Dr. Sawa is an expert in dental implant restorations, which can make a big difference in your life and how you feel. If you have a missing tooth, a single-unit implant can be used to avoid damaging adjacent healthy teeth, which would be cut down if a bridge were made.
Moreover, if you have dentures that do not fit, your denture can be fixed or repaired with the use of all on 4 implants, which are very secure and comfortable and will give you more confidence in smiling and much better ability to eat and chew.
