People who have the experienced the loss of a tooth can understand the harm it can cause to their appearance and self-image. At the office of Dental Smiles of Bolingbrook, we are committed to helping each and every patient with a full range of dental services including restorative and cosmetic needs.

Patients who are affected by lost or missing teeth have a range of options in care -- from dental bridges, to partial or full dentures, as well as dental implants. While all of these choices to reestablish a complete smile produce good results, dental implants come the closest to replicating the look, feel, and function of a natural teeth. Since a dental implant acts in much the same way as the root of your natural tooth, once it becomes fully integrated into the surrounding jawbone, it maintains bone structure, keeps adjacent teeth from occupying the missing space, and helps to preserve your normal facial contours. With a success rate of 98 percent, they are an outstanding choice in care.
