Are You Looking For A New Dentist?

We’re concerned about the overall health of our patients, including their sleep health. Many suffer needlessly from dangerous sleep-disrupting disorders that keep them from getting enough oxygen at night. People with sleep disorders are 23 times more likely to suffer a heart attack, while 92% of stroke victims are unaware of this condition before they have a stroke. We’re trained to offer you education and treatment surrounding sleep health in the simplest and most cost-effective way possible.

Why would a Dental Implant be needed?

We typically recommend dental implants to patients who are missing their natural teeth. Rather than feel badly about your smile or having to resort to wearing a partial denture, an implant can be placed into the underlying jawbone. Implants are often considered permanent because they actually bond with the jawbone over the course of just a few months. You’ll love having a full, healthy smile thanks to implant technology.

What makes someone a candidate for a Dental Implant?

The best way to determine if implants are right for you is to start with an exam and series of x-rays. There is no age limit when it comes to who would benefit from this restoration in our office. In order for dental implants to work for you, you need enough bone in the area where they’ll be placed. A bone grafting can be done on patients who are missing bone.

What can be expected during Dental Implant treatment?

First, we numb the area that will be worked on. We then make a small incision through the gums to place the titanium implant post. This is done using special tools and techniques. The implant is embedded deep into the jawbone and we’ll provide you with instructions on how to care for the area while it heals. You can expect the implant to heal in roughly six months. Once healed, we’ll make a special crown that fits over the implant’s abutment to finish off your smile.
