Replace missing teeth

Oral Surgeon in Fort Myers

Living with missing teeth or knowing that you may lose your teeth to decay, injury, or other reasons can definitely be stressful. Not only is the loss of teeth difficult to deal with, but the subsequent results are as well. You may feel self conscious about your appearance and everyday activities like eating become a difficult chore. Here at McGregor Dental at McGregor Point, our oral surgeon in Fort Myers can provide you with options for replacing your missing teeth, including a set of strong, durable and natural looking dental implants.


There are plenty of ways to fix and replace missing teeth. Once teeth are lost, no matter the reason, it is imperative that they are replaced for several reasons. Cosmetically, replacing missing or lost teeth can fill out your smile and help boost your self confidence. Medically, the lack of teeth, gaps in your smile or other issues caused by missing teeth can put a significant amount of strain on your bite and jaw. It may sometimes even cause any remaining teeth to shift in place as well. Replacing missing teeth helps restore function to your bite while also restoring its cosmetic appearance. When it comes to replacing teeth, bridges and dentures can be used, but neither of these options is as strong or natural looking as dental implants. If you have missing teeth or teeth that need to be extracted, call us here at McGregor Dental at McGregor Point and schedule an appointment with one of our dentists in Fort Myers to discuss the possibility of dental implants. This method gains its strength from the use of titanium posts that are surgically inserted into your gums that meld with your jawbone in a biological process known as osseointegration. This makes your posts just as strong as a natural tooth root.


Dental implants are unlike bridges and dentures in that they feel, perform and look like natural teeth. If you have missing teeth, have teeth that need to be removed and then subsequently replaced, then be sure to call us here at McGregor Dental at McGregor Point. Our oral surgeon in Fort Myers dental office can provide you with the consultation and preliminary exam that you need to determine whether dental implants are a viable option for you.
