After all, not only is your oral health compromised (an increased risk of periodontal disease and additional tooth loss are common consequences), but your self-image suffers a blow too, making it difficult to even leave your house, much less interact with people in professional and social settings for fear of embarrassment. While traditional replacement solutions, such as dentures and bridges, are often available, many patients find themselves unsatisfied by their bulky, unnatural nature. While <a href=\"https:\/\/www.betteryoursmile.com\/meet-the-dentists.html\">Drs. D\u2019Amico and Mauck<\/a> can\u2019t rewind the clock and bring your lost teeth back, they do offer the next best thing at their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.betteryoursmile.com\/contact-us.html\">Aurora<\/a> office: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.betteryoursmile.com\/dental-implants.html\">dental implants<\/a>. With the help of <b>dental implants<\/b>, our team can give you back the beautiful, seamless smile you\u2019ve been dreaming of.\r\n\r\n<b>What are dental implants?<\/b>\r\n\r\n<b>Dental implants<\/b> are small, titanium screws that fuse successfully with your jawbone tissue, effectively replicating the entire structure of your lost tooth. The process is simple \u2013 first, <b>Dr. D\u2019Amico and Dr. Mauck<\/b> will refer you to a trusted oral surgeon; they will handle the placement of these screws. Then, once an appropriate amount of time has passed for you to heal, you\u2019ll return to our <b>Aurora<\/b> office where we\u2019ll place your brand-new, customized restorations atop them, completing the process.\r\n\r\n<b>How are dental implants better than other tooth replacement treatments? <\/b>\r\n\r\n<b>Dental implants<\/b> are so effective because they replace the root of your tooth, not just the crown. While dentures and bridges often look nice, the lack of tooth roots will cause your jawbone to deteriorate over time, resulting in a hunched appearance for your face. <b>Dental implants<\/b> are the only restorative dentistry solution that provides a solution to this problem! Additionally, <b>dental implants<\/b> are much more sturdy, lifelike, and long-lasting than their tooth replacement counterparts.\r\n\r\nDon\u2019t settle for an incomplete smile \u2013 instead, bolster your oral health with help from <b>D\u2019Amico and Mauck, DDS<\/b>! <a href=\"https:\/\/www.betteryoursmile.com\/contact-us.html\">Contact<\/a> our office today to schedule an appointment. We welcome patients from all over the greater <b>Denver<\/b> area, including <b>Aurora, Centennial, Englewood, Denver Tech Center<\/b>, and beyond.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Losing a tooth is often considered one of the most devastating dental injuries.
