At River Crossing Family Dental in Riverton, UT, we offer dental implants as a powerful restorative treatment option for patients with missing teeth. Whether you have lost a single tooth or several, dental implants provide a durable, natural-looking solution that can transform both your smile and your quality of life. Call today to schedule your free consultation.
Dental implants are small titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth. Once the implant fuses with the bone (osseointegration), it creates a sturdy foundation for a custom restoration — crown, bridge, or denture. Unlike other options, implants restore the entire structure of the tooth from root to crown. With proper care, implants can last a lifetime.
A single implant has three components, with a 3D digital scan guiding precise placement. The post is designed to last a lifetime; the crown may need replacing every 10–15 years due to normal wear.
For several consecutive missing teeth, an implant-supported bridge anchors directly to implants rather than relying on adjacent healthy teeth. Implants are placed and healed, then a custom bridge is bonded to them. The advantages: it preserves neighboring teeth and provides a more stable, longer-lasting solution.
Our team uses advanced technology, including 3D imaging and guided implant placement, for precision and patient comfort — compassionate, expert care from consultation to final restoration.
Good candidates typically have one or more missing teeth, healthy gums and sufficient jawbone density, good overall health, and a commitment to good oral hygiene. Even with some bone loss, procedures like bone grafting can prepare your mouth for successful placement.
