North Hollywood Dentist, Dr. Afar, Offers Dental Implants as Permanent Restorations for Missing Teeth

    NORTH HOLLYWOOD, CA, June 04, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- North Hollywood dentist, Dr. Bijan Afar, offers dental implants as permanent restorations for missing teeth. Many patients are missing one or more teeth, which can substantially affect the health and appearance of their smiles. These lost teeth can even trigger a chain reaction. As bone tissue is lost in response to the lost tooth, the health of adjacent teeth can be affected. They may be more likely to suffer from gum disease, tooth decay or loss.

Dental implants are a revolutionary tooth replacement alternative. Many dentists and patients prefer them because they require no alteration of surrounding teeth and they are sturdy and durable. Dental implants fit directly in the jawbone where they act as the root of the missing tooth, which can then be replaced with a porcelain crown or other restoration. Many patients with one or more missing teeth are candidates for dental implants. Dr. Bijan Afar, North Hollywood dentist, can help patients learn more about their tooth replacement options.

Dr. Afar, skilled North Hollywood dental implants expert, offers other treatment options that can improve dental health, too. Tooth-colored fillings, root canal treatments, porcelain crowns, dental bridges, dentures, periodontal treatments and orthodontics are all available and can help patients achieve a healthier, more functional smile. Aesthetics are also addressed. Cosmetic options include teeth whitening treatments, porcelain veneers, Lumineers and Invisalign.
