Am I a candidate for dental implants?

Candidates for dental implants typically need to have good oral health and sufficient bone density in the jaw to support the implants. However, even if you have gum disease or a thinner jawbone, various techniques, such as bone grafting or sinus lifts, may be utilized to make implant placement possible.

What dental procedures can improve the appearance of my smile?

Cosmetic dentistry offers several procedures to enhance the aesthetics of your smile. Some common treatments include teeth whitening, veneers, dental bonding, enamel shaping, and gum contouring. Each procedure addresses specific cosmetic concerns, such as stains, chips, gaps, or misshapen teeth.

How long does a dental implant procedure take?

The duration of a dental implant procedure varies depending on factors like the number of implants needed, the complexity of the case, and the patient's healing capacity. In some cases, same-day placement may be possible. In others, the process involves multiple stages and may take several months from the initial consultation to the final placement of the artificial teeth.

Can I whiten my teeth if I have dental restorations, such as crowns or veneers?

Teeth whitening treatments primarily work on natural tooth enamel and may not have a significant effect on dental restorations. If you have restorations that no longer match the desired tooth shade, your dentist may recommend alternative treatments, such as replacing the restorations or exploring other cosmetic options.

Are dental implants painful?

The implant placement procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia, ensuring that you won't feel any pain during the surgery. Post-surgery discomfort can be managed with pain medications. Most patients report minimal pain during the recovery period, which can be alleviated with proper care and following the dentist's instructions.

Made from transparent, custom-fitted plastic, these aligners gradually shift the teeth into their desired position. Clear aligners provide a discreet and convenient option for individuals seeking orthodontic treatment without the visibility and inconvenience of metal braces.

Dental Crowns

Dental crowns, also known as dental caps, are tooth-shaped restorations used to encase a damaged or weakened tooth. They serve to protect and restore the tooth's structure, providing strength, durability, and an improved appearance. Dental crowns are commonly used to restore teeth with extensive decay, fractures, or after root canal treatment. They are custom-made in our in-house lab to match the color, shape, and size of the natural teeth, providing a seamless and natural-looking result.

Dental Implants

Dental implants are prosthetic tooth roots that are surgically placed into the jawbone to support artificial teeth. They offer a long-lasting and effective solution for individuals with missing teeth. The implant itself is typically made of biocompatible materials like titanium, which fuse with the jawbone over time, creating a strong and stable foundation for the replacement tooth or dental bridge. Dental implants not only restore functionality but also enhance the appearance of the smile, promoting improved chewing ability, speech, and overall oral health.

Emergency

Emergency dentistry addresses urgent dental issues that require immediate attention. This includes severe toothaches, knocked-out or fractured teeth, abscesses, or injuries to the mouth and jaw. Dental emergencies can occur unexpectedly and often cause significant pain and discomfort. Seeking prompt, dental care is crucial to alleviate pain, prevent further damage, and ensure the best possible outcome, and we are able to offer our patients same-day treatment in many cases. Our dentists are trained to handle urgent dental situations and provide appropriate treatment, offering relief and restoring oral health.

Sedation Dentistry

Sedation dentistry, also known as sleep dentistry, uses medication to help patients relax during dental procedures, especially those with anxiety. The level of sedation is tailored to each patient, ranging from mild relaxation to deep unconsciousness. This approach improves the overall experience for patients and aids dentists in performing treatments more effectively. It's a vital tool in making dental care comfortable and accessible for a diverse range of individuals.

Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening is a popular cosmetic dental procedure that aims to brighten and enhance the color of natural teeth. It involves the use of bleaching agents, such as hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide, to eliminate stains and discoloration caused by factors like aging, consumption of certain foods and beverages, tobacco use, or poor oral hygiene. Implant Center's professional teeth whitening treatments can effectively lighten the shade of teeth, rejuvenating the smile and boosting confidence.

Veneers

Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells typically made of porcelain or composite resin that are bonded to the front surface of the teeth. They are used to improve the appearance of teeth affected by various cosmetic issues, such as discoloration, chipping, gaps, or misalignment. Veneers offer a versatile and conservative approach to achieve a naturally beautiful smile. They are durable, stain-resistant, and provide a realistic look by mimicking the translucency and texture of natural teeth. Veneers can transform the shape, size, and color of teeth, resulting in a more aesthetically pleasing and confident smile.

Wisdom Tooth Removal

Wisdom tooth removal, also known as third molar extraction, is a common dental procedure aimed at removing the third molars, or "wisdom teeth," located at the back of the mouth. Often necessary due to issues like impaction, overcrowding, or potential oral health complications, this procedure can prevent pain, infections, and damage to adjacent teeth. By undergoing wisdom tooth removal, individuals can ensure the long-term health of their oral cavity, alleviate discomfort, and avoid potential complications, ultimately promoting better overall dental well-being.
