Dental Implants are changing the way people live. For patients that lost teeth, dental implants can provide patients the ability to eat virtually anything and allows them to smile with confidence. Dental implants are completely safe and can be placed with patients who have gum disease, patients who smoke, or patients who have missing teeth and wear dentures. Implants can be used to replace one or more missing teeth or help provide stability to dentures. Implants are titanium posts that get inserted into the jaw bone. After the implant bonds with the existing bone to provide a solid foundation, the replacement tooth looks, feels and function like a normal tooth. Furthermore, implants prevent the bone deterioration that typically results when a tooth is missing.
We numb you up the same way you get a filling. The dental implants are placed gently into the missing area. If we can get primary stability of the implant, you can get a temporary tooth restoration on the implant the SAME day. You don’t have to wear your denture anymore. You go to the work the same day with minimal discomfort! You will NEVER be without teeth. After a period of healing, typically about 3-4 months, a replacement tooth can be placed.
While most procedures are done with just local anesthetics, nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and sedation is always available for anxious patients. All procedures are done by our board certified periodontist. Our dentist in our state of the art facility always uses the most advanced technology including instantaneous, comfortable digital X-rays. Each treatment room is equipped with high definition flat screen televisions and WiFi accessibility to make your experience as comfortable as possible.
Are you missing a single tooth? If so, it might be a constant embarrassment to you. A single tooth implant has benefits over other methods like bridges. It looks natural, like a real tooth. It also works as a real tooth and you don’t have to worry about the health of surrounding teeth. It is easier to clean than a bridge.
The dentist will add the implant into the jaw. The dentist will let the implant and the bone bond together, which could take between two and six months. In the meantime, the dentist will place a temporary healing cap over the implant. After it heals, a crown or a replacement tooth will be added. Different systems and options are available, and the dentist will go over all of your options with you.
Are your teeth taking forever to move during braces? Sometimes additional forces are needed to move your teeth in the desired position. Whether it be intrusion, extrusion, and bring teeth forward or back, orthodontic mini screws may be the answer.
Orthodontic mini screws are a great advent to orthodontics. With the orthodontist recommendation, we plan where we need to put the mini screws. We numb you up the same way you would get a filling. The mini screws are gently placed within minutes. Minimal discomfort and minimal swelling occurs. Get your teeth moved in a timely manner! After treatment is complete, removal of the Ortho mini screw is gently removed.

Say GOOD-BYE to the missing space. SMILE with confidence and eat virtually anything you like! Brush and floss in between your teeth. Never develop a cavity.
Once the implant is fully integrated into the bone and exposed, we can begin the process of creating your custom tooth. Typically for one implant crown, it takes about 2 visits!
Implant Placed with Abutment
Single Porcelain Implant Crown
White Zirconia Dental Implant
The first visit is taking a mold of your mouth to send to our experienced Lab. At this visit, we also determine the shade of your tooth with YOUR approval. If you want any special request to be done to the tooth, please let us know.
The second visit, typically 1-2 weeks after the mold, the tooth is inserted. Contacts and bite is checked to make sure maximum comfort is obtained. Shade is checked to make sure you are HAPPY with the esthetics. The tooth is then cemented in. Remember, maintenance and cleaning is very important to the overall healthcare of your gums and teeth.
When designing a case to replace several missing adjacent front teeth, a restorative dentist or specialist may recommend a dental implant bridge instead of individual crowns. The reason for this is that due to anatomic limitations, replacing front teeth with crowns will often produce poor esthetic results. Replacing multiple adjoining front teeth with implant-supported bridges will reduce your treatment cost and improve the esthetics of your smile. Traditional implant-supported bridges can be utilized throughout the mouth eliminating placement of additional implant fixture in anatomically deficient areas or if chosen by the implant restorative dentist instead of individual tooth-for-tooth replacement.

