Natural-Looking Replacements

Before developing dental implants, crowns, bridges, or dentures were the only alternative to replacing a missing tooth. Since then, implant dentistry has become an advanced treatment that is now a widely used procedure in cosmetic dentistry and restorative services. However, not everyone is a good candidate for a dental implant; for a successful implant to take hold, you must have proper amount of bone and a strong immune system.

Implants for Missing Teeth

We provide implants for the following common reasons:

  • Replacing All Teeth: If you are missing all of your teeth, an implant-supported full bridge or full denture can replace them.
  • Replacing Multiple Teeth: If you are missing several teeth, implant-supported bridges can replace them
  • Replacing a Single Tooth: If you are missing a single tooth, one implant and a crown can replace it. If you are missing one tooth in a given area of your mouth, we may recommend that you consider one dental implant to replace the root of the missing tooth, and an implant crown to rebuild your tooth in a beautiful and natural-looking manner.

How Dental Implants Can Help

Dental implants are titanium posts placed into the jawbone and function much like the root of a natural tooth. An artificial tooth, called a crown, is attached to the implant to replace your missing tooth.

Dental implants can be a viable solution if these conditions apply to you:

  • You have missing teeth
  • There’s enough bone to support an implant
  • Your oral health is good

How Can I Care For My Dental Implants?

Preventative care is an important factor in ensuring that your dental implants function properly. Continue to practice good oral hygiene by brushing at least twice a day, using a toothbrush with soft bristles. It is also a good idea to floss and use a small interdental brush to care for hard-to-reach areas. Ask the professionals at Jockey Hollow Dentistry what is the best toothpaste to use in caring for your dental implants.

Commonly Asked Questions

What are the benefits of choosing dental implants in Mendham, NJ?

Dental implants in Mendham, NJ offer several benefits including a natural-looking replacement for missing teeth, improved oral function, and long-term durability. Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, implants are anchored into the jawbone, providing stability and preventing bone loss. Patients can enjoy a restored smile that feels and functions like their natural teeth. Jockey Hollow Dentistry provides personalized implant services to meet the unique needs of each patient, ensuring optimal results.

Am I a suitable candidate for dental implants?

Suitability for dental implants is determined by several factors, including having a sufficient amount of bone to anchor the implants and a strong immune system to aid in healing and prevent infection. It's essential to have good oral health and hygiene practices. To find out if you're a candidate for dental implants, a consultation with the professionals at Jockey Hollow Dentistry is recommended, where they will assess your individual situation.

How do I maintain my dental implants after the procedure?

Maintaining dental implants involves practicing good oral hygiene, such as brushing at least twice a day with a soft-bristled toothbrush, flossing, and using an interdental brush for hard-to-reach areas. It's also important to schedule regular dental check-ups and cleanings. The team at Jockey Hollow Dentistry can provide specific recommendations on the best toothpaste and care practices to ensure the longevity of your dental implants.

Can dental implants replace multiple missing teeth?

Yes, dental implants can replace multiple missing teeth. For several missing teeth, implant-supported bridges are an excellent option. If all teeth are missing, an implant-supported full bridge or full denture can provide a complete restoration. These solutions offer a more permanent and stable alternative to traditional dentures, allowing patients to speak, eat, and smile with confidence. Jockey Hollow Dentistry offers these implant solutions tailored to each patient's needs.
