Dental Implants
The ideal candidate for dental implants is a non-smoker, has healthy gums, and has sufficient bone density in their jaw to support an implant. But you don’t have to be the “perfect candidate” to request a consultation.
Even if you don’t qualify for full-sized implants, we may be able to place mini dental implants to restore the appearance and function of your smile. Give us a call today to schedule a free consultation.

General Dentistry
Preventing cavities is possible by reducing the occurrence of plaque in the mouth through good oral hygiene. This starts with brushing the teeth at least twice daily and flossing every day. Patients also need to cut down sugar intake, especially in foods like candies, chips, fruits and crackers. Sweet and sticky foods are meals for the bacteria causing damage in the mouth. Regular dental visits for checkups and cleanings are also important.
Many people do not visit the dentist regularly. They only visit when there is a dental problem. This is called “crisis treatment,” as opposed to “preventive treatment.” Although this is usually done to save money, patients may end up with expensive treatment procedures that could have been prevented by minor treatments earlier.
Many conditions are symptomless until they reach their advanced stage. The regular dental appointment allows the general dentist to monitor the patient’s oral health and detect potential issues that can become complicated.
Skin Test
Dental implants are one of the most significant advancements in dentistry. Unlike a dental bridge attached to teeth adjacent to the missing space, a dental implant is a standalone prosthesis placed into the jawbone, replacing your tooth and its valuable root.
We fabricate a dental crown to attach to the implant for single dental implants. The crown functions like a natural tooth, and it is a surprisingly conservative treatment for replacing missing teeth.
Your dentist may discuss an implant-retained bridge or denture if you have multiple missing teeth.
The Dental Implant Process
The first step to a new smile is a consultation with your Brooklyn dentist. This appointment determines your eligibility for dental implants. If you are a candidate, we will schedule your implant placement.
After placement, you'll enjoy an integration period. This lasts a few months and encourages the implant posts to integrate into the jawbone.
The final step is crown or prosthetic placement. Typically, it takes up to six dental implants to secure a prosthetic.
