Dental Implants
In Middletown, CT

A missing tooth doesn't have to hold you back. Dental implants can boost your confidence and improve your overall oral health. With an implant, you'll regain full functionality, allowing you to eat, laugh, and speak without hesitation.

Why should I choose dental implants?

Choosing dental implants isn't just about filling a gap in your smile — it's about reclaiming your confidence and oral health. Implants are designed to look, feel, and function just like your natural teeth. Unlike removable options, implants become a permanent part of your mouth, anchoring directly into your jawbone. This means you can eat, speak, and laugh without worry. They also help maintain your facial structure and prevent bone loss, which is a common issue after tooth loss. While implants might seem like a bigger investment upfront, their durability and the long-term benefits to your oral health make them a smart choice. If you're tired of dealing with the hassles of missing teeth or ill-fitting dentures, implants could be the life-changing solution you've been looking for.

The Benefits of Dental Implants

Natural Feel and Function

Dental implants closely replicate your natural teeth, allowing you to brush, floss, and eat with ease.

Aesthetically Pleasing

Each implant is tailored to match your existing teeth in shape, size, and color. This personalized approach ensures that your new tooth blends in naturally with your smile.

Preserves Oral Health

Made from biocompatible titanium, dental implants integrate with your jawbone, stimulating it much like natural tooth roots. This unique feature helps prevent bone loss and maintains your facial structure, contributing to long-term oral health.

The Implant Treatment Process

Placement

Placement

Once we've confirmed your treatment plan, we'll schedule your oral surgery and walk you through the procedure. During the surgery, we make a precise incision in your gum and carefully place the dental implant into your jawbone. We then thoroughly clean the area and apply sutures to promote healing. This step sets the foundation for your new tooth.

Healing & Osseointegration

Healing & Osseointegration

Healing begins immediately after implant placement. The incision site typically heals within 1-2 weeks, but the full integration of the implant with your jawbone (osseointegration) takes about 3-6 months. We'll schedule regular check-ups during this period to monitor your progress and ensure everything is healing as expected.

Applying the Restoration

Applying the Restoration

The final phase is restoration. We create a custom dental crown designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. This crown is then securely attached to an abutment on your implant. With this step complete, your smile is fully restored!
