If you’ve experienced tooth loss due to periodontal disease, traumatic injury, tooth decay or for any other reason, you may be a candidate for implants. A dental implant is a small surgical post, made of biocompatible materials, which integrates with the jawbone overtime to support a dental prosthesis. By behaving in much the same way as the root of a natural tooth, a dental implant provides ongoing stimulation to the surrounding bone to prevent a loss of volume and preserve facial fullness. Once your dental implants are placed and fully integrated, we can restore them with dental crowns, fixed bridges or overdentures. At Advanced Dental Care of Ridgewood, we can even replace a full arch of upper or lower teeth with an implant-supported full arch dental bridge, which offers a permanent, stable alternative to traditional dentures. Not only do dental implants have an astonishing 98% rate of success, but also people living with dental implants typically report an improvement to their overall quality of life following treatment.

At Advanced Dental Care of Ridgewood we make it easier to smile, eat and speak with implants. Our experienced dentist and staff keep pace with the most advanced solutions in prosthodontic care.

The reason is that implants behave in much the same way as the roots of your natural teeth and integrate with your jawbone to provide unparalleled support for a customized dental prosthesis. While other methods of tooth replacement also offer functional and cosmetically pleasing results of care, dental implants not only make it possible to replace teeth without involving and having to crown any adjacent teeth, but they also help prevent bone shrinkage in the edentulous (“toothless”) area to help preserve the natural contours of your face. Anything from a single tooth to multiple ones up to an entire set of teeth can be replaced with dental implants.

In addition, dental implants can be placed to restore missing teeth, without requiring the involvement the adjacent teeth.

Ridgewood Dental Implants
One of the latest breakthroughs in tooth replacement is the dental implant. Modeled to function just like your natural teeth, dental implants are inserted directly into the jaw bone with a mini inert, biocompatible post, which behaves in the same manner as the root of your natural tooth. Extending up above the gum line where a custom crown can be securely fastened into place, the lower portion of your Ridgewood dental implants integrate with the bone in the jaw to provide unparalleled stability and support.

When teeth are lost, the surrounding bone tissue has a tendency to shrink, in a process known as resorption. With dental implants, because they are placed directly into the jaw, just like the natural roots of your teeth, they prevent resorption, and can preserve your facial contours. Promoting healthy jaws, and not relying on the support of adjacent teeth, dental implants are an excellent choice for replacement.

As far as the custom crowns that rest on top of Ridgewood dental implants, they’re specifically made to match the shade, shape, and alignment of your teeth, for a seamless result.
