Why a Dental Implant?

Dr. Schwartz is an advocate for dental implants, not only does he recommend them to replace missing teeth, he also specializes in placing the dental implant. This means that you can have all of your treatment taken care of in one same convenient place.   Dr. Schwartz prides himself on providing excellent dental care from start to finish! So what is a Dental implant? Implants act as replacements for natural tooth roots, and consist of small metal posts placed directly into the bone where teeth are missing. Crowns then cover the posts for a natural look and function. So why Dental Implants? Dental Implants can help to improve many things for you;

• Improve appearance
• Improve self-esteem
• Improve eating and chewing function
• Improve your speech

Dental Implant technology has come a long way and its success rate is very high. Dr. Schwartz will apply his in-depth knowledge of dental implants towards your individual case. He will look extensively into your individualized treatment plan to make sure that the implants he places for you have the best possible chance at integration (integration is the healing process in which the bone grows around the implant, solidifying it in the bone). How Many Steps? Good Dental Implant surgery, placement and restoration takes time. There is a time period of a few months between placing an implant or implants and restoring them (placing the crown or bridge or denture attachment). Be sure to ask Dr. Schwartz your approximate case length. Dr. Schwartz wants you to feel comfortable and confident in his care, so be sure to ask as many questions as you like.
