Dental Implants

Seamless dental implants

If you have missing teeth but are looking for a more permanent option other than dentures or bridgework, implants might be right for you.

What are Dental Implants?

Dental Implants are artificial teeth that are surgically grafted into your existing gum line. The teeth are the best permanent replacement option for missing teeth.

Do I need dental implants?

Our dental experts are here to help you make the best choice for your current situation and see if dental implants are right for you. There are multiple options for replacing missing teeth, such as full or partial dentures, or custom bridgework. The benefit of dental implants is that they look and feel like your real teeth. Dental implants can be used to replace a single tooth or multiple teeth, including a full set.

However, they are often the more expensive option for teeth replacement. Access Dental believes that cost should not be a barrier to receiving the best in dental care and we do offer flexible payment options. Contact us at any of our convenient office locations and we’ll schedule a free consultation to evaluate your smile, review your restoration options, and help you find the right solution to meet your unique oral healthcare needs.

How it works

Dental implants do require surgery to properly install. It may also be necessary to graft bone into place and replace your own decayed or damaged jawbone. Once the anchors are set, temporary teeth are placed over the anchors. These will remain in place while your jaw heals, and the anchors set. After a few months, your permanent teeth will be created and installed on the anchors.

How do I care for my implants?

Cared for properly, your implants will last a lifetime. You will care for your implants as you do your existing teeth, by regular brushing, flossing, and staying up to date with your examinations.