Immediate dentures are ones you receive right away, the same day you lose your teeth. These dentures can go a long way toward improving oral health. They stem the bleeding, and they reduce the change of infection. They can also reduce swelling that occurs after you lose your teeth.
Another benefit is that the wearer doesn’t have to walk around with a smile fill of holes and can continue talking and chewing like they have in the past.
A mold is taken of the entire mouth, regardless of which teeth are missing. This is done so that the bite will line up correctly. After the mold is taken, the dentist will select your new teeth. After they are installed, your denture will be ready.
The dentures need to stay in your mouth for 72 hours. Without them, you’d need bandages to ensure the healing process works. After about 4 to 6 months, you’ll need to make another trip to the dentist because your gums will have gone down in swelling and the dentures won’t fit as well. Other options will be discussed for you in terms of permanent dentures are working with the ones you already have.
There are countless options for those who need dentures. So although the more conventional choices may still work for many, there’s no reason to limit your choices if you’re not happy.
Implant supported overdentures are a great choice. Most people who turn to implant supported overdentures either had experience with other types or would have been considered candidates for them had a dental professional not stepped in.
Compared to two popular types, complete dentures and removable partial dentures, implant supported overdentures don’t suffer from bone reposition as much, and either reduce or completely eliminate prosthesis movement. They look more realistic and appealing as well because of better tooth position. Lastly, one issue people often have with their dentures is with occlusion. A lot of times, dentures fit fine until they need to come in contact with teeth on the other jaw. This feature, known as occlusion, is considered especially good with implant supported overdentures.
Surgical implants are loaded right into the wearer’s mandible. These metal implants then connect with the overdentures, holding them flush to the skin when worn. Although they’re easily removed, once they’re in, no amount of yawning, chewing, talking, etc. is going to separate them from the jawbone.
The benefits of wearing screw retained permanent dentures with implants are obvious. They don’t move in your mouth and wearers do not have to worry about adhesives wearing away. They are also much more comfortable. Temporary dentures sometimes feel as if they are rubbing. With permanent dentures, this is not an issue.
Say goodbye to the denture adhesive or glue! No more gagging on an upper denture. Start chewing your food with confidence knowing that you can virtually eat anything you like! Smile with confidence. Start tasting your food by having an open palate denture. In order to get this type of prosthesis a minimum of 4 implants have to be placed in proper position. Naturally, the more implants that are placed, the more stable it is.
Once the implant is fully integrated into the bone and exposed the upper overdenture can then be fabricated. There is a possibility that we might be able to use your existing complete denture to attach it to the implants or we may have to fabricate you a new denture.
Implant Overdenture
Upper Implant Overdenture vs. Conventional Denture Implant
If we use your existing upper denture the process can be completed in as little as two visits. The first visit will be a mold of your mouth to send to lab. After a week we insert these “locator” attachments into the implants. Once inserted, we then attach the “housing” components under the existing denture. Once everything fits the overdenture is complete. It will feel a lot more comfortable and will be a lot more stable.
If we fabricate you another upper denture the process will take a few more visits. Once the denture is fabricated from the lab we insert the “locator” attachments into the implants and the “housing” components under the denture. Once everything fits the overdenture is complete. It will feel a lot more comfortable and will be a lot more stable. Remember, maintenance and cleaning is very important to the overall healthcare of your gums and teeth.

All on 4 dental implants are a relatively new form of dental implant that allows a dentist to replace all of the teeth on the top or bottom of your mouth, and to secure them in place with just four implants.
Tooth loss is something that is becoming increasingly common among American adults. There are more than 35 million people in the country who are missing all of either their upper set of teeth or their lower teeth.
Dentures can be frustrating to use, and are a hassle to take care of. All on 4 dental implants are a more convenient option that feels much more like real teeth.
With this kind of implant, there are four small titanium screws fitted inside your jawbone, which serve to replace the root part of what would normally be one tooth. With a single implant, a crown is attached to the implant, to make a prosthetic tooth. When you have more than one missing tooth, you can replace multiple teeth with just one implant, and that’s what all on four implants do. The implant is made of titanium, and it fuses to bone, creating a realistic-looking prosthetic that requires only a few surgical implants.
Each implant is made of titanium, and will fuse to your bone as if it was a part of it. The implant will secure into the jawbone and once it is fully healed it will stay there, as if it was a part of your body. You can chew your food with confidence, and not have to worry about the implant coming loose the way that dentures might.
Implants are useful because they can help to prevent future bone loss in your jaw. This helps to ensure that you maintain a youthful facial structure, and it can also protect your oral health as well.
There is a healing time for dental implants, because the implant needs to fuse to the bone, and your gums need to heal fully, before you can get the crowns fitted. This will require you to make a few trips to the dentist, but it will be well worth it to ensure that your smile looks and feels as good as possible. You will be given aftercare instructions to help the implant heal, and if you follow those properly it will increase the chances of the surgery being a success.
With most temporary dentures, wearers have to struggle every day to keep them in their mouths. They are usually not very aesthetically pleasing, and they interfere with everyday activities like eating and talking. Fortunately, hybrid dentures can provide a solution for this discomfort.
Hybrid dentures solve this problem by combining the shape of the temporary type with metal implants rather than adhesives. Metal implants are inserted into the jawbone through the patient’s gums and serve as an apparatus for the dentures to attach to. In most cases, these dentures are attached permanently by the dentist and can be removed but only by the professional.
Generally, it takes four implants in order to properly secure these dentures. After proper consultations, they can be installed in just one visit. Healing usually takes another four to six months, at which time the final product will be attached permanently.
Hybrid Dentures never shift around so the wearer appears more natural with them in. Whether they’re eating, laughing or just talking, hybrid dentures give the wearer the comfort and confidence they deserve.
