Tampa, FL patients considering tooth replacement options might be overwhelmed by their choices. They may also want to make a smart decision that will last many years without replacement or problems. One of the most prominent tooth replacement solutions in the field of dentistry today is the dental implant. Dr. Angela Rasmussen of Gentle Dentistry is pleased to offer placement and restoration of dental implants.

Once this has occurred, the patient will benefit from the dental implant for life with proper care and maintenance. The dental implant can be restored over the abutment in numerous ways with either dental crowns, dental bridges, or dentures.
