Precision-planned tooth replacement built on the science of long-term function and aesthetics.
A dental implant is a titanium post placed in the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth, topped with a custom restoration that looks and functions like the real thing. Implants are the closest dentistry has come to replicating a natural tooth. At Toothology in Richmond, implant care is one of our practice’s clinical specialties, backed by Associate Fellowship in the American Academy of Implant Dentistry and more than 500 continuing education credits in implant dentistry.
Results That Speak for Themselves
Implants are the only tooth replacement option that preserves the jawbone, holds adjacent teeth in place, and lets you eat and speak without compromise. They don’t decay, they don’t require modifying the teeth next to them (the way a bridge does), and under ideal circumstances, the implant can last over 15 years. The science is unambiguous. What matters is the planning. The team at Toothology treats every implant case as a long-term restoration: the right site, the right angle, the right crown, and the long view that defines the practice.
An excellent replacement option for a single missing tooth. A titanium post, a custom abutment, and a porcelain crown matched precisely to your existing teeth.
For patients missing several teeth, implants can be placed individually or used to support a bridge that replaces multiple teeth at once, often without disturbing healthy adjacent teeth.
A full upper or lower row of teeth supported by four or more strategically placed implants. A fixed, life-changing solution for patients facing significant tooth loss.
Removable dentures that snap securely onto implants, eliminating the slipping, sore spots, and dietary challenges of traditional dentures.
When the jawbone has thinned and resorbed, or dissolved, after tooth loss, a graft help to rebuilds the foundation needed to support an implant. Common, predictable, and planned in advance when needed.
