Having missing teeth is a common experience shared by millions. But you no longer need to endure it alone. Teeth implants offer an excellent remedy to restore your smile to its full potential. Functioning like your natural tooth roots, they securely anchor replacement teeth in position. They also mimic the stimulation provided by natural roots, aiding in the preservation of your jawbone density.
You won’t need to see an outside specialist to have your implants placed. Dr. Kennedy can perform your implant procedure right here in our office. Your first step in building your new smile involves a consultation with Dr. Kennedy, who will conduct a comprehensive assessment of your oral health and jawbone condition. Sufficient bone density is essential to support the implants successfully, and if you meet the criteria, Dr. Kennedy will devise a customized treatment plan, outlining each stage of the process in detail. If you’re concerned about the costs of treatment, we can talk to you about our payment options, including CareCredit financing.
Combine implants with any number of restorations like:

Modern dental implants are one of the best methods of restoring missing teeth. They serve as a base for several types of replacement teeth – crowns, bridges, dentures, and complete arches of secured teeth. Implants, unlike other tooth replacement options, keep your jawbone healthy and preserve your facial structure.
Having a dental implant placed is not painful because your jaw will be numbed, plus you can stay completely relaxed with dental sedation throughout your procedure. Once you go home, you might require pain relievers for a day or two, but most of our patients report only taking over-the-counter medication following their dental implant procedure. Most feel well enough to return to work the day after.
Technically, dental implants can be removed, although it is unlikely you would ever need to have that done. Once your implants have been placed in your jawbone, they completely bond with it and can last for decades, if not the rest of your life. Your replacement teeth that are anchored to your implants have an average life span of five to 10 years.
