Revitalize Your Smile With State-of-the-Art Dental Implants

April 30, 2024

Dental implants represent the most advanced system for replacing missing teeth, and they're available right here at Maspeth Dental - HL. While traditional fixed bridges and dentures can still be effective ways to replace missing teeth, dental implants come closer than ever before to replicating the natural look, feel, and function of a complete smile.

Discover the Advantages of Implant-Supported Restorations

With dental implants, you can enjoy all your favorite foods once again and speak and smile with newfound confidence. Because dental implants function much like natural tooth roots, they provide unmatched stability for a wide range of dental prostheses, including crowns, bridges, and even full sets of teeth. For patients who wear full dentures, dental implants also offer the added security needed to enhance comfort and fit while preventing any embarrassing slippage.

A Versatile Solution for Missing Teeth

Types of Dental Implants:

  • Single-tooth implant:

    When a single tooth is missing, a dental implant restored with a crown can closely replicate the appearance and function of a natural tooth. Unlike traditional fixed bridges, which require the preparation and crowning of adjacent teeth, a single-tooth implant stands on its own as a fully functional entity. This innovative solution allows you to restore your complete and attractive smile without compromising the integrity of any surrounding teeth.

  • Implant-supported fixed bridges:

    Unlike conventional fixed bridges, which rely on adjacent natural teeth for support, an implant-supported bridge is anchored to a select number of strategically placed dental implants. This approach not only preserves the health and integrity of your remaining natural teeth but also stimulates the surrounding bone tissue to maintain facial contours and prevent bone loss.

  • Full arch replacement with four or six implants:

    As an alternative to full dentures, a complete set of replacement teeth supported by four or six dental implants can reestablish a smile that looks, feels, and functions like a natural one. Unlike traditional dentures, this fixed solution eliminates the need for messy adhesives and time-consuming cleaning routines while providing unparalleled stability and comfort. With an attractive set of temporary teeth placed immediately following your implant surgery and a permanent set to follow once your implants fully integrate with the surrounding bone, you can enjoy a beautiful new smile in no time at all.

  • Implant-retained denture:

    An implant-retained denture attaches securely to a select number of strategically placed dental implants, providing added stability and retention for improved comfort and ease. This added level of security enables you to smile, speak, and eat with confidence while eliminating the need for messy denture adhesives or time-consuming cleaning routines.
