affordable tooth replacements in Agawam & Feeding Hills, MA

If you're missing a tooth, you're not alone. Millions of Americans have lost at least one tooth, but luckily there are several dental interventions available to help restore your smile. One way to replace a missing tooth is with a single tooth dental implant, which is a long-lasting and extremely natural-looking option. We're proud to offer single tooth replacement treatments at Feeding Hills Dental Care and are here to help you discover if this restoration is right for you. 

What Does a Single Tooth Replacement Do?

A single tooth replacement is a dental implant that is used to replace one missing tooth. This type of implant is placed in the space where your missing tooth used to be and functions just like your natural teeth. With a single tooth replacement, you'll be able to eat, speak, and smile with confidence, knowing that your new tooth is securely in place. In addition to restoring your smile, single tooth implants prevent teeth from shifting and help to preserve your facial structure.

Signs a Single Tooth Replacement Is Right for You

A single tooth replacement might be right for you if you meet the following criteria: 

You're missing a tooth.

You have enough bone in your jaw to support the implant.

You're in good overall health. 

You don't have any conditions that could affect healing, such as diabetes or gum disease. 

Common Questions about single tooth replacements

If you’re considering options for replacing a single missing tooth, here are answers to some common FAQs to help you make an informed decision.

  •  How long does a single tooth replacement with a dental implant take? The process typically takes several months, including implant placement, healing (3-6 months), and crown placement. Timing varies based on healing and any additional procedures needed.
  • What are the benefits of choosing a dental implant over other options? Dental implants provide a permanent, natural-looking solution without altering adjacent teeth, preserve jawbone health, and are highly durable, often lasting a lifetime with proper care.
  • How should I care for my single tooth replacement? Maintain excellent oral hygiene by brushing and flossing regularly, visit your dentist for checkups, and avoid habits that could damage the implant, like chewing on hard objects.

frequently asked questions

your Single Tooth Implant questions, answered

  • Is a single tooth implant painful?

    The procedure is done under local anesthesia, so you shouldn’t feel pain during the surgery. Some discomfort is expected afterward, but it’s usually manageable with over-the-counter pain relievers and subsides after a few days.

  • How long do single tooth implants last?

    With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. The crown on top may need to be replaced after 10-15 years due to normal wear, but the implant itself is very durable.

  • Are there any risks associated with single tooth implants?

    As with any surgery, there are some risks, such as infection, implant failure, or injury to surrounding teeth. However, dental implants have a high success rate, and complications are rare, especially when performed by an experienced dentist.

  • How much does a single tooth implant cost?

    The cost can vary depending on factors like the complexity of the case, the need for additional procedures, and your location. At Feeding Hills Dental Care, we’ll discuss your treatment plan and financing options to help make the procedure affordable for you.

  • Can a single tooth implant help prevent bone loss?

    Yes! Dental implants help stimulate the jawbone, preventing the bone loss that typically occurs after losing a tooth. This makes them a great long-term solution for maintaining oral health and facial structure.

  • What is the recovery time after a single tooth implant?

    Recovery from the initial implant surgery usually takes a few days to a week. However, it will take a few months for the implant to fully integrate with the jawbone before the final crown can be placed.
