Before a patient can undergo dental implants treatment, Dr. Reger would like to see certain characteristics in our patients. We want to ensure your smile upgrade transforms your life and gives your career and relationships that extra spark.
Dental implants may the the right solution for you, if:
- You want to replace missing teeth with stunning, natural-looking restorations. Dental implants act much like natural tooth roots for custom-crafted porcelain crowns or dentures. These innovative and revolutionary teeth replacements can completely change your smile’s appearance, rejuvenating it and highlighting its natural beauty.
- You want confidence, freedom, and happiness. Imagine no longer being embarrassed to smile. Imagine spending more time with friends and loved ones in conversation without fear of being judged. Imagine eating your favorite foods. Dental implants can make this possible.
- You want a solution that will protect your health for years to come. By acting as a strong root, a dental implant can protect your jawbone for an exceptionally long time. And by replacing a missing tooth, implants can reduce your risk of dental infection and tooth decay.
- You want to regain your overall well-being. Dental implants require strong gums and healthy teeth. We offer supplemental procedures such as bone grafting for your jaw, and tissue grafts for your gums. We want to help recover your oral health and prepare you for the implant procedure.
- You want to live your life free and unconstrained. With dental implants, you can feel stress-free about slurring your words and having to monitor which foods are off-limits. Implants restore your smile’s functionality unlike other tooth replacement treatments.
- You want a solution that does maximum work with easy, comfortable effort. Just like natural teeth, dental implants need to be brushed and flossed daily. Visit our dental practice at least once every six months for regular dental cleanings. Nothing complicated.
**It should be noted that each individual patient needs to be evaluated for dental implants based upon the state of their overall health, oral health, and willingness to follow our San Antonio dentist’s guidelines after the procedure.

What happens if I don't have enough bone for dental implants?
If you don’t have enough bone density to hold your dental implants, don’t worry because you can still get them. Luckily, Dr, Reger can help regenerate lost jawbone through a supplemental procedure.
Through a bone grafting treatment, we will use your own bone from an area of your body to supplement your jaw. This treatment is quick, comfortable, and will allow you to receive dental implants and smile without hesitation.
