Dental Implants
Dental implants are a modern and effective solution for replacing missing teeth. They offer a durable, natural-looking alternative to traditional dentures or bridges.
Dental implants are titanium posts that are surgically placed into your jawbone. Over time, these posts fuse with your bone in a process called osseointegration, creating a strong and stable foundation for replacing missing teeth.
Dental implants can provide a lifetime of benefits. If you are missing teeth, dental implants may be a great option for you. Contact our office today!
Zirconia for Implant Dentures
Zirconia is a popular material used for dental implant dentures. It's a highly durable and biocompatible ceramic that offers several advantages over traditional materials. Zirconia dentures are known for their strength, resistance to staining, and natural appearance. They can be customized to match the color and shape of your natural teeth, making them a popular choice for those seeking a discreet and aesthetically pleasing restoration. Talk to Dr. Jay Zimmerman to see if Zirconia is right for you.
Dental Bridges
Dental bridges are a type of dental restoration used to replace missing teeth. They are typically made from a combination of porcelain and metal, although all ceramic bridges are also available. Bridges are anchored to the teeth on either side of the missing tooth or teeth, providing a stable and natural-looking replacement.
Types of dental bridges include:
- Traditional bridges: These bridges consist of a crown on each abutment tooth (the teeth on either side of the missing tooth) and a pontic (the artificial tooth) that fills in the gap.
- Cantilever bridges: These bridges are supported by only one abutment tooth, making them a good option for replacing a single tooth at the end of a dental arch.
- Maryland bridges: Also known as resin-bonded bridges, these bridges are made of porcelain or ceramic and are bonded to the back of the abutment teeth with dental resin.
- Implant-Supported bridges: These bridges anchor directly to your jawbone. This provides a more secure and durable foundation compared to traditional bridges, which are supported by natural teeth.
Dental bridges offer several benefits, including:
- Improved appearance: Bridges can significantly improve the appearance of your smile by filling in gaps caused by missing teeth.
- Improved function: Bridges can help you chew and speak more easily.
- Preservation of jawbone: By replacing missing teeth, bridges can help prevent jawbone deterioration.
If you are missing teeth, a dental bridge may be a good option for you. Your dentist can help you determine the best type of bridge for your specific needs.
Implant-Supported Dentures
Implant-supported dentures are a type of denture that is anchored to dental implants, providing a more secure and stable fit compared to traditional dentures. This type of denture is especially beneficial for people who have difficulty wearing traditional dentures due to poor jawbone density or other factors.
Implant-supported dentures work through the following steps:
- Implant Placement: Dental implants are surgically placed into the jawbone.
- Osseointegration: The implants fuse with the jawbone over time, creating a strong foundation.
- Attachment of Denture: A denture is then attached to the implants using special connectors or attachments.
Benefits of implant-supported dentures include:
- Improved Stability: Implant-supported dentures are much more stable than traditional dentures, which can slip or shift.
- Enhanced Comfort: The secure fit of implant-supported dentures can provide greater comfort and confidence.
- Improved Chewing and Speech: Implant-supported dentures can help you eat and speak more easily.
- Preservation of Jawbone: Unlike traditional dentures, implant-supported dentures help to preserve your jawbone, preventing facial sagging.
If you are considering dentures, implant-supported dentures may be a great option for you. They offer a more secure, comfortable, and natural-looking solution compared to traditional dentures.
All-On-4® Implants

This innovative treatment provides a stable and comfortable solution for people who have lost all of their teeth in a specific arch. All-on-4® dentures offer several benefits, including improved function, aesthetics, and comfort. Contact our office to see if All-On-4® dentures are right for you.
