What are Dental Implants?

More than 3 million Americans have dental implants, and that number continues to grow each year. Dental implants are a natural-looking restoration option for missing or damaged teeth, crafted to match the look and feel of your teeth.

The implant attachment acts as a tooth’s root to secure your implant through a process called osseointegration. This is when the implant fuses with your jawbone to create a stable foundation for the prosthetic tooth.

Unlike traditional tooth replacements, dental implants are surgically placed and preserve the health of neighboring teeth by eliminating the need for bridges. They provide much-needed stimulation to the jawbone, preventing bone resorption and deterioration.

Single-Tooth Replacement

Our single dental implant restorations are designed to permanently replace any missing teeth while functioning like your natural teeth. Made of biocompatible titanium, a dental implant integrates with your jawbone, providing stable and long-lasting support for a new crown.

Using CBCT technology, Dr. Sheehan can design a customized treatment plan from 3D images of your mouth — resulting in a restoration that is nearly identical to your missing tooth

Multi-Tooth Replacement

Unlike traditional bridges that are attached to neighboring teeth, our implant-supported bridges are anchored directly to the jaw. Implant-supported bridges are easy to care for — you can floss and brush them just like your natural teeth.

Benefits of implant-supported bridges:

  • Restores multiple teeth
  • Looks better than traditional bridges
  • Enhances jaw strength
  • Allows you to eat your favorite foods
  • Boosts your confidence

Full Arch Replacement

Our full-arch replacements are comfortable, stable, and functional. They don’t require any adhesives — so you can forget about the soreness and discomfort of traditional dentures.

During this process, Dr. Sheehan will attach multiple implants that will further support a stable, fixed, arch-bridge. Since your full-arch replacement is held together by implants, you can rest assured that you’ll be able to eat, speak, and smile without a second thought.

Alternative Tooth Replacement Options

Though dental implants are the most effective restoration option, it’s important to understand each option before making a decision. Dr. Sheehan offers tooth replacement alternatives for patients seeking traditional treatment options.

Dentures

Dentures are a cost-effective, traditional treatment option for replacing teeth and improving the appearance of your smile. They can restore oral function by either replacing an entire arch or smile. Plus dentures are removable, allowing patients to take them out for daily cleaning and oral hygiene.

Bridges

For individuals missing multiple teeth, bridges work by anchoring to healthy neighboring teeth which creates stability and improves oral function. They’re extremely durable and made to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth — allowing patients to have confidence in their smile.
