Dental Implants

Dental implants offer a reliable, permanent solution for tooth replacement, regardless of how many teeth have been lost. Not only do they look and feel like natural teeth, but they also function just like them.

Dental Implants in Copiague, NY

Dental implants are a superior solution for replacing missing teeth, as they act as an artificial root to secure a manufactured tooth and do not require alteration of adjacent teeth. They provide greater long-term support, function, and esthetics, due to their ability to stabilize bone levels and prevent bone loss. Depending on the individual’s requirements and condition, implants can be used to support the replacement of a single tooth, multiple teeth, or larger prostheses such as dentures. In short, dental implants offer a safe and effective way to restore a patient’s smile.

  • What is the procedure for dental implants?

    The initial step in the process of getting a dental implant requires a consultation and detailed visual examination of the area in the mouth where the implant is to be placed. Dr. Pak or Dr. Magalona will then evaluate if any existing teeth need to be removed and if a bone graft is necessary. After a patient has been allowed sufficient time to heal and ensure a healthy, strong bone is present at the site, the dental implant is inserted into the bone and a healing cap is applied to begin the healing phase. Subsequently, regular check-ups are conducted to monitor the healing process and prevent infection around the surgical site.

  • What types of dental implants exist?

    At Blossom Dental, we provide two of the most popular dental implant options: endosteal implants and all-on-4 implants. Endosteal implants are the most commonly used dental implant solution, and are comprised of a titanium metal rod that is inserted into the jawbone and a supporting post that securely holds a dental crown or bridge. All-on-4 implants are a revolutionary implant system that uses just four strategically-placed implants to support an entire top or bottom denture, allowing for faster patient recovery and reducing the risk of implant failure. Additionally, we offer the Hybridge dental implant bridge, a full arch implant bridge that provides a simple solution for full mouth reconstruction.

  • What are the benefits of dental implants?

    When a person experiences tooth loss, it can have a significant impact on their life. Not only can it make it difficult to chew and speak clearly, but it can also result in serious long-term problems such as changes in tooth positioning, jawbone deterioration, facial structure loss, and bite imbalances. To prevent these issues, dental implants can provide an ideal and permanent solution.

    Dental implants act as artificial root systems, which support a prosthetic tooth and help to maintain the alignment of the remaining teeth. This means that not only can dental implants help to alleviate the short-term challenges associated with tooth loss, but they can also help to prevent long-term consequences. Dental implants are the most effective and natural-feeling method of treating tooth loss.
