Questions for Your Lithia, FL Dentist
We are happy to answer questions about our services and procedures.
These are a selection of some common questions that patients have. If your question isn't answered here, please contact our office. It's important to us that our patients understand their dental care.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are intended to blend in seamlessly with your natural teeth.
One of the advantages of this is that you can brush them and floss them the same as you would with your regular teeth. While implants never get cavities (and never need root canals), you still want to continue brushing and flossing to keep your natural teeth and your gums healthy.
Why Care Still Matters
While the implant itself cannot decay, the health of your gums and surrounding bone is critical to its success. Brushing and flossing are essential to prevent gum disease, which can weaken the foundation of the implant if left untreated. By keeping your mouth clean, you ensure your implant stays strong for a lifetime.

Dental implants are often considered the gold standard for tooth replacement because they mimic the entire structure of a natural tooth, from the root to the crown.
Dental implants have several advantages over other tooth replacement options:
- Natural Appearance: Dental implants appear the most life-like and natural.
- Superior Stability and Function: The actual implant piece of the dental implant is made of titanium, a biocompatible metal.
- Protection Against Bone Loss: Dental implants prevent bone loss, keeping your jaw tissue healthy and preventing changes in the shape of your face.
- A Permanent Solution: With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime.
