Conveniently located near the Cherry Creek Mall and Colorado Boulevard, we’re proud to serve patients from Glendale, Cherry Creek, and the surrounding Denver areas.

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are a long-lasting, reliable option for replacing missing teeth. An implant is a small titanium post that is surgically placed into your jawbone, acting as a sturdy foundation for a replacement tooth or teeth. Over time, the implant integrates with your jawbone in a process called osseointegration, creating a secure and stable anchor for your restoration.

Once the implant has fully healed, a custom crown, bridge, or denture is attached to it, providing a natural look and feel that functions just like a real tooth.

The Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental implants offer several significant advantages over other tooth replacement options, such as bridges or dentures. Here are some reasons why more patients are choosing dental implants:

  • Natural Appearance: Implants are custom-designed to match the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth, ensuring they blend seamlessly into your smile.
  • Improved Functionality: Because implants are anchored to your jawbone, they provide excellent stability for eating and speaking without worrying about slipping or discomfort.
  • Prevents Bone Loss: When a tooth is lost, the jawbone begins to deteriorate over time. Implants help to preserve and stimulate the bone, preventing bone loss and maintaining the structure of your face.
  • Durability and Longevity: With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. They are made from strong, durable materials designed to withstand the forces of chewing and everyday use.
  • No Special Maintenance: Unlike removable dentures, implants require no special cleaning routines. You care for them just like your natural teeth with regular brushing, flossing, and dental checkups.

Are dental implants painful?

Most patients report that getting dental implants is less painful than they expected. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so you won’t feel any pain during the surgery. After the procedure, mild discomfort can be managed with over-the-counter pain medications.

How long do dental implants last?

With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. The implants themselves are made from titanium, which integrates with the bone and provides a strong, permanent foundation for the replacement tooth.

How much do dental implants cost?

The cost of dental implants can vary depending on the number of implants and the complexity of the case. During your consultation, we’ll provide a detailed estimate and discuss financing options to ensure that you get the care you need within your budget.

Am I a good candidate for dental implants?

Most patients with good oral health and sufficient bone density are candidates for dental implants. If you’ve experienced bone loss, bone grafting may be necessary to support the implant. We’ll evaluate your case during your consultation to determine if implants are right for you.

What is the recovery time for dental implants?

After the implant is placed, most patients can return to their normal routine within a day or two. The healing process (osseointegration) typically takes several months, after which the final restoration can be attached.

Do dental implants require special care?

No special care is needed for dental implants. You’ll care for them just like your natural teeth by brushing, flossing, and visiting your dentist regularly for checkups and cleanings.
