What are Dental Implants?
Dental Implants are natural-looking restorations. They look and feel just like your existing teeth, so no one will even know they’re artificial. They consist of a strong titanium implant fixture, a connecting piece called an abutment, and a beautiful ceramic crown.
Dental implants are the perfect way to restore your missing or damaged teeth. They’re also permanently attached to your jaw to stimulate healthy bone growth.
What is the Dental Implant Process?
Our goal is to make the dental implant placement process as comfortable as possible for our patients. It typically takes about two to three appointments to complete and will leave you with a smile that can last a lifetime.
The process starts with a free consultation to discuss your needs and determine which solution is right for you. After that, your implant fixture will be secured to your jawbone, and you’ll receive a beautiful crown after your mouth has healed.
Am I a Candidate for Dental Implants?
Do you hide your smile in social situations due to your missing teeth? If so, dental implants will give you with a smile you’ll be proud of. These restorations are secured to your jaw, providing you with complete stability.
Living with missing teeth can make it difficult to chew certain foods or speak clearly. Dental implants will give you the freedom to eat your favorite foods and speak with ease.

I’m missing multiple teeth, what is the best tooth replacement treatment for me?
It’s difficult to determine the answer to this question without examining your teeth, mouth, and jawbone. Your first step is to schedule a dental implant consultation at Reger Family Dental.
This initial examination will allow us to look at your mouth, review your health history, and help you explore your options. We’ll also provide you with a written quote that will help you determine if dental implants are the right treatment for your oral health needs, as well as your budget.
I have dentures. Will dental implants still work for me?
If you’ve been wearing dentures periodically, you may not have sufficient bone to support a dental implant. During your initial consultation, Dr. Reger will examine your mouth and oral health to determine if you’re a candidate for implants.
Fortunately, we offer several supplemental procedures, like tissue grafting and bone grafting, to help prepare you for dental implant placement.
Can any dentist place my dental implants?
Although many dental professionals say they can place dental implants, we suggest that patients always research potential providers before undergoing any surgical procedures.
Oral surgery is very complex and your provider should have special training, education, and experience to ensure the best possible results. Only a trained and experienced dental implants provider can make sure that your dental implants are placed properly, look natural, and that they last for many decades.
