Implants Make New Teeth a Reality

For thousands of years, humans have been devising methods to replace missing teeth. It wasn’t until the 1960s that the first modern implant was successfully placed in a dental patient. Since then, dental implant technology has grown by leaps and bounds and implants have become an important part of restorative dentistry. They are now the preferred method of tooth replacement.

If you are interested in implants, Dr. Borker will refer you to a trusted oral surgeon or periodontist. They will plan your procedure and place the implants into your jawbone. After you have had a chance to heal, you will return to our office for your new teeth. That’s when Dr. Borker will secure your restorations to your implants. Below are some of your options:

  • Dental Implant-Crown Combination – A single implant and crown will restore one missing tooth.
  • Implant-Supported Bridge – This type of bridge is anchored to dental implants to fill in smile gaps. With implants, you don’t have to remove structure from healthy teeth to support your bridge.
  • Implant-Retained Dentures – Your new dentures will stay in place with a snap-and-ball system attached to implants. Since you will avoid bone loss in your jaw, your dentures won’t loosen over time.
  • Implant-Supported Dentures – Your teeth will anchor to a sturdy bar that is attached to implants. These dentures give you chewing power similar to natural teeth.
  • All-on-4® Dental Implants – Get a full arch of fixed teeth using just four implants. After they are placed, Dr. Borker will anchor your full arch teeth replacements to your implants. He works closely with a lab on the creation of your new teeth, ensuring you get the results you want.
  • Same-Day Smile – This innovative procedure lets you get new implants and teeth on the same day.

Common Questions About Dental Implants

What are dental implants?

Modern dental implants function as artificial roots for replacement teeth. Implants are anchored directly in your jawbone, like the roots of natural teeth are. Your jaw bonds to the implants to keep them securely in place. This provides a stable support system for crowns, bridges, or dentures. Implants also stimulate your jawbone, reducing your risk of bone loss, which is common after someone loses teeth.

Can dental implants be removed?

Dental implants could be removed, although it is not likely you would need to do so. Once your implants are placed in your jawbone, they will fuse with the bone and last for decades, if not a lifetime. Your replacement teeth attached to the implants will last five to 10 years on average.

When should I get dental implants?

If you are missing any number of teeth, you owe it to yourself to consider getting implants. They are designed to function as artificial roots for your replacement teeth. Implants make crowns, bridges, and dentures more secure. They prevent bone loss by stimulating your jaw, and they restore your biting power so you can eat anything you want.

How much do dental implants cost?

The cost for dental implant treatment can vary widely depending on the number of implants you need, their location, and the condition of your mouth. The only way to get a good idea of your cost would be to schedule an initial exam and consultation. We’ll also take detailed images to help plan your treatment.
