Dental Implants
Revive Your Smile with Dental Implants
Missing teeth can make a person look old, interfere with a healthy diet, and damage self-esteem. In addition, studies show that patients without teeth do not live as long as those with natural or prosthetic teeth. The jawbone deteriorates when teeth are missing, and cheeks and lips collapse without the support that teeth provide. However, some patients don't want to wear dentures or partials. Dental implants, small, biocompatible posts, are the closest prosthetic to nature and provide a hassle-free way to restore your full smile.
Our natural-looking dental implants improve function, enhance appearance, and boost self-confidence. We perform implant placement and restorations in our office, so you won't have to visit the oral surgeon. As a trained implant dentist, Dr. Timmerman will surgically position implant posts into your jawbone. Precision placement is key. Once your mouth heals and the bone fuses to the posts, Dr. Timmerman will place crowns or a prosthetic (bridge, denture, or partial) on top of the posts. With dental implants, you will enjoy an amazing, fully functioning smile that requires no special maintenance. Simply visit us twice a year for cleanings and checkups, and be sure to brush and floss daily.
Put your smile in Dr. Timmerman's capable hands. If you have questions or would like to make an appointment, call our office. Conveniently located in Seattle, we serve patients from across the greater metropolitan area. Visit our patient library to learn more about dental implants.
