Cosmetic Dentistry, One of the first things people notice is your smile. If chipped, stained, or crooked teeth are "hiding" the real you, it's time for a smile makeover with our top cosmetic dentists. A beautiful smile can brighten your life every day, professionally and socially. And unlike plastic surgery, cosmetic dentistry isn't a major operation. Imagine coming in for a single appointment or two and emerging with the smile you've always wanted...no pain, no strain, no time taken away from your busy life. The results are immediate and dramatic. Implants, If you are missing one or more teeth, you'll want replacements that are as natural as possible. If dentures don't work for you, you may want to consider dental implants.

Unlike dentures, which can be removed, implants are permanently anchored into the jaw itself. You are a good candidate for dental implants if you have jawbone ridges that are in good shape and healthy oral tissues. When the implant device is inserted into the jaw, a chemical and mechanical bond is formed. The jawbone actually grows into the implant. With dental implants, you get a perfect fit, and they will look and feel as good as (or better than!) your original teeth. A dental implant is a titanium metal replacement for a root of a tooth that is surgically implanted in the jawbone. An important factor for selection is to determine whether your jawbone can adequately support the implant.

Most dental implants placed today are endosteal root form fixtures (similar to a man-made tooth root). When getting dental implants, you should select a dentist or dental team with in-depth knowledge and prior experience with all aspects of the treatment. Our practice has this expertise. Traditionally, a dental surgeon, like an oral surgeon or a periodontist, performs the surgical component. A general dentist, or prosthodontist and laboratory technician performs the restorative component. However, as implant dentistry has become more sophisticated, sometimes a dentist who specializes in restorative dentistry conducts the entire procedure.
