Single Tooth Implants by Potomac Dental Care in Woodbridge, VA
Missing a single tooth can impact your confidence, bite, and long-term oral health. At Potomac Dental Care, Dr. Humam Alathari provides single tooth dental implants in Woodbridge, VA to help patients restore their smiles with precision, durability, and aesthetics in mind.
What Is a Single Tooth Implant?
A single tooth implant replaces a missing tooth using a titanium post (implant), an abutment, and a custom-made dental crown. Unlike a bridge, this solution doesn’t require altering adjacent healthy teeth.
