Implant Stabilized Dentures

Dental Implants have changed the way patients have to cope with the loss of teeth. A dental implant is the most effective and long-lasting way to replace missing or broken-down teeth. They look and feel natural giving you your confidence back.

Dental implants are a replacement for tooth roots and are made of titanium.
They are placed into the bone and allowed to heal while the implant fuses to the bone.
A crown is then placed on top of the implant and is secured.

The Good News...

One of the best things about dental implants is that they reduce the bone loss that occurs when a tooth is lost. When the implant fuses with the bone it prevents the bone from shrinking. Dental implants are highly successful and even more important, affordable.

The Procedure is usually very simple:

A small hole is drilled into the bone.
Titanium screw is inserted.
Implant is allowed to heal for several weeks, during which time the screw fuses with the bone.
Follow up visit where the doctor will examine the implant area and make sure the tissue and bone have healed properly. Impressions are taken for the crown.
In a second procedure, the artificial tooth is placed on top of the implant itself. There is no healing time for the second procedure.
