Dental Implants

What is a dental implant?

A dental implant is a natural-looking and functioning artificial tooth that is used to replace a missing tooth. Dental implants are comprised of three parts: a titanium post that replaces the root, a crown that replaces the missing tooth, and an abutment that connects the two parts.

Replacing Your Teeth

If you’re missing multiple teeth, each missing tooth could be replaced with a dental implant. However, if you have quite a few teeth missing, the cost can add up. In this case, an alternative is to use a dental bridge that uses implants to support one or more of the porcelain “teeth.” A dental bridge supported by implants is a fixed (non-removable) restoration and acts and feels very much like natural teeth.

If you need to replace all your teeth, our doctors will evaluate your individual case and work with you to choose the best option for replacing your teeth, keeping your budget in mind. Options can include implant-supported removable dentures, an implant-supported fixed denture, or a series of implant-supported dental bridges.

"The practice and everyone that works there are extremely professional, caring people who strive to do their best and to be the best. Dr. Parker’s strive for perfection in his work means a lot to me. He is very respectful of his patients and staff, which reflects well on the success of the practice, I have recommended Drs. Parker and Pennington many times, with full confidence, and will continue to do so."

“I’ve had multiple fillings, crowns, polishes and various other procedures, and I can honestly say that I’ve felt more from ice cream headaches than anything Dr. Pennington has done for me. The man is an artist, and the only dentist I’ve had who can administer a needle without me noticing it happening. The experience I’ve had with Dr. Pennington and his entire staff has been uniformly positive from the first day. I show my teeth now when I smile, and I can honestly say that I look forward to going and seeing them twice a year.”

“I can not say enough great things and Parker & Pennington. My husband and I have used them for 3+ years now and we will never go anywhere else. From the front office staff to the back staff, everyone is personable and polite. We could never thank Doctors Parker and Pennington enough!”

Whitney

“Both my husband and I have been patients of Drs. Parker and Pennington for quite a while now, and have been extremely satisfied with the service and care we have received from their practice. We’ve had crowns, fillings, implants, overlays, cleanings, x-rays, and probably some other procedures done that I can’t recall, and all work was excellent, and as painless as possible.”
