Great restorations with long lasting strong procedures

People who are a candidate for dental implants are ones who are looking to replace missing teeth that they have, whether it’s one single tooth or it’s multiple missing teeth in the area. There’s no such thing as being too old to get a dental implant. Now the best time to get a dental implant is where we wait until the jaw is completely formed, especially in those young teens.

So we don’t recommend dental implants when patients are still in their growing age, but once they are adults to any age, a patient can get a dental implant. Full mouth dental implants are better than dentures because they are securely fitted into the jaw. There is no slipping, requires no adhesive, allowing the patient to be able to chew properly, speak and smile confidently.

The gold standard of dental implants and full mouth reconstruction is placing four to six implants in the proper placement where the patient is able to chew properly, function and smile confidently, replacing a full set of teeth and enhancing their cosmetic appearance as well as their functional abilities. The different options of implant tooth replacement involve all in X procedures over dentures which are stamped on dentures as well as single tooth replacement options if you’re only missing one single tooth or an implant bridge if you’re missing more than that. Dental implants are placed with precise digital planning and clinical expertise where they are secured into the jawbone ensuring proper placement and long-lasting success.

Removable implant dentures work by placing a certain amount of implants into the jawbone where the denture is able to snap in into place. It is a great option for patients who are not able to get an All-on-X procedure which is a fixed option, but they need an upgrade to their traditional dentures. We offer all the proper instructions and maintaining your implants so they’re lasting for as long as possible.

Peri-implantitis is where the implants start to have bone loss or tissue loss around the area where they may be heading to failure. Early intervention by going to the dentist allows us to be able to reverse that peri-implantitis and ensure the long-lasting success of the implants removing any active infection that is there.

Replace One or Many Teeth

When you’ve lost one or several teeth, dental implants provide the most natural-looking and functioning replacement option. Your dentist can replace missing teeth with full-sized or mini implants combined with:

Implant Crown – You can replace a single tooth with an implant-supported crown. Unlike most practices, we can make your dental crown in house. So your implant and crown can be placed in a single appointment.
Implant Bridge – An implant-supported dental bridge is ideal for replacing several missing teeth in a row. You avoid having to alter healthy teeth to support the implant. Plus, you can take care of it like a regular tooth.

Discover Full Arch Options

Beyond just one or a few tooth replacement needs, we have implant solutions that can restore an entire arch of teeth. Your dentist can recommend:

All-on-4 or 6 Implants – This procedure uses just four or six strategically placed implants posts to support an entire arch of teeth, making them an efficient and cost-effective solution for full-arch restoration.
Implant Dentures – You can secure your dentures to dental implants. You’ll no longer need to use adhesive to keep your teeth in place.
Full-Mouth Reconstruction – With a reconstruction, your dentist will build a custom treatment plan that combines multiple procedures including bone grafting, implant placement, and restorative procedures to completely rebuild your smile.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Implants

What are dental implants?

Dental implants are small posts made from titanium that your dentist inserts into your jawbone to serve as replacement teeth roots. If you are missing one or more teeth, implants function as a base for several types of new replacement teeth, including crowns, bridges, dentures, and full arches of fixed teeth.

Are dental implants painful?

Having a dental implant placed is not painful because your jaw will be numbed, plus you can stay completely relaxed with dental sedation throughout your procedure. Once you go home, you might require pain relievers for a day or two, but most of our patients report only taking over-the-counter medication following their dental implant procedure. Most feel well enough to return to work the day after.

How much do dental implants cost?

The cost of implants depends on factors like how many teeth are missing and how you intend to restore your implants (with a dental crown, dental bridge, full dentures, or partial dentures). No matter what, we will make sure you know all your options and costs before heading into your procedure.
