Missing teeth can affect more than just your appearance—they can impact your ability to eat, speak, and maintain oral health. At Norwood Dentistry, we specialize in advanced dental implants, offering long-lasting, natural-looking solutions for missing teeth. Whether you need a single implant, multiple tooth implants, or full-mouth restoration, our expert team ensures personalized care using the latest dental implant technology.
If you're considering dental implants, here's why Norwood Dentistry is your best choice for high-quality, customized implant solutions.
A dental implant is a titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone, serving as an artificial tooth root. Once healed, it supports a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture, fully restoring the function and aesthetics of your smile. Unlike traditional dentures, implants provide permanent, secure, and natural-feeling tooth replacement.
At Norwood Dentistry, we provide customized implant solutions based on your needs:
Our clinic stays at the forefront of dental implant technology, ensuring safe, precise, and effective implant placement. We utilize:
Dental implants at Norwood Dentistry are designed to look, feel, and function like natural teeth. Our custom-crafted crowns and bridges match your tooth color and shape for a seamless, beautiful smile.
Unlike dentures, dental implants prevent bone loss by stimulating the jawbone. This maintains facial structure, preventing the "sunken" look associated with missing teeth.
Jawbone loss starts within six months after tooth loss. Implants are the only solution that actively preserves bone density!
We offer affordable dental implants with flexible payment options. While the initial cost of implants is higher than dentures or bridges, they are a permanent, one-time investment that saves money in the long run.
Our care doesn’t stop after your procedure! We provide:

Most adults with healthy gums and sufficient jawbone density qualify for implants. If you have gum disease or bone loss, procedures like bone grafting may be required before implantation.

The full process can take 3–6 months, including:
