A Dental Implant bonds to bone in the jaw and can replace a tooth or an entire dental arch.

Many advances have come to dentistry over recent decades. But none have brought more to our most needy patients than Dental Implants. Now we can replace a single lost tooth with an esthetic single crown or replace a removable denture with a strong stable anchored bridge. All this is possible because of advanced engineering and biomedical research that today gives us a superb success rate of over ninety percent.

Dental Implants are small titanium root-like anchors that are placed in the bone of the upper or lower jaw. The Dental Implant bonds to the bone of the jaw and becomes rigid. Dental Implants can be designed to replace anything from a single missing tooth to an entire dental arch. Because each patient is unique, each Dental Implant design will have unique characteristics. Each will vary in ways such as quantity, length and size. Other considerations are things such as Implant position, patient's anatomy, bone graft needs, and replacement teeth attachments. Dr. Cass schedules you for an individual consultation to determine your particular wants and needs.

Dr. Cass will determine your Dental Implant treatment by collecting and studying your X-rays, study models, and measurements. Dr. Cass will perform a thorough clinical exam and evaluation of your dental condition. If your jawbone is near minimum levels, a CAT-SCAN may be required. This information is gathered and shared between Dr. Cass and the surgeon doctor to achieve the stability and esthetics you want.

Isn't it wonderful that we live in a world today where a lost tooth can be replaced so well! We are glad to be able to offer you this most exciting and wonderful therapy should you ever need it.
