Dental Implants

A dental implant replaces the root of a missing tooth and is made from surgical-grade titanium to exacting specifications, under sterile conditions. The implant is placed into the jawbone either immediately after the loss of a tooth, or after an extended period of time. If there is insufficient bone, various bone enhancing procedures can be performed prior to the implant placement. 

Modern surgical techniques for implant placement make it no more traumatic than a routine extraction.

There are many ways to utilize dental implants to replace missing teeth. A single crown can be made to go on one implant to replace a single missing tooth. Two implants can be used to support a 3 tooth fixed bridge to replace 3 missing teeth. Anywhere from 3 – 10 implants can be utilized to restore an entire jaw with a full set of teeth.

Dental Implants can be used to securely stabilize full or partial dentures. There are many ways to use implants to improve your ability to chew as well as your appearance.

Implants are an increasingly popular alternative to dentures, crowns and bridges. They have many advantages, including their natural appearance, improved comfort and unequaled convenience.  If you are considering dental implants, call our Schenectady dental office.
