All staff members are very nice. I came in after having neck surgery. Range of motion wasn’t normal for me. They worked on it to make sure I was comfortable and not in pain. Will be going back again.

Benefits of Dental Implants

Benefits of Dental Implants benefits of dental implants

Dental implants are a remarkable technology, and though they have existed for a long time, they are only now becoming familiar to many of our patients. At Chesterfield Family & Cosmetic Dental Centers in Springfield, MO, we offer a wide range of dental treatments, including implant dentistry. We encourage all of our patients to learn a bit more about them, and the many ways they can improve your oral health and the good looks of your smile.

The Key Benefits of Implant Dentistry

As your chosen dentist in Springfield, our goal is to give you the healthiest and most functional teeth and gums possible. That is why we ensure that an implant dentist is always available. This is because dental implants are a total replacement for a missing tooth. It is not just an artificial crown, but a post that serves as the roots of the new tooth as well as that durable new crown.

Why should dental implants be better than something like a denture or bridge? It has to do with the health of the bone and gum tissue. When you lose a tooth, the area of the jaw bone that once held the tooth can be reabsorbed by the body. The gum tissue is also going to atrophy and tighten. This can alter your appearance, your speech and your ability to chew.

However, among the benefits of dental implants is that none of these things happen. The use of the implant prevents bone loss and tissue loss, plus it holds all of the teeth in their natural positions. When a gap is opened in the teeth, it allows the remaining teeth to loosen, and this can lead to your bite becoming misaligned and to problems with the teeth.

The good news is that implants can put a stop to all of these things, while also restoring your mouth to full function. You look, speak and eat as before when you opt for implants. You don’t have to worry about bone or tissue loss or teeth shifting. You can even enjoy easy oral hygiene because implants need the same care as your other teeth.

Happy Patients

I am always excited to go to the dentist now that I go to Chesterfield Family Dental. They always answer any questions I have and are so friendly and nice. I am always so comfortable here, which is saying alot because I have peridontal disease and the treatment for it doesn't always feel so great, but when Im here, the hygenist makes me forget all about it!

The staff is so warm and welcoming from the moment you walk in the door. Even though my son is a bit apprehensive about going to the dentist since he had to have four teeth pulled in the past, he is still always happy to see them. Dr. Buzbee and his staff are so great and patient with him. He leaves with a smile on his face and no cavities!

I have been a patient of Dr. Buzbee for as long as I can remember. The Staff at Chesterfield Family Dental is always greet you when you walk in and they seem to know everyone by name. The care you get for the staff is always great and all seem to be the best of the best at what they do. I have always recommend anyone I know to go see them and will continue to do so in the future.
