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

From their crispy clean dental office, to their awesome customer service, and of course their fantastic staff- Dr. Shahin has a sensational team at BD! Although I have since moved from Carroll Gardens area, I had been going to their practice for over 10 years with no complaints. They were always professional and upfront about their implant services and were always willing to spend a little more time educating the patient about oral surgery. The doctor is the hygienist and is extremely gentle and thorough with the cleanings. I would recommend for those reading this to schedule an appointment with this patient centered office.

I have not visited any dentist in about 4 years and now I’m happy to have found Brooklyn Dentist. Super friendly, nice and warm doctor, manager and receptionist with lots of patience and professional knowledge. All you need to do is walk in lie down and allow the doctor to do his job. I will recommend Dr. Shahin to everyone who is trying to find a dentist near Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn. So far I have received two titanium implant posts, bone grafting, and many tooth-colored fillings from Dr. Shahin. I always thought an implant surgery gonna hurt as hell and I lost two molars years ago and never replaced them because I was afraid of the operation. But Dr. Shahin dispelled my fear. The whole process was painless. Not just because I was numbed but I actually felt nothing after the implant placement. All hail Dr. Shahin! Besides, it's an extremely clean modern office with comfortable chairs and a nice classical music selection. 100 pts! 5 stars!

Dr. Shahin and his team were able to Reconstruct my 92 year olds mother over implant dentures after an unethical implant specialist in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn ruined her mouth. With lots of compassion, care and many hours he was able to craft her completely new denture that allowed her to swallow, speak and eat which was impossible for her to do before. There are no words for the gratitude we feel towards Dr. Shahin and his team at Brooklyn Dentist.
