Dental Implants

Missing teeth? You are not alone. 

According to the American College of Prosthodontists (ACP), about 178 million Americans are missing at least 1 tooth. Out of these 178 million Americans, an estimated 40 million people lost all teeth.

Simply put, well over half of all adult Americans have lost one tooth at the very least!

Lifetime Tooth Replacement

Modern dental implants offer the most reliable, cost-effective, and lasting tooth replacement treatment. Decade’s worth of research shows that dental implants have a success rate of 95%-98% after the 40–50-year mark. 

Whether you’re missing a single tooth or multiple teeth, we got you covered! Our team provides a permanent solution to give you a natural-looking, lifelong smile. 

Why are Dental Replacements So Popular?

According to the American Academy of Implant Dentistry (AAID), the number of Americans getting dental implants increases by 500,000 each year, and for good reason!

For starters, dental implants are long-lasting, cost-effective, look beautiful, and promote oral health.

1. Implants provide a long-lasting solution

Dental implants are designed to last a lifetime! Through the process of osseointegration, the titanium used in your dental implant biologically fuses with your bone, spurring bone growth to strengthen your jawbone and ensuring lasting results.

The implant essentially plants new roots in your jaw to help maintain your facial shape and provide long-term bite stabilization.

2. Implants are cost-effective

With proper care, the lifetime nature of dental implants will save you thousands of dollars long term.  

Dentures and bridges require significant long-term costs for ongoing maintenance. While dental implants may cost more upfront, they will save you a lot of money long term.

3. Implants look great

Dental implants are shaded and custom-shaped to fit naturally in your existing smile. 

In terms of beauty, strength, and function, the only difference between your real teeth and dental implants is that they're not real- and only you will know!

4. Implants promote oral health

Unlike the teeth you were born with, modern implants do not decay or get cavities.

Bacteria and food particles still need to be brushed away to maintain healthy gums, but oral hygiene is much easier as implants behave like normal teeth.

Dental implants do not require reducing other teeth to support the implant. With more of your teeth left intact, implants lead to better long-term oral health.

Dental implants offer a cost-effective, long-lasting, health-focused, and beautiful solution for missing teeth.

If restoring your smile is something you’ve considered, we’d love to offer you complimentary implant consultation.

Implant-Secured Dentures

If you are tired of maintaining your typical dentures, we provide full-mouth dental implants!

These implant-secured dentures are strategically placed dental implants. Implanted dentures function as permanent dentures and create a customized, implant-retained denture that snaps securely into place.

The result? Amazing stability that restores natural function!

Dental implants with dentures prevent slippage and allow you to speak clearly because the dental implants secure the dentures in place. They prevent bone loss from denture use and maintain your natural facial structure.

Additionally, dental implants eliminate painful sore spots caused by denture pressure points.

Benefits of Dental Implants with Dentures

  • Stronger Fit
  • Stop Bone Loss
  • Less Pain
  • Speak Clearly

Frequently Asked Questions about Dental Implants

1. Am I Too Old?

Although osteoporosis and other age-related jawbone issues impact implant treatment, dental implant design is for patients of all ages. 

If you’ve spent many years dealing with the challenges of dentures, now may be the time for you to experience permanent tooth replacement.

2. Are Dental Implants Painful?

With today’s modern sedation and/or anesthesia, the treatment itself will be pain-free. Like any surgery, you may experience some tenderness for a few days after receiving dental implants.

However, we have some simple solutions to help you through it. The discomfort will soon be gone, and you’ll have a permanent tooth in its place.

implants.
