There are many options available to patients in the West Palm Beach area who are considering repairing their smiles after the extraction or loss of a natural tooth. When individuals are ready to address these spaces, they may speak to Dr.Elizabeth Keith to learn about options including bridges, dentures, and dental implants. While all options are effective, there is no “one size fits all” solution for every patient who steps into our office. This is why we work with patients on a case-by-case basis to help determine which option is best.

For some patients who are missing a single tooth, dental implants may be a viable option. One of the choices for replacing missing teeth, it can be a permanent option highly desired by many because of the longevity and permanency of the restoration. Dr.Elizabeth Keith gives patients the option,if possible,to have teeth extracted and replaced with dental implants rather than undergo procedures such as root canal therapy to save a tooth.

Dental implants at our practice are fabricated from zirconium or titanium. These materials are biocompatible with the body and are just as strong and stable.

Unfortunately, many patients are concerned about the cost of dental implants. Though they are often more costly upfront than other restorations, they can last a lifetime, which means they hold their value better.

Dental implants can be a wonderful investment in the smile, and Pure Dental Care can help patients determine if they are right for these restorations.
