The short answer to this question is no.
The longer explanation is that dental implants in Towson require a surgical placement procedure to place the implant carefully into your jawbone, where it will heal and integrate with it over time.
Because patients are entirely numb during the procedure, and because our implant dentists in Towson, MD are working with your bone that has no nerves, there's not a lot of discomfort associated with the surgery. Most patients say dental implant placement surgery is more comfortable than a tooth extraction or a root canal.
The Benefits of Dental Implants
Even though implants require surgery, there are a lot of benefits associated with the procedure that other tooth replacement treatments don't offer, such as:
- The look, function, and feel of a natural tooth
- Replaces both your tooth and root
- Protection for the health of your jawbone. It keeps it stimulated like a tooth root.
