Dental Implants Specialist

What are dental implants?

Dental implants at Jamison Innovative Dentistry are metal tooth roots that anchor artificial teeth and replace missing permanent teeth. The implants attach to crowns, dental bridges, or dentures to give you the gorgeous smile you deserve. 

What are the benefits of dental implants?

Some of the many benefits you can reap by choosing dental implants at the Jamison Innovative Dentistry team include:

• Strong, durable teeth
• No more tooth gaps
• Clearer speech
• Easier chewing
• Less adjacent teeth shifting 
• Beautiful smile
• Self-confidence 

Dental implants and the teeth to which they attach look, function, and feel just like natural permanent teeth. Dental implants can last a lifetime when cared for properly. 

Are dental implants right for me?

To find out if you’re a candidate for dental implants at Jamison Innovative Dentistry, your dentist discusses your desired outcome and oral health history with you. They take dental X-rays if needed and examine your teeth and gums before personalizing a cosmetic dental plan that’s best for you. 

If you don’t have enough jawbone to support dental implants, you might first need a bone grafting procedure. 

What happens when getting dental implants?

The process of getting dental implants involves multiple steps. The Jamison Innovative Dentistry team numbs the treatment area and inserts dental implants into your jawbone during your first visit. They wait for the bone to heal around the implants to secure them in place.

After the implants heal, your dentist digitally scans your mouth, which allows a dental lab to develop custom-fitted crowns, bridges, or dentures. When your new teeth are ready, they securely attach them to the implants and make sure your new teeth fit properly and comfortably.

How can I take good care of my dental implants?

Take good care of your new dental implants by flossing every day, brushing your teeth after meals, and not chewing on hard objects. See the Jamison Innovative Dentistry team every six months for dental exams and cleanings and call the office if your implants get damaged.
