Dental implants are titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone beneath your gums. Once in place, they allow your dentist to mount replacement teeth onto them.
Because implants fuse to your jawbone, they provide stable support for artificial teeth. Dentures and bridges mounted to implants won't slip or shift in your mouth — an especially important benefit when eating and speaking.
Benefits:
- Look and function like your natural teeth
- Can last a lifetime with proper care
- Prevent bone loss and preserve facial structure
- Don't require altering adjacent teeth
- Improve appearance, comfort, and speech
All-on-Four and All-on-Six are revolutionary concepts that allow for a full arch of teeth to be supported on just four or six dental implants. This technique provides patients with a fixed full-arch prosthesis on the day of surgery.
The procedure gets its name from the fact that four or six implants support a full arch of teeth. The implants are strategically placed to maximize support and minimize the need for bone grafting.
Benefits:
- Entire arch of teeth replaced with just 4-6 implants
- Often eliminates the need for bone grafting
- Shorter treatment time compared to traditional implants
- Immediate function with temporary prosthesis
- More comfortable and stable than removable dentures
Veneers are thin, custom-made shells crafted of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front surface of teeth. They're bonded to the front of the teeth, changing their color, shape, size, or length.
Porcelain veneers resist stains better than resin veneers and better mimic the light-reflecting properties of natural teeth. They're an excellent solution for teeth that are discolored, worn down, chipped, misaligned, uneven, or have gaps between them.
Benefits:
- Natural-looking, beautiful results
- Stain-resistant surface
- Minimal tooth preparation required
- Can correct multiple cosmetic issues at once
- Long-lasting with proper care (10-15 years)
