Hudson & Woodbury DENTAL IMPLANTS: A BETTER WAY TO REPLACE TEETH

BENEFITS | BEFORE & AFTERS | REVIEWS | FAQS

Dental implants, a majority of the time, are the most predictable and desirable option to replace a single tooth or multiple teeth. They provide individuals with restored function and a long-term, esthetically pleasing result and with more comfort than alternative options. Before implants were available, patients chose bridges, partial dentures, and full dentures for the replacement of missing teeth. If interested in dental implants, a referral is not necessary. Patients can contact us directly.

In our practice, David Paulson, DDS, MS or Gregory Ramirez, DMD, MS has received additional training in the preparation, placement, and maintenance of dental implants. They continue to enhance their skills through continuing education and lead local dental study groups. We use onsite advanced 3-D imaging, provide personalized care tailored to each patient’s needs, and consistently experience long-term success with our dental implants.

Some of the benefits:

  • Dental Implants act and feel like natural teeth and, with proper maintenance, dental implants can last a lifetime.
  • Dental Implants have no risk of developing cavities.
  • Unlike a bridge, dental implants do not rely on adjacent teeth for support thus reducing stress on natural teeth. In addition, the abutment teeth used to support a bridge must be reduced to fit a crown over the natural tooth. Why compromise two teeth to replace one if it isn’t necessary?
  • Dental Implants can also be placed to support a bridge and eliminate the need for a partial denture.
  • Unhappy with a loose or ill-fitting denture? Again, dental implants could be the answer. Multiple implants can be placed to support a full denture.
  • Maintains facial structure and appearance.

Patient Testimonial By Gregory K

I have been going to The Periodontal Center to have two dental implants placed to replace two missing teeth as a result of old age. I have been very pleased with what has taken place during this procedure. Dr. Paulson is polite and professional and explains everything you need to know so you understand it. His assistant, Hayley, is outstanding; she listens to and explains to you about the aftercare, answering any questions you may have. In fact, Dr. Paulson's staff has all been great, and I would recommend Dr. David Paulson to anyone who is dealing with dental problems and maybe looking for a periodontist.
