DENTAL IMPLANTS

Advanced smile solutions.

Dental implants present numerous benefits over other methods of teeth replacement, meaning they are often the solution our doctors recommend for their Fredericksburg patients.

ABOUT DENTAL IMPLANTS

  • Through advancements in dental care, millions of patients who have missing teeth or tooth loss due to periodontal disease or injury now have a treatment option that fits, feels and functions like your natural teeth.

  • A dental implant consists of a titanium post that is securely placed into your jaw bone to act as a replacement root.

  • After the implant fuses to the bone, it will serve as the foundation for a dental crown, bridge or dentures.

  • Dental implants are long-lasting and natural looking, and they stimulate natural bone growth, which helps to prevent bone loss.

AM I A CANDIDATE FOR DENTAL IMPLANTS?

At Synergy Periodontics and Implants, we will perform a thorough evaluation to help determine if you are a candidate for a dental implant. We will take a CBCT scan to analyze the amount of bone you have, visualize nerve pathways and locate your sinus cavities. After the images are taken and analyzed, you will know if you are a candidate for implant therapy. The CBCT scan provides a 3-D image of your jaw bone and oral structures, and helps Dr. Thanos Dounis and/or Dr. Al Haydar plan out the proper placement of your dental implant.

Thanks to modern dental advancements, there are very few limiting factors for people who desire the long-lasting and natural looking implant therapy. Even if patients have insufficient quantity of bone to safely place implants, Dr. Thanos Dounis and/or Dr. Al Haydar can graft bone to prepare the area to build a strong foundation for the implants. Advancements in this type of treatment have made it possible for patients who would not have previously been considered candidates to have the opportunity for successful implant treatment.

Dental Implants – Multiple Teeth Replacement

BENEFITS OF DENTAL IMPLANTS?

Dr. Thanos Dounis and Dr. Al Haydar are highly trained and experienced in implant surgery and utilize the latest techniques to ensure precise placement for the most predictable outcomes. Implants can be used for single tooth replacement, multiple tooth replacements and full arch replacement, or dentures. Dental implants have become the standard of care for tooth replacement, and for the revision and maintenance of older dentistry methods offering patients many additional benefits, including:

  • Improved aesthetics – dental implants look, feel and act like your natural teeth

  • Better speech and eating ability – patients can speak better and eat with confidence, as dental implants do not move or slide around in the mouth like removable dentures

  • Enhanced comfort – implants are securely placed in the jaw bone and do not move or slip around like removable dentures
  • Retain your face shape and smile
  • Durability – implants are highly durable and made with strong materials that are designed to last a lifetime
  • Improved oral health – dental implants allow easier access between teeth when flossing and brushing
