Dental Implants To Replace Missing Teeth

For Single Teeth, Dentures, and Everything in Between

If you have missing or failing teeth, there are many replacement options available. Bridges, crowns, dentures, and partials are all viable options. Still, nothing comes close to the strength and durability of dental implants to support the restoration.

Implants are extremely strong. They are anchored firmly into the jaw bone, just like the roots of your natural teeth. In this way, implants provide us dentists a sturdy foundation to mount any manner of tooth replacement. A single implant can support a single missing tooth or even several surrounding teeth. Additionally, dental implants are perfect for securing dentures, the traditional replacement option for the entire arch of teeth.

For denture wearers, implants are a real game-changer. Especially for those whose dentures slip or are just plain painful, getting dental implants provides the ultimate comfort and stability. There’s no more avoiding difficult-to-eat foods or worrying about denture paste or bonding strips. The removable dentures simply fit into place by attaching to the ultra-strong titanium implants.

During an implant consultation, we can discuss if they are right for you and any other questions you might have. We may also require additional X-rays to evaluate bone density and determined precise implant placement.

As well as the functional benefits, getting new dental implants can provide a complete rejuvenation to your appearance. The only thing you’ll wonder is why you waited so long!

About the Author: Westlake Family Dental

Dr. Angela Burns moved to Austin 10 years ago and instantly fell in love with our beautiful city. Dr. Burns is originally from the Texarkana area. She attended Texas A&M for her undergraduate degree and The University of Tennessee Health Science Center for her degree in dental surgery (DDS). Dr. Burns is committed to providing her patients with gentle, technologically advanced dental treatment. She attends an average of 60 hours of continuing education every year. She is a member of the American Dental Association, the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, the Texas Dental Association, and the Capital Area Dental Society. Dr. Burns and her husband, Gary, have an 11-year-old daughter, Sydney, who is a proud 6th grader at Hill Country Middle School. She is also very involved in the Eanes PTO, her church, and loves raising her family in the Westlake community. “Growing up, I was drawn to mediating and helping others feel more included and less anxious. I was a camp counselor, student government officer and being the oldest of five, I was the family mediator. I found that I had a calling to help alleviate stressful situations for others and realized that being a good listener was something that was key to this. These skills really helped guide me into becoming a dentist that has based my practice on relationships, empathy and a sense of comfort. I knew that I wanted to provide an atmosphere that felt like home when others walked in. Our practice is small, personal and state of the art and we hope you feel like you’re hanging out with friends when you are here!” When she is not practicing dentistry, Dr. Burns enjoys traveling, hiking the greenbelt, enjoying Austin’s music scene, and eating Amy’s Ice Cream.
