DENTAL IMPLANTS - HOUSTON, TX
About Dental Implants
Dental implants are a permanent, natural-looking solution for replacing missing teeth. Unlike dentures or bridges, implants are surgically placed into the jawbone, providing a secure foundation that mimics the strength and function of natural teeth. They help prevent bone loss, restore facial structure, and make it easier to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. At Dr. Friedberg & Associates, we specialize in custom implant treatments tailored to each patient’s needs. Learn more about the benefits of implants in the American Academy of Periodontology’s implant guide.

Dental Implants In Houston, TX
- 1
Bone Deterioration
Traditional dentures rest on the gums and do nothing to preserve the underlying jawbone. Over time, this can lead to bone loss, causing the face to sag and dentures to become loose or shift uncomfortably. Fortunately, dental implants offer a solution by mimicking natural tooth roots and stimulating the bone to prevent atrophy. - 2
Embarrassing Clicking Noises
One of the biggest frustrations with dentures is the unexpected clicking or shifting while talking or eating. This constant slippage can be embarrassing and disruptive in social situations. In contrast, dental implants are securely anchored and function just like your natural teeth, offering both comfort and confidence. - 3
Diminished Tooth Strength
Some tooth replacement options, like traditional bridges, require grinding down healthy teeth to support the prosthetic. This process can weaken the surrounding teeth over time. On the other hand, dental implants stand alone and do not compromise the strength or structure of your remaining teeth.
