Dental implants can offer replacement teeth that look natural and even act like your regular teeth. In addition, our team can complete every step of this process in-house! In today’s blog, your Brooklyn, NY, periodontist and implant expert talks about how we start and finish your tooth replacement in one location, sometimes in only one visit! A full smile is within reach, and we are ready to help you.
Starting Your Tooth Replacement
In many practices, when the time comes for dental implant placement, you will need to travel to a separate office for the oral surgeon to complete the placement process. You then return to the initial office later for the restoration or prosthetic attachment. Our team is proud to be able to offer tooth replacement in one setting! From the initial exam and planning, to placement and even restoration, you will be able to receive every part of your tooth replacement in our office.
Your Dental Implant Options
Our team will begin by examining your smile. We want to understand the cause and severity of your tooth loss. In many cases, gum disease has caused the missing teeth and we can use periodontics to manage it and protect your smile from implant failure or further tooth loss. We can address an individual missing tooth, or use several implant posts to support a bridge or possibly a full set of new teeth. In fact, with options like All-On-Four, we can secure a full set of new implant-supported teeth in only one visit!
In some cases, you could have weakened jawbone structure due to time passing between your tooth loss and when you see us. But don’t worry, again we can help in-office with grafting or a sinus lift. With jawbone grafting, we add new structure to the lower jaw so that you can support one or more dental Implants. For the upper arch, we will raise the sinus floor to uncover new structures to support your new tooth or teeth.
Completing Your New Smile
What about the crowns and dentures that complete your smile again, we can custom-make these in our office, with in-house tools that can design and fabricate them with lifelike and durable materials, so you can enjoy your favorite foods again and smile with confidence. If you have any questions about how our team can secure a new smile with dental implants, and help you feel more confident in your appearance, then contact our office today to get started.
