Complete Your Smile with Expert Dental Implant Restorations

Are you ready to complete your dental implant journey and enjoy a fully restored smile? At Elevated Dentistry in Charlottesville, Virginia, Dr. Nicholas Bottorff leads in creating custom dental implant restorations that look, feel and function just like your natural teeth.

What Are Dental Implant Restorations?

Dental implant restorations are the final step in your dental implant journey, turning titanium implant posts into natural-looking, fully functional teeth. Once your implant has successfully fused with your jawbone (typically 3-6 months), Dr. Bottorff will design and place your custom restoration to complete your new smile.

Dental Implant Restorations Include:

  • Single Implant Crowns – Perfect for replacing one missing tooth
  • Implant-Supported Bridges – Ideal for replacing multiple adjacent teeth
  • Implant-Supported Dentures – Complete or partial dentures for maximum stability
  • All-on-4® Treatment – Full arch replacement with just four implants
