Pasadena, Texas Dental Implants
Single Tooth Replacement with Dr. Nugent
A dental implant replaces the root structure of a missing tooth. The implant is placed into the bone where the bone fuses to the implant. Then the implant is restored to look, feel and function like a natural tooth.
Dental implants are far superior to the old fashioned teeth replacement methods (bridges, partial dentures). Dr. Nugent used dental implants to replace teeth on his Mother, Father, Mother-in-law, Father-in-law, Friends and Work Team Members.
