Missing teeth can affect more than your smile; when we have missing teeth, other complications occur, such as biting difficulties and affected speech. Dental implants offer a long-lasting, predictable solution to tooth loss by providing an anchor for new teeth. At Brooklyn Dental Spa, we perform dental implants in Brooklyn NY for patients who are searching for a beautiful and functional smile.

What Is a Dental Implant?

Dental implants are the result of significant advancements in dental research. Dental implants are small titanium posts that are surgically placed in the bone in place of the tooth's natural root. This post is fitted with an abutment, onto which new crowns and bridges or dentures are fixed. Dental implants can also function as a stable anchor for permanent dentures and are known for their retention and ability to nurture good oral health.

Who is Qualified to Get Dental Implants?

To get dental implants in Brooklyn, you should be in otherwise good dental health. Signs of periodontitis or bone loss from missing teeth should be discussed with our dentists before your treatment plan can be put into action. Patients who are considering getting dental implants should also be non-smokers, as tobacco use prevents your body from healing after the surgical placement of dental implants.

What Are the Advantages of Dental Implants?

Esthetics

You may have noticed that people who are missing multiple adjacent teeth develop a kind of depleted or sunken-in look. This problem is caused by diminishing jaw bone density. Dental implants prevent premature aging and a sunken appearance by stimulating the jawbone and filling out your smile.

Function

Dental implants allow new dentures and dental crowns to behave like real teeth. Our patients discover they are able to chew, bite, and speak as they normally would, without having to worry about the inconveniences normally associated with traditional removable prostheses or less permanent restorations. Because the alloys used in dental implant treatment are durable and resilient, Brooklyn patients can enjoy their strong new smiles forever.

Stability

The titanium dental implant fuses to the bone through a process known as osseointegration. Posts become part of the jawbone, so when new restorations are fitted onto the dental implants, they cannot move around, or slip. This reinforces the strength of your new teeth, as well as healthy bone retention.

What Are Different Types of Dental Implants?

There are multiple types of dental implant restorations available in Brooklyn depending on the patient's expectations and resources. Here are a few popular options:

Patient Testimonials

I will start off by saying that I’ve been to so many different dentists in Bay Ridge, and I am terrified and just traumatized by the dentist. I’ve had so much work done so I hate being judged by a new dentist every time/ hygienist every time. At the beginning of this year I was trying to get over my fear with a new dentist. I ended up choosing to visit Dr. Shahin after checking out the google reviews on him and his office. I called and made an appointment and notified them that I was nervous. When I walked in the first time, the front desk was really nice and very helpful. The hygienist is Dr. Shahin! And he knew how I felt about the dentist and made me feel 100% comfortable. Everyone in the office is so welcoming and the whole dentist appointment was comfortable. I’ve been to the office 5 times now and had never waited to be seen. I have had 4 dental implants restored for my lower jaw through my previous dentist and thankfully Dr. Shahin has plenty of experience with implant crowns and advised me on which ones needed to be re-done. The office is comfortable and has the comfiest chairs. I can’t stress the comfort level I experienced at the office and I don’t dread the dentist any longer. I highly recommend it to those that have a fear of the dentist and live near Bay Ridge, Brooklyn.

As a 30 year old woman who hates dentists, they eased my anxiety so much and were so supportive since I was so nervous. It did not help that I needed multiple dental implants. The doctor helped me calm my nerves and checked in on me and would stop when I needed him to. I am so thankful and feel so lucky to have found a dentist near Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, a city that has many really bad ones.
