Dental Implants in
Gulfport

Thanks to advances in dental technology, overcoming tooth loss is easier than ever. The experienced team at Walter Guillot understand the latest techniques for installing high-quality dental implants that provide the function and appearance our patients expect.

When tooth loss occurs, there are a variety of replacement options. We understand that our patients are looking for prosthetic teeth that look natural and function perfectly. Dental implants can accomplish this. They consist of titanium metal posts that are surgically placed in the jaw bone and act as replacement tooth roots to which your new teeth will be permanently attached. Over time, the metal will begin to fuse with the jawbone, ensuring a secure fit.

In order to meet our patients’ needs, we offer both All-on-4 Implants and Endosteal Implants.

All-On-4 Implants

Patients who have lost an entire arch of teeth can achieve a beautiful new smile using the All-on-4 system. These implants will support a full row of teeth using just four implants per arch. By placing these implants at a specific angle in precise locations, the replacement teeth receive dependable support at all times. A benefit to All-on-4 implants is that the recovery time is reduced since fewer implants are used.

Endosteal Implants

This type of titanium implant can be used for replacing a single tooth, several teeth or a dental bridge. With support from the jawbone, endosteal implants keep your new tooth or teeth consistently steady and secure.

How do I take care of my implants?

Take care of your new teeth just like natural teeth. Brush and floss them. The implant system resists staining, but avoid drinks that commonly stain normal teeth.

Are Implants Safe?

Yes! Implants are made of titanium because its properties are known to fuse well with human bone.

Should I get dentures or implants?

Both dentures and implants replace missing teeth with strong prosthetic teeth that last for years. Dentures offer a more affordable option but may be susceptible to slipping. Permanently set implants provide a strong bite and are easy to care for. Pricing for implants can vary depending on many teeth need to be replaced.
