| Implants |
Implants have become the most natural, reliable and problem free methods of permanently replacing missing teeth.
The success rate for implants currently averages around 95%. The implant procedure involves placing a titanium
anchor into the missing tooth area. Your jaw bone will actually grow into the implant resulting in a very strong artificial
root. We then screw a post into your new root and cement a very natural looking porcelain crown on top. The implant
process is not painful at all, and is often less expensive than permanent bridges over time.

Some other examples of implant cases follow:
3 implants placed in the bottom right of this patient's mouth replaced 6 missing teeth. Not only is the
appearance great, but his chewing efficiency is similar to his natural teeth. Click on the pictures to enlarge.
This patient had 3 implants to replaced 3 missing top teeth. 2 on the upper right and 1 in the front.
2 other teeth had crowns done at the same time. Note the extremely natural result after the 2 regular crowns
and 3 implant crowns were completed.

A typical implant procedure is demonstrated here. This patient is missing her lower left first and second molars
The first step is the placement of the implants into the area of the missing teeth by a surgeon.
The implant resembles a molly screw or wall anchor. See the two implants on the x-ray.
Here are the 2 implants in the mouth Our laboratory then fabricates the implant posts
which we screw into the implants in the mouth.

The final crowns are cemented in the mouth. They look
and function just like natural teeth.

Implants are becoming the standard for replacing missing teeth. This implant system
has color coded components making restoration simpler and more predictable than ever.

This patient was missing her right top teeth and was
using a removable partial denture to replace them.
Three implants allowed us to replace all five missing
teeth. She has a beautiful natural smile, and can eat
again comfortably.
