Dental Implants Deliver Unrivaled Longevity, Oral Function, and Versatility

Our board-certified periodontists at the Pennsylvania Center for Dental Implants and Periodontics offer the most advanced, clinically proven dental implant technologies. After you receive dental implants in Philadelphia, PA, or Ambler, PA, you’ll experience enhanced dental function, smile appearance, and a significantly better quality of life!

What Are Dental Implants?

A dental implant has three components that work together to replace a missing or failing tooth. The screw-like zirconia implant post replicates your natural tooth root and is surgically placed below your gum line into the bone. A small piece called an abutment is placed on or built into the top of the implant to connect to the restorative dental crown.

After dental implants fuse with the underlying bone, they provide a completely stable foundation for a single crown, bridge, or full arch prosthesis. While dental implants have a high success rate of 95–99%, precision diagnostic, planning, and surgical skills are required to achieve the best outcomes.

Our Dental Implant Options

Single Implants

A single dental implant in Philadelphia, PA, and Ambler, PA, is an optimal solution to replace a tooth lost to gum disease, injury, or another cause. That said, implant placement in the esthetic zone is often more complex and challenging than in other areas of the dental arch because these teeth are integral to your smile’s beauty.

At the Pennsylvania Center for Dental Implants and Periodontics, our periodontists work closely with highly skilled restorative dentists to achieve superb results for all dental implants, including those in the esthetic zone.

Dental Bridges

Dental implant-supported bridges span the space where two or more teeth have been lost in the dental arch while providing better function, longevity, and esthetics than traditional bridges. The replacement teeth and crowns are fabricated and placed in the mouth as a single unit called a fixed zirconia bridge.

This implant-based treatment approach is completed over several months based on pretreatment conditions, postsurgical healing, your scheduling preference, and financial considerations.

Implant-Supported Dentures

Implant-supported dentures, also known as implant-retained dentures or overdentures, involve the placement of multiple dental implants into the jawbone to support a removable or fixed full arch denture.

The denture attaches to implants with locator abutments or a custom-fabricated bar, enabling optimal fit, stability, and function. While fixed implant-supported dentures provide more excellent stability, some patients prefer teeth they can remove.

Full Mouth Dental Implants

All-on-4, All-on-X, and Teeth Today® full mouth dental implants are immediate-load solutions that streamline the dental implant process. Requiring as few as four implants per arch, these natural-looking, feeling, and functioning full-mouth dental implants in Philadelphia, PA, and Ambler, PA, are designed to last a lifetime.

Full mouth dental implants will enable you to resume eating the foods you love, speak naturally, and experience an enhanced quality of life. Our team has seen countless times how full mouth dental implants have changed our patients’ lives and are thrilled to be part of your transformative journey!

Pterygoid Implants

Pterygoid implants are specialized dental implants used in the upper jaw to provide support in areas with limited bone density. They are placed in the pterygoid region, behind the maxillary sinus, avoiding the need for bone grafting.

This advanced technique allows for immediate loading and stability, even in challenging cases of severe bone loss. Pterygoid implants are particularly beneficial for patients with insufficient bone structure who cannot undergo traditional implant procedures.

Top 5 Mistakes People Make with Dental Implants

Do you have all the information you need to make the right decisions about dental implants? Don’t make any of these five common mistakes. Our exclusive checklist will steer you in the right direction.

Our Personalized Dental Implant Process

“We believe that the missing tooth or teeth should drive dental implant planning and treatment. As such, we plan backward from the final result, creating a blueprint for success.”

Consult and Planning

At your initial evaluation, we’ll discuss your dental and medical history, take digital X-rays, and a cone-beam computed tomography scan to analyze your bone structure, nerve tissue, and sinus cavities.

We believe in transparency, so we’ll discuss all the steps involved in dental implant surgery and provide an accurate dental implant cost estimate. In addition to competitive prices, we partner with top-rated third-party financing companies to help deliver even more affordable dental implants.

Implant Procedure

Sometimes, we can extract teeth during the same visit as surgery. A bone grafting procedure may be required to ensure a solid foundation and proper integration of the dental implants. If you have dental anxiety, nitrous oxide and oral conscious sedation are available, or we can arrange IV sedation dentistry administered by an anesthesiologist.

After the local anesthetic and sedation have taken effect, small holes are drilled in your gum tissue, and dental implants are meticulously placed in predetermined locations in your jawbone.

Healing and Final Restorations

Postsurgical swelling is normal for up to one to two weeks, especially two to four days after surgery, and more so in the early morning. In addition to providing you with postsurgical guidelines, we prescribe antibiotics, over-the-counter pain medication, and a painkiller prescription if you require it.

During the osseointegration process (fusion with your underlying bone), which typically takes 3-6 months, you’ll return to our practice to ensure healing and fusion progress without complications. We work with top-rated referring restorative dentists who will fabricate and fit you with your zirconia crown, bridge, or final full mouth prosthesis.
