Permanent Tooth Replacement with Dental Implants

Missing teeth can impact everything from your confidence to your ability to chew and speak clearly. At Will Owen IV DMD, we offer advanced dental implant solutions for patients in Camden and surrounding areas who want a permanent, natural-looking way to restore their smile. Whether you're missing one tooth or a full arch, dental implants provide unmatched stability, function, and long-term oral health benefits.

We offer a full range of implant options, including single and multiple tooth replacements, All-on-4® implant systems, and implant-retained dentures. Each case is carefully planned by Dr. Will Owen IV to ensure optimal fit, appearance, and long-term success.

Our Dental Implant Options

We provide several types of implant restorations depending on your needs:

• Single Tooth Implants: Ideal for replacing one missing tooth without affecting adjacent teeth. A custom crown is placed on a single titanium implant for a seamless, functional result.
  
  
• Multiple Teeth Implants: Two or more implants can support bridges or partial restorations, offering greater durability than traditional bridges or dentures.
  
  
• Full Arch Replacements: A full arch of missing teeth can be replaced using a fixed implant-supported bridge, eliminating the need for removable dentures.
  
  
• All-on-4® Implants: This innovative method uses four strategically placed implants to support an entire arch of prosthetic teeth, ideal for patients seeking a quicker full-mouth solution with fewer implants.
  
  
• Implant-Retained Dentures: For improved stability and comfort, implant-retained dentures snap securely into place using 2–4 implants, reducing slippage and improving function.

Each implant solution is designed with aesthetics, bite strength, and long-term health in mind. We also collaborate with trusted oral surgeons and periodontists as needed to ensure every step of the procedure is handled with precision and care.

Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental implants offer several advantages over traditional restorations:

• Mimic natural tooth appearance and function
  
  
• Prevent bone loss and preserve facial structure
  
  
• No impact on surrounding healthy teeth
  
  
• Long-lasting and highly durable with proper care
  
  
• Improved chewing ability and speech
  
  
• Greater confidence and stability compared to removable options

Implants are often recommended after tooth loss, extraction, or failure of other restorations. We’ll assess your oral health and bone density to determine if you’re a good candidate.

Supporting Services

Many implant patients begin with a thorough exam and general dentistry evaluation. If needed, procedures like periodontal treatment or root canals may be completed before implant placement to ensure success. We also offer crowns as the final restoration over implants, custom-matched to your natural teeth.
