How Dental Implants Work
Dental implants are a safe, effective and permanent way to replace one or more missing teeth. The implant is a small, titanium post placed into the jawbone. A custom-made porcelain tooth (or set of teeth) is attached to the implant. The final dental implant restorations will look completely natural and blend with your surrounding teeth.
Why Choose Dental Implants?
A missing tooth is the most obvious dental malformity, and often presents the dentist’s biggest technical challenge. Missing teeth can also undermine a person’s self-confidence and quality of life. Not only can missing teeth compromise eating habits, speech and appearance, the condition can also lead to bone loss in the jaw and the abnormal shifting of the other teeth, as well as bite problems. Missing teeth often causes the look of premature aging. While a removable partial can fill the space of the missing tooth, it cannot prevent bone loss or prevent teeth from shifting. Similarly, a bridge can also fill the space left behind but it cannot prevent bone loss and in the process of creating the bridge, surrounding teeth are damaged. At Premier Dental, Dr. Sanjeev Sharma has had great success in replacing missing teeth with dental implants. When performed correctly, dental implants have the highest success rate of any dental procedure.
Dental implants have become our favored way to replace missing teeth whenever possible. Acting as a substitute tooth root, implants bond with the bone to form a stable foundation for permanent replacement teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth. The dental implant actually helps preserve the bone by providing the stimulation that was previously provided by natural tooth roots. This also helps maintain the integrity of facial structures.

Mini Implants
Mini Implants are smaller implants used to stabilize dentures. The procedure stabilizes the existing lower or upper denture by anchoring it into place using the mini dental implants. The entire procedure can be completed in a matter of hours... with results that can be quite stunning. Patients can hardly believe the improvement in their abilities to eat, speak, laugh and smile. Mini Implants provide a lifetime solution to loose, wobbly dentures and bone loss that occurs with dentures alone. With your new stabilized dentures you will be able to laugh, eat and talk again…… just like you did with your natural teeth! Call us today at Premier Dental to schedule your FREE consultation.
