Implant Dentistry

Implant Dentistry

Dental implants are the safest, most advanced, durable tooth replacement system available today. They are an ideal method for filling the gap left by a tooth lost due to decay, trauma or gum disease. If you want a tooth replacement solution that offers a success rate higher than any other dental procedure, an implant is the perfect restorative option for you.

No other restoration can even approach the number of advantages offered by implants. They:

• Preserve your existing jawbone and gum tissue
• Prevent bone atrophy, maintaining your facial contours
• Conserve tooth structure, since no preparation of adjacent teeth is required
• Never develop decay and never require root canals on implants
• Are indistinguishable from your natural teeth
• Help you maintain ideal hygiene
• Maximize the function of your mouth

We use sophisticated 3-D imaging software to capture, analyze and diagnose the optimum location of your implant. Implants are especially helpful for denture wearers, restoring full bite pressure and dramatically improving your ability to chew and speak without concern for glues or adhesives.

Maintain the kind of lifestyle you've come to enjoy: call our periodontal specialists to prevent a missing tooth from becoming a much more adverse issue than it needs to be!

Smile! You Can Still Maintain Full Function

A missing tooth can significantly impact your lifestyle. It can impair function, preventing you from chewing on both sides of your mouth, causing jaw soreness, reducing bite pressure and altering your diet. To make sure none of that ever occurs, our Auburn periodontal specialists partner with your referring dentist to plan the treatment of your missing teeth.

Depending on the overall health of your gums and teeth, it can take anywhere from 3-6 months for your implant to integrate with your jaw bone. Once that foundation is established, typically in 3-4 months, your referring dentist will place a beautiful crown over the location that mimics the appearance of your original tooth.

For anterior incisors (your smiling teeth), we can also perform same-day implants - where you arrive at our office without a tooth and leave with a new one! We also offer IV sedation to completely clear your mind and body of any anxiety prior to the procedure.
