Dental Implants

This is an option for many of our patients who have lost a tooth or teeth due to periodontal disease, an injury, or some other reason. The dental implant holds the replacement tooth or bridge. Schedule a consultation today.

Endosteal (dental implant in the bone): This is the most commonly used dental implant for our patients. Each implant holds one or more prosthetic teeth. We use these implants for our patients with bridges or removable dentures.
Subperiosteal (dental implant on the bone): The dental implants are placed on top of the jaw with metal framework posts. These dental implants can be a solution for patients unable to wear conventional dentures and who have minimal bone height.

In order to be a candidate for a dental implant you must be in good general and oral health. Adequate bone in your jaw is needed to support the implant, and the best dental patients have healthy gum tissues that are free of periodontal disease. Dental implants are directly connected with the gum tissues and underlying bone in the mouth. Since periodontists are the dental experts who specialize in precisely these areas, Periodontal Specialists Dr. David Barget and Dr. Lewis Robinson are your dental implant team. Not only they have the experience working with other dental professionals, they also have the special knowledge, training and expertise to create teeth that look and feel just like your own. See our dental implant before and after gallery. We work with your dentist and together can make your dreams come true.

This procedure is a team effort between you, your dentist and our experienced leading dental implant team. Dr. Robinson, Dr. Barget and your dentist will consult with you to determine where and how your implant should be placed. Depending on your specific condition and the type of implant chosen, we will create a treatment plan tailored to meet your needs.

Replacing a Single Tooth – If you are missing a single tooth, one implant and a crown can replace it. Replacing Multiple Teeth – If you are missing several teeth, implant-supported bridges can replace them. Replacing All of Your Teeth – If you are missing all of your teeth, an implant-supported full bridge or full denture can replace them.
