Why You Should Choose Implants

Dental implants can make your dream smile a reality. They're incredibly durable and are built to last for years, with the proper care, of course. Beyond their durability, implants are also all about improving your quality of life. They restore your ability to eat your favorite foods without discomfort and can enhance your speech clarity.

Am I a Good Candidate?

Patients of all ages can explore the possibility of dental implants. But, generally, you will need to have good oral health and adequate bone density to support implants. If you have existing dental issues, we could possibly develop a treatment plan to help you achieve the standard of oral health needed to support implants. The best way to find out if you're a good candidate is to schedule a consultation with our experienced dental team. Dr. Mehta will perform a thorough examination to discuss your treatment options.

Our Dental Implant Process

Getting dental implants is a big step, which is why we want to support you through the process. While your journey will involve a few appointments before you see the results, the results are well worth it! First, Dr. Mehta will start by assessing your oral health to check if you’re a good candidate for implants. If you are, he’ll move forward with creating your personalized treatment plan. The next step will be to place your implant, which is essentially a small titanium post that acts as a tooth root. After you have healed, you’ll visit us again to have your abutment attached, and then your custom-made crown, bridge, or denture will be placed.

Choosing Implants as Your Smile’s New Foundation

• They preserve your jawbone! When you lose a tooth, the bone in your jaw can start to deteriorate. If it does, dental implants become artificial tooth roots, which help stimulate your jaw bone and prevent loss.
• They’re incredibly versatile. Whether you're missing one tooth or several, there's an implant solution for you. From single-tooth implants to implant-supported dentures, we can tailor treatments to your needs.
• They let you enjoy food without restrictions. Dental implants restore function to your mouth, which lets you effortlessly enjoy foods that you may have had trouble eating with your missing teeth.
• They’re a long-term investment in your oral health. While the initial cost of implants are higher than other restorations, they will save you money in the long run by preventing the need for additional dental work.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long will my dental implants last?

Implants are designed to be a long-term solution. With the right care and regular check-ups with Dr. Mehta, they can last for many years (and sometimes even a lifetime.)

Will my procedure be painful?

Our patients report minimal discomfort during and after their procedure thanks to our anesthesia options, which help give you a more comfortable experience. While you may experience some soreness or swelling after your procedure, your discomfort can be easily managed with over-the-counter medication.

Do I need bone grafting for dental implants?

If your jawbone doesn’t have sufficient density to support a dental implant, you might first need bone grafting. During grating, we add bone tissue to your jaw area to promote implant stability. Dr. Mehta will be able to determine whether or not you need bone grafting during your first consultation.

How long does the dental implant process take?

Your entire process will take a few month since your bone will need to properly heal to ensure implant success. However, your specific timeline will differ depending on your unique smile.
