Your Dream Smile in 4 easy steps

1

Surgical Placement of Titanium Implant
A titanium screw is surgically placed into the jawbone by Dr. Wong-Sang Lee, a skilled oral surgeon at the Aesthetic Dental Centers. This serves as the foundation for the tooth replacement solution.

2

Osseointegration
After placement, the implant undergoes a natural process called osseointegration, during which it fuses with the jawbone. This creates a stable and durable base for the artificial tooth.

3

Attachment of Custom-Made Abutment
Following successful osseointegration, a custom-made abutment is attached to the implant. The abutment serves as a connector between the implant and the final crown.

4

Placement of the Final Crown
The procedure is completed by attaching a custom-designed crown to the abutment. The general dentist ensures the crown matches the shape, color, and size of your natural teeth for a seamless and aesthetic appearance.

Dental Implants Explained

Dental implants are a powerful solution for preserving jawbone health and preventing bone loss. Unlike other tooth replacement options, implants act like natural tooth roots, stimulating the jawbone to maintain its strength and structure. This prevents bone resorption and creates a stable, long-lasting foundation that feels and functions just like natural teeth.

For those missing multiple teeth, dental implants play an even bigger role. They help prevent issues like muscle loss, facial collapse, wrinkles, and a sunken appearance, which often result from unchecked bone loss. By supporting the facial structure, dental implants not only restore your smile but also protect your overall facial aesthetics.

With their natural functionality and ability to maintain bone and facial structure, dental implants offer a comprehensive solution that goes beyond just replacing teeth—they help you look and feel your best for years to come.

Unlike dental bridges, this tooth replacement option offers unique advantages that protect your natural teeth. One key benefit is that it doesn’t require any alteration or involvement of the adjacent teeth, making it an excellent choice if your neighboring teeth are healthy or there’s ample space available.

Caring for these replacements is simple and feels just like maintaining your natural teeth. You can brush, floss, and follow your usual dental hygiene routine without compromise. This makes it easier to keep your smile healthy while enjoying the functionality and aesthetics of a complete set of teeth.

By preserving the integrity of your adjacent teeth and simplifying oral care, this option provides a reliable and convenient alternative for tooth replacement that fits seamlessly into your life.

Proper care is essential to ensure the longevity of your new dental implant. It is important to maintain your regular oral hygiene routine, which includes brushing and flossing daily. While the dental implant is durable, neglecting oral hygiene can still lead to gum and bone issues. By consistently practicing good oral care, you can protect the health of your implant and surrounding tissues, ensuring its longevity for many years to come.

FAQs

What are dental implants?

Dental implants are permanent tooth replacement solutions that use a titanium post placed in the jawbone to support a natural-looking crown. They restore both the function and appearance of missing teeth.

You may be a good candidate if you are missing one or more teeth, have healthy gums, and enough bone density to support the implant. During your consultation at our Dover office, we will evaluate your oral health and determine if implants are right for you.

With proper care, dental implants can last 20 years or longer—and often a lifetime. Good oral hygiene and regular visits to our Morris County practice help ensure long-term success.

The procedure is performed with local anesthesia, so patients feel little to no discomfort during surgery. Most report only mild soreness afterward, which can be managed with over-the-counter pain medication.

The cost of implants varies depending on the number of teeth being replaced and whether additional procedures, like bone grafting, are needed. At Aesthetic Dental Center of Morris County, we provide transparent pricing and flexible payment options.

Our experienced team uses advanced technology to deliver safe, precise implant placement and long-lasting, natural-looking results. Patients throughout Dover and Morris County trust us for expert restorative care.
