Missing teeth in American Fork, Utah? Consider dental implants from Greg G. Pitts DDS as a permanent solution to your missing teeth. Once we restore your “incomplete” smile with dental implants, you don’t have to think about that gap again. Although tooth implant surgery has over 98% success rate, implant failure can still occur. Dental implant placement is like any other surgery, so aftercare is vital for the procedure’s success.
Dental implant treatment is oral surgery, so whether you receive local anesthesia or opt for sedation dental care, you must follow post-operative care for a hitch-free recovery. Dr. Greg Pitts has supervised numerous dental implants and is happy to share post-operative tips and tricks.
We also advise patients to avoid strenuous activities a few days after surgery and quit smoking until their gums heal completely. Remember to adhere to regular dental checkups for our dental team to establish whether your implant is healing as expected.
Never go with missing teeth — dental implants closely mimic the function and appearance of your teeth. Ready for some implant action in American Fork, UT? Please call (801) 758-0019 to schedule an implant consultation with Greg G. Pitts DDS.
