DENTAL IMPLANTS IN WALDORF
A permanent solution for missing teeth.
WHAT IS A DENTAL IMPLANT?
It's the next best thing to your natural tooth.
Are you missing one or more teeth? Dental implants may be your best solution to replace your missing teeth permanently.
A dental implant replaces your entire tooth from root to crown. It restores your smile’s function, allowing you to eat and speak normally. It also restores your smile’s beauty, seamlessly blending in with your natural teeth.
A dental implant restoration consists of:
- A small titanium post, which is placed in your jawbone and acts as the tooth root.
- An abutment, which attaches to the post and secures your crown restoration.
- A crown, the visible part of your new tooth, which is custom designed by Dr. Silberman to blend with your smile.
Aside from permanently replacing your missing tooth, a dental implant also has many other benefits.
THE BENEFITS OF DENTAL IMPLANTS
Replacing your missing tooth with a dental implant goes beyond your physical appearance. Here are some of the many benefits you can expect with dental implants:
DR. SILBERMAN'S APPROACH TO DENTAL IMPLANTS
Consultation
First, you will meet with Dr. Silberman to discuss your smile goals, ensure you are a candidate for dental implants, determine if this is your best option, and create a personalized treatment plan.
Implant Placement
To have the implant post placed, you will see one of our preferred periodontists or oral surgeons. Our dental team will stay in close contact to make sure everyone clearly understands what needs to be done to meet your expectations. Dr. Silberman will be available to you throughout the entire treatment.
Design the Crown
Once your implant post has fused with the bone and healed, typically in four months, it will be time to design your crown restoration. Dr. Silberman will take measurements for your new tooth and send the specifications to his preferred lab, which will make your crown restoration.
Your Restored Smile
Placing your crown restoration is as simple as screwing in a light bulb. Before you know it, you will have a brand new tooth to restore your smile’s function and beauty. Your dental implant will look and feel just like your other teeth – only you and Dr. Silberman will know you have a dental implant.
‘‘I feared dentists for years. But the fear is over. I have been going to this office for a couple of years and love everyone. From the front desk right down to Dr. Silberman, the atmosphere is VERY friendly and professional at all times. Keep up the great work.’’
