Dental Implants
Implant dentistry at Blackstone Dental involves the placement of dental implants to replace missing teeth. Dental implants are titanium posts surgically implanted into the jawbone, serving as a stable foundation for replacement teeth such as crowns, bridges, or dentures. Implants look, feel, and function like natural teeth.
​
Dental implants are a highly recommended solution for missing teeth due to their durability and natural appearance. Dental implants help preserve the jawbone and prevent bone loss that typically occurs after tooth loss. Implants provide a stable, long-lasting solution that improves chewing function, speech, and overall oral health, contributing to better quality of life and self-esteem. We also offer nitrous, conscious, or IV sedation to make sure you are comfortable your procedure.

In the past, if teeth were missing they would be replaced with dentures, partial dentures, or bridges. Patients would have to deal with a mouth full with plastic denture, the taste of metal from a partial denture, or the difficulty in cleaning under a bridge.
