By administering safe sedation medications, we can help those patients achieve a deeply relaxed state in which they cannot feel any pain or discomfort.

Dental Implant Tooth Replacement Options for Every Smile

Dental implants are a permanent solution to missing teeth. They restore the look, feel and function of a natural, healthy tooth.

With the proper oral hygiene and routine professional care, dental implants can last a lifetime.

Benefits of Dental Implants

Improved confidence: Replacing a missing tooth with a dental implant allows you to recapture a complete, healthy-looking smile and maintain a youthful appearance. You no longer need to feel self-conscious, anxious or depressed about gaps in your smile. Instead, you can feel confident and comfortable in your own skin.

Improved function: Implants are incredibly strong and can withstand normal biting or chewing forces. You can bite into a crisp apple or eat a delicious steak without worrying about your implant loosening or shifting around in your mouth. Implants do not restrict your speech in any way.

Improved oral health: Implants promote oral health in many ways. As you bite and chew on your implant, the titanium post provides the same bone stimulation as a natural tooth root; this keeps your jawbone healthy and strong, and prevents complications such as bone loss and premature aging of the facial features. Replacing a missing tooth with an implant also prevents the remaining teeth from shifting around in the mouth, wearing down or becoming crooked.

Versatility: Dental implants can replace one or all of the teeth in your mouth. They can serve as anchors for dental crowns, dental bridges or partial or complete dentures.
