A beautiful smile is more than just an aesthetic asset—it plays a key role in your self-esteem, social interactions, and overall oral health. At Kenneth Hovden DDS, we understand how losing one or more teeth can impact your confidence and quality of life. That’s why we offer advanced dental implant solutions from our Daly City office to help patients restore their smiles with results that look and feel natural.
Why Dental Implants Stand Out
Dental implants are one of the most successful and trusted methods for replacing missing teeth. Designed to mimic the structure of natural teeth, implants are securely placed into the jawbone to serve as artificial roots. Over time, the implant fuses with the bone, providing long-term support for a crown, bridge, or even dentures.
Unlike other options that may slip or require adhesives, dental implants stay in place and function like your natural teeth. They restore not only the appearance of your smile but also its strength, allowing you to chew, speak, and smile with confidence.
The Implant Process from Start to Finish
Dr. Ken Hovden specializes in both the placement and restoration of dental implants, making the process seamless from beginning to end. There’s no need to bounce between different providers. Everything is handled in one location with the same skilled team that knows your dental history and goals.
The first step is determining if you are a good candidate. Once confirmed, Dr. Hovden will place the implant into the jawbone. Over the next several weeks, the implant will bond with the bone in a process called osseointegration. Once healing is complete, a small connector called an abutment is attached, followed by a custom-made crown that matches the look and color of your natural teeth.
This carefully staged process results in a restoration that is both functional and attractive, built to last for years with proper care.
More Than a Cosmetic Fix
Dental implants offer a number of benefits beyond aesthetics. They help keep the surrounding teeth in place by filling in gaps that could otherwise lead to shifting or misalignment. They also help prevent jawbone loss, a common problem when missing teeth are left untreated.
Additionally, implants are easy to maintain. You can brush and floss them just like natural teeth, without needing special cleaning solutions or removal. For many patients, this convenience is just as valuable as the improvement in appearance.
