Dental Implants
Living life with missing teeth can be incredibly inconvenient. Whether you’ve lost a tooth due to decay or you expect to have a tooth pulled as part of a surgical procedure, getting a dental implant procedure can be an essential step forward in restoring dental health. Without getting the missing tooth replaced, you can be subject to chewing and speech problems as well as bone loss in the jaw. Protect your oral health with a dental implant at Heroes Dental.
Dental Implants Can Help Restore Your Smile
Fill Gaps
If you have missing teeth due to decay, a dental implant can help restore your smile and support the health of your natural teeth.
Prevent Shifting
When gaps are left untreated, the teeth nearby can shift and realign, potentially leading to bone damage in the jaw.

Dental Implant FAQs
Can Dental Implants Support Prosthetic Teeth?
There are several different types of dental implants that can be used for different purposes. We offer a limited selection of implants at our office, but we’re happy to provide referrals to a capable oral surgeon for any oral surgery procedures you may need.
Are There Any Risks to Dental Implants?
There are three main risks to dental implant procedures. First, the procedure itself may result in damage to your own teeth, gums, and other tissue. Next, the implant position may lead to difficulty cleaning the tooth or an uneven bite. Last, implant failure may occur due to infections or improper healing. You can talk to your dentist for more information about the potential risks of dental implants.
What Should I Do After a Dental Implant Surgery?
After your dental implant procedure, you should take care for at least the next 24 hours to avoid disturbing the wound. This includes eating soft foods, getting plenty of rest, avoiding smoking, and aggressive brushing. You can also use ice packs and pain medications for any discomfort. Talk to your dentist for more information about caring for your McAllen dental implants.
