We are committed to being our client’s resource for modern dental care so they can enjoy a lifetime of good oral health. We offer compassionate care, education, and treatment. If an implant is needed, we can get it done for you!
Partial dentures that are removable work. However, they are not nearly as stable as dental implants and can affect speech and eating. Partial dentures do not function as well as dental implants.
Even if a person has had a tooth extracted 5 or 10 years ago, and has not replaced it, they still could be a good candidate for dental implants. It comes down to the question of bone density. Elapsed time is not a reason to avoid getting implants!
Implant surgery consists of a titanium screw being placed into the jawbone. This procedure typically takes an hour. A local anesthetic is applied to numb the area during surgery, so that you do not feel a thing.
Dental implants are today's state-of-the-art tooth replacement method. Whether you are missing one tooth or many, dental implants are preferred by doctors and patients. Dental implants preserve bone and improve function and well-being.
When a person transitions from lost teeth to implants, they regain the ability to eat virtually anything and can smile with confidence, knowing that teeth appear natural and the facial contours will be preserved.
If you are missing a tooth, an implant is a great way to fill the gap. Implants are permanent, comfortable and convenient, good for the teeth and jaw, and can even make it easier to speak.
Missing teeth, if not replaced can cause structural changes to your mouth and jaw. The American Academy of Implant Dentistry states that, unlike dentures, dental implants preserve and stimulate growth of the jaw bone.
Dental implants have a high success rate. When implants are well-planned and cared for they generally tend to have a higher success rate than other teeth replacement options.
Dental implants work. There are many success stories from people who have them. Dental implants are made of what rockets are made of...TITANIUM. No wonder they are so strong and effective.
Dental implants are artificial teeth that are placed into the jawbone. Implants are an option for people who have lost a tooth due to an injury, or periodontal disease. Implants include screws and cylinders that are set into the jaw.
We are dedicated to providing our patients with dental solutions such as implants. We provide quality, comprehensive dental care in a relaxing environment. Reach out to us for a healthier, more confident smile!
Dental implants are root-like devices, frequently made of titanium, that support restorations of missing teeth. They are placed within the bone of the jaw and mimic a typical tooth's root, allowing the restoration to attach properly.
To be a candidate for a dental implant, it is important to be in good general health and have adequate bone to support the implant in your jaw. The ideal candidate will also have healthy gum tissue, free of periodontal disease.
Dental implants have the ability to preserve your appearance. Often, when a jawbone begins to deteriorate, your face can appear sunken in. This can tend to make a person look years older than they are. Implants keep your face looking full and youthful.
In the case of missing teeth, a dental implant may be the best option. Implants provide a permanent solution for missing teeth. Implant replacements are surgically connected to the jaw for stability and functionality.
Regarding implants one of the main questions asked is about the duration of time. A dentist will want to leave the gum to heal and the implant to fuse with the jawbone, before fitting the permanent implant. The healing can take up to 6 weeks to six months.
History tells us that dental implants are extraordinarily successful. The special property that titanium has of fusing to bone, is called osseointegration (“osseo” “integration” fusion or joining with), this is the biological basis of dental implants success.
Most everyone is suitable for dental implants, however, if you have certain medical conditions such as uncontrolled diabetes, cancer or problems within your immune system, it is wise to check with your physician first.
A fun fact to know is this: Dental implants are made of what rockets are made of…TITANIUM. No wonder they are so strong!
If you are thinking you are too old for dental implants, think again. Dental implants are the standard of care for the replacement of missing teeth. So, no age is too old for dental implants.
Dental implants are the tooth replacement option that is most similar to your own teeth, in both appearance and in function. We are happy to provide a consultation to discuss your options and determine whether you are a good candidate for implants.
Dental implants are anchored to the bone instead of the tooth’s root. In fact, because of this implants can withstand more pressure than natural teeth. Dental implants are built to last and with proper care should last a lifetime.
We pride ourselves in educating our patient’s regarding dental implant procedures. We are committed to being a resource of modern dentistry care so that our clients can enjoy a lifetime of good oral health. Connect with us today.
We have built a solid reputation in the community and surrounding area regarding quality oral health regarding dental implants. We have a personalized approach for each of our patient’s needs.
Apples and other hard fruits and vegetables should be avoided in the weeks immediately following a dental implant procedure. Cutting the apples first and consuming with care in the long run is best as well.
Dental professionals say titanium screws inserted into the jawbone and capped with a permanent crown are long-lasting and the best option for most people. Reach out to us with questions.
