The most obvious sign of a missing tooth might be the gap in your smile. But the effects often go deeper, changing how your mouth functions over time. Dental implants do more than just fill a space. They help protect your bone structure, keep your bite aligned, and restore everyday comfort with lasting support.

How Implants Work
A dental implant is a small titanium post that’s placed in your jawbone to take the place of a missing tooth root. Over time, the bone naturally fuses to the implant, creating a stable foundation for a crown, bridge, or denture. The result feels secure, looks natural, and helps protect your long-term oral health.
A Stronger, More Lasting Solution
Implants help prevent the changes in your bite or facial structure that often happen with tooth loss. With the right care, your implant can last for decades and look just as good as the day it was placed.
At Thacker Riverside Dental, we work closely with trusted specialists for surgical placement and craft custom restorations in our office to complete the process. Our goal is simple: to restore what’s missing and give you a result that feels strong, natural, and built to last.
