Implant Examples

Let's Hear From A Real Implant Patient:

Implant Bar with Overdenture: This type of restoration involves two or more implants. The implants are then connected with a bar that provides retention for a denture that fits over the bar. The primary purpose of the bar is retention.

Fixed Detachable Prosthesis: One of the first restorations ever created using dental implants was a denture type prosthesis that was screwed to four or more implants. Today this is still the restoration of choice for a fully edentulous lower jaw.

Crowns and Bridges: Implants can be used to attach both individual crowns as well as bridges to a fully or partially edentulous jaw. Basically, the implants act to replace the natural tooth which would have been used to retain the crown or bridge. In the picture below the patient had most of his upper jaw replaced with implant based restorations  .

This patient needed implants throughout her mouth in order to allow us the opportunity to provide her with a cemented bridge that encompasses her entire upper jaw. Implants provided the support for an extremely esthetic and functional restoration.

Implant dentistry can truly make a difference in your life. Just take our friend John  M. for example. You can follow John through his treatment process and get a feeling for what John has accomplished. I think the smile on his face at the completion of treatment says it all.

The following patient probably has more implants per inch than anyone in the U.S. but is thrilled to be wearing a cemented in bridge rather than a denture. Without dental implants Mike R. would have to wear a full upper denture, something he just hated!
