How does it work?
Once you have had a thorough exam, we will discuss your treatment options. If we have decided that your teeth require removal, you may be interested in implants. You can have implants to support your new teeth. You may not even need to wear dentures – ever.
In one procedure we will take out your remaining teeth, place implants (4 to 6 in each jaw), and place a temporary implant bridge for each jaw. You will leave the office with your new implant bridges – they look just like teeth.

Expect several follow up visits and a soft food diet for the next 3 to 4 months. After that time, we make your final implant bridges. This healing period is designed to allow the implants to fuse to the bone and your gums to heal. It allows us to make any needed changes to the teeth for the best cosmetic outcome. The temporary implant bridges prevent you from needing to wear a removable denture.
