room, which can cause damage and push the rest of your teeth out of alignment. Impacted wisdom teeth, or those stuck beneath the gums, will not erupt into the dental arch and must be surgically removed. By having wisdom teeth extracted, you can prevent these and other oral health issues from arising. Visit our oral surgery team in Yankton, SD, if you or your child have wisdom teeth and would like an evaluation.

Denture Replacement With Full-Arch Restoration in Yankton, SD

Dentures are a quick way to restore the appearance of missing teeth, but they do not fully restore oral function. Many patients who wear dentures experience oral sores, slipping, and embarrassment when having to remove their teeth. Dentures rest on the bony ridge in the mouth and do not stimulate the jaw bone, which can lead to jaw bone deterioration and facial sagging. You can eliminate the need for removable dentures with full-arch restoration. For this procedure, we will use dental implants to support a fixed prosthesis in one or both arches. Your new teeth will remain in your mouth and do not require any special products or care—simply brush and floss regularly. If you wear dentures, contact us to learn about denture replacement and see if you qualify for life-changing full-arch restoration.
