Your Chance to Smile Confidently Again
The elderly population is rapidly growing; nearly 27% of adults aged 75 and older are without natural teeth (edentulous). Many turn to dental bridges and dentures for tooth replacement; however, the American Academy of Implant Dentistry reports that more than 15 million Americans have bridgework replaced each year. This number is causing an increase in the demand for dental implants – a permanent tooth replacement solution. Working with board-certified oral surgeons in the area, Dr. Sy offers patients the chance to smile confidently again without enduring regular replacements over time. If you would like to know more about dental implants, call our office today.

What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are a permanent form of oral rehabilitation that can improve function and aesthetics for potentially a lifetime. Made of titanium, these posts mimic the work of natural tooth roots once placed within the jawbone, stimulating the area to prevent tooth and bone loss over time. They can be topped with dental crowns, bridges, or dentures, and they can restore almost all of your bite force, allowing you to eat more of the foods you love.
The 4-Step Dental Implant Process
We only work with the best board-certified surgeons in the area who have received formal specialty training in implant surgery. Proper technique and surgical planning are paramount in ensuring your implant is placed in the ideal position.
After your implant is fully integrated into your jaw, we use parts manufactured directly by the implant company to create your restoration. We then cast those parts to be customized to your gum architecture because we understand the biological and mechanical forces at play that affect the longevity of your dental implant.
Benefits of Dental Implants
The benefits of dental implants cannot be overlooked, as they offer advantages that cannot be achieved with dental bridges or dentures. As the only root-to-crown solution available, it is believed that more than 5 million implants are placed each year in the U.S. Their stability and longer lifespan make them attractive options for patients suffering from tooth loss, and they remain highly effective in reducing treatment costs associated with common health conditions, like diabetes, osteoporosis, and cardiovascular disease.
