What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a recently evolved technology, which aims to replace lost natural teeth. An implant is made to be as like natural teeth as could be expected, in terms of both physical features and functionality. A dentist inserts an implant into the jawbone to replace a missing root of a natural tooth.

Dental Implants Typically Have Three Parts
The Implant
A screw that serves as a root for your new teeth. This is what permanently attaches to your jaw.

What Is a Dental Implant Procedure Like?
Traditional wire braces are a tried and true orthodontic treatment. They have provided millions of people with permanent smiles for years. Traditional metal braces can be used to treat crooked, crowded, and misaligned teeth and jaws.
Single Implant (Replacing a Single Tooth):
If you are missing a single tooth, one implant and a crown can replace it.
Multiple Implants (Replacing Several Teeth):
If you are missing several teeth, implant-supported bridges can replace them.
Teeth-in-a-day (Replacing All of Your Teeth):
If you are missing all of your teeth, an implant-supported full bridge or full denture can replace them.

Upper denture was poorly fitting and the missing lower teeth prevented him from being able to chew or bite comfortably. He could not enjoy family functions that involved eating, smiling or just being social. His last Dentist told him to use denture glue and to just get used to his hopeless condition.
After
Solution

Before
Problem
Patient had an uncomfortable upper denture and a lower partial that was falling apart. He was losing his teeth both from his lower jaw as well from the partial. He had researched dental implants and selected our office for his treatment. He was looking forward to finding ONE office to handle all of his needs instead of going from office to office to office.After
Solution
Full mouth implant reconstruction with implants on top and bottom. Teeth in a day with teeth that stayed in place when he left. He was thrilled since he did not have to have a denture at all. His teeth were solid and stable after surgery. His final porcelain/zirconia teeth worked GREAT. He said his cheeks hurt from smiling so much.Our Services
Teeth In A Day
A unique dental implant process, teeth in a day take away the hassle of complex and time-consuming procedures.

Taking away the long wait, we will swiftly place a removable denture, allowing you to have an entire arch of new prosthetic teeth in one appointment.
Single Implants
Every year, we as a reliable dental office place hundreds of implants for patients who have lost a single tooth and need urgent tooth replacement and repair.
We treat a great many patients consistently, who have lost a single tooth and are in critical need of tooth replacement and repair.
For such patients, we offer single implants; it is great for those who have one or a few missing teeth. A single implant can fill in the gap and make a consistent look and perfectly working teeth.

Supported by only four implants, the all-on-four tooth replacement methods permit patients to have a full set of new, natural-looking permanent teeth in a single day.

Fortunately for you, we offer a wide range of tooth replacement solutions to renew oral health and function, and possibly above all, further develop your confidence to grin in every personal and professional situation.
If you have encountered more advanced tooth loss, overdenture might be the most ideal choice, and for those keen on somewhat more stability, we offer overdentures. We look forward to helping you restore your full & healthy grin.
Learn about the benefits of dental implants
Additionally, dental implants provide special benefits other restorations don’t, including:
- A natural look and feel
- Improved speech
- Younger appearance
- The ability to enjoy your favorite foods
- Long-lasting results
- Conservative treatment options
Dentures
One major benefit of having quality form fitting dentures is they truly are a functioning set of teeth that will look and feel great. Modern dentures are natural looking and fit so much better than they used to. The issue of a comfortable fit is something that bothers many people who may have experienced the older and less comfortable dentures. But, dental technology has advanced and new materials are being used for dentures, which mean a vastly improved set of dentures and life.
