Show Off a Full Smile With A Variety of Implant Restoration Options

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:

  • Implant Crown - Replace one lost tooth with a crown-implant combination. This will blend in naturally with your smile and restore your oral function.
  • Implant-Supported Bridges - Rather than losing any natural structure of your adjacent teeth with a traditional bridge, you can replace several missing teeth in a row by anchoring your restorations to implants. This will preserve your jawbone, give you a strong bite, and natural-looking smile.
  • Implant Dentures - Avoid messy adhesives and a limited diet by securing your dentures to implants. You can replace a full arch of teeth without worrying about slippery dentures, gum soreness, or jawbone deterioration.

To become a good candidate for implants, we may recommend other procedures like tooth extractions, bone grafting, or a ridge augmentation. If you're nervous about treatment, we can provide your choice of inhaled or oral conscious sedation to help you remain calm and relaxed throughout your procedure.

Reclaim your smile and quality of life with dental implants in Portland, OR. Call Kennedy Dental today at 866-552-4346 to schedule an appointment.

Common Questions About Dental Implants

What are dental implants?

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.

Do dental implants hurt?

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.

Can dental implants be removed?

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.

Going to Kennedy Dental was by far the best dental visit & consult I've had. I'm fairly dental phobic but Kassie explained everything she was going to do before hand & while she was cleaning my teeth as well. I have alot of broken & missing teeth in my mouth & hadn't been to the dentist in years. Dr. Kennedy was very nice & so personable. I actually have alot of hope now that with their help, I will have a healthy smile back soon. I am very grateful for Dr. Kennedy, Kassie & Nancy. They all made me feel much better. 😊

Always professional and kind! I have been a patient at Lombard Dental since 1996. Dr. Kennedy is always so patient with me as I have some anxiety at the dentist. His staff is so comforting and attentive towards me…. Always offering a blanket or emotional support. I left for a few years as my place of employment changed and I completely regret it…. But I am back now and so happy to be! Thank you, Kennedy Dental! If I could give you 10 stars I would! Rochelle Drakos

I had an absolutely amazing experience at Kennedy Dental. It was my first time visiting the dentist in awhile and the team was super helpful and responsive in answering my questions and scheduling an appointment online. The team addressed concerns I had with my teeth and showed genuine interest in my overall health. While I did purchase some oral care products, I didn't feel like they were pushing any services on me. I was very relaxed and afterward my mouth didn't ache like it does after walking out of some dentist offices. Money is always a concern, especially when not all health insurance covers dental care. The office has some great first-time patient specials and ongoing care plans for those who have to pay out-of-pocket. When I left I didn't realize how much time I had spent there, but they covered a lot of procedures from x-rays to pictures, cleaning, etc., but I was there for almost two hours. So if you're going there for a first-time visit I would just make sure you leave yourself enough time for the appointment. I definitely will be going back to them in the future.
