The Dental Implant Procedure in Rockford, IL

If you have one or more missing teeth, you may benefit from permanent tooth replacement with dental implants. Dr. James Vecchio performs dental implant placement and restoration services at our practice. This procedure involves placing the titanium base of the implant into the jaw, allowing it to permanently fuse with surrounding bone tissue. An abutment is attached to the implant, and supports a custom crown to create a fully functional, natural-looking tooth.

Best Candidates for Individual Dental Implants

You may be a good candidate for a dental implant procedure in Rockford, IL if you have one or more missing teeth in the upper or lower jaw. As long as your periodontal tissues are in good health and you have sufficient bone available to support the implants, you can enjoy numerous benefits from this permanent tooth replacement procedure.

Other Options for Missing Teeth

In addition to placing individual dental implants, Dr. Vecchio offers implant supported dentures and the All-on-4® implant technique. These are other options for replacing a full arch of teeth permanently, while reducing the risk of further or future bone loss. Dr. Vecchio will customize a treatment plan that may include tooth replacement options, gum or bone grafting, and cosmetic dentistry procedures to enhance your smile.
