Why Dental Implants?
Dental Implants
are the most predictable and successful long-term solution to missing teeth.
- Alternatives to Bridges, Partials and Dentures
- Prevention of Bone Atrophy- a progressive shrinking of the jawbone which can affect jaw function and cause facial cosmetic changes
- Born without teeth
Dental Implant Process
STEP ONE: Surgical phase of implant placement
Dr. Siegel uses precise, gentle surgical techniques to place the implants into the jawbone for approximately four months, allowing bonding to bone. This helps ensure a strong, solid foundation for replacement teeth.
STEP TWO: Restorative Phase
Your general dentist or prosthodontist works closely with Dr. Siegel, creating and attaching your new tooth or teeth to the anchored implant(s) in your jaw.
LONG-TERM SUCCESS
As an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon, Dr. Siegel utilizes a team approach with your dentist and/or specialists which enhances the quality and long-term success of Dental Implant Surgery. MINIMAL PAIN & NO DOWNTIME
Dr. Siegel provides you with the options of local anesthetic, intravenous sedation or general anesthesia in order to minimize pain and/or anxiety. Patients resume most normal activities the same or next day.
