Implant dentistry makes remarkable smile restorations possible. For those affected by tooth loss, we can secure prostheses with biocompatible materials that imitate the natural support of a tooth’s root. Implants can provide cosmetic value as well as oral health benefits like better bite stability and the preservation of jawbone density. From your initial evaluation until restoring your full smile is complete, we perform all services in-house to make your care convenient and comfortable. The following treatments are available to those in need of prosthetic dental work:
Implant Dentistry
These different services help us personalize dental work for patients affected by different forms of tooth loss:
Implant Placement And Restoration
In-office implant placement surgery and smile restoration with a custom prosthetic appliance is available at our practice. Our practice offers different treatment options to provide a tailored prosthodontic experience and fantastic outcomes for patients looking to restore incomplete smiles.
All-on-4 Implant Dentures
A sequence of four carefully placed dental implants can provide security for a custom denture that is fixed in place. Having a permanent denture removes concerns about slipping, discomfort, and bite difficulties. We have the experience and technology to provide you with this full replacement dental arch through treatments at our office.
Same Day Implants
Also known as immediate-load implants, this treatment enables our team to place your dental implant and secure it with a temporary tooth in one visit. This can be an ideal option for someone who qualifies and wants to see their smile restored as soon as possible.
Support Services
These services help patients qualify for implant treatment and prepare for successful work to restore their incomplete smiles:
Ridge Augmentation And Sinus Lift
After tooth loss, jawbone tissues lose density, leading to cosmetic and oral health concerns as well as complications for prosthodontic work. If our evaluation of your oral structures raises concerns, ridge augmentation for lower jaw support and sinus lift procedures to strengthen and add material to the upper jaw can prepare you to support dental implants. Based on your needs and history with tooth loss, we can discuss the need for one or both services.
Ridge/Socket Preservation
In the time between a tooth extraction and replacement, the socket that housed your tooth’s roots can go through changes that complicate treatment plans. Ridge preservation (also known as socket preservation) is a grafting treatment that preserves the structure so that you are ready to undergo a dental implant placement procedure. Making this procedure a part of your tooth extraction plan can prevent worries over alveolar ridge contraction, a natural bodily response, but one that affects the area where your implant will need to be placed.
State-of-the-art Technology
Advanced technology assists with preliminary reviews before dental implant placement can aid in periodontics too. Using an I-Cat CT scanning, we can thoroughly evaluate the nerves and bone structures beneath the gums to make a determination on the precise location and angle of your dental implant. Our team utilizes Dexis digital x-rays, using a fraction of the radiation and obtains images instantly chairside without the need for bitewings. Our 3shape Trios scanner also provides unrivaled precision for planning treatment and tooth replacement.
In addition, we can use the virtual implant placement (VIP) software to minimize the effects of oral surgery, and employ the Exocad computer generated implant guide that makes use of CT scans to assist with placement in more complex procedures. To create the custom restorations and prosthetics that complete your dental implants, we can use the SprintRay 3D printer, which completes fabrication in a single visit!
Technology has also affected how we repair deteriorated bone structure for patients who hope to qualify for prosthodontic care with dental implants. Regenerative technologies and bio-active modifiers like PRP Therapy, Gem 21, Pep-Gen, and Infuse promote healing and tissue restoration by using natural healing processes! To remove tissues and reshape the gum line, we can employ the Millenium Periolase and Biolase Waterlase systems to remove tissues and conduct soft tissue plastic surgery gently and effectively.
