Whether patients are in need of a single dental implant due to missing one or many teeth, same day dental implants offer permanent and natural looking tooth replacements.
Dental implants are made of biocompatible titanium posts and are surgically implanted into the patient’s natural jaw bone, acting like natural tooth roots. Custom made dental crowns, implants, dentures, or fixed bridges are then attached to the dental implant.
Not only will immediate and single dental implants improve patients oral and physical health, it will look aesthetically pleasing, too!
Implant supported Dentures are great for those who already wear dentures. While regular dentures are removable prosthetics, implant supported dentures are secured with two or more dental implants, permanently implanting them into the patient’s mouth.
Implant supported dentures improve the aesthetic of a patient’s smile and their basic dental function.
All-On-4 Dental Implants in Canyon Lake, TX, are great for patients with no functional or healthy teeth remaining. All-On-4’s are a cost-effective and minimally invasive solution that will increase patients’ quality of life.
For this permanent tooth replacement treatment, our dental team will place four to six dental implants in the patient’s upper and/or lower arch to secure the dental implant into place. After dental implants are placed, the dentist will advise patients to take caution, and only eat soft foods for about three months until the dental implants are fully healed.
For patients with anxiety about their dental procedure, or for those who do not want to be conscious while their dental procedure is being performed, sedation dentistry is a common practice dentists will use for their patients.
IV sedation, also known as intravenous sedation, is the most popular form of sedation in dentistry. IV sedation, however, does not produce the same effects as general anesthesia.
While general anesthesia puts people to sleep and is used for major surgeries, IV sedation is used to make patients calmer in a semi-awake state.
When gum disease is left untreated, it can progressively worsen into a disease that is incurable. Gingivitis is the first stage of gum disease that is treatable. Gingivitis can be reversed and cured with scaling, root planing and laser periodontics (LANAP).
Once gum disease progresses to periodontitis, the worst stage of gum disease, it becomes incurable. However, our doctors can still reverse some of the effects of periodontal disease with our gum disease and gum recession treatments.
One of the most common signs of periodontal disease is gum recession. Gum recession occurs when the gums recede and the teeth become exposed.
Our trusted periodontists utilize the minimally invasive gum recession treatment, the Pinhole Surgical Technique, in order to provide long lasting and aesthetically pleasing results.
Not everyone is a candidate for PST however, our periodontists offer three different soft tissue grafts in order to treat any type of periodontal situation that requires donor tissue to be solved, bringing your gums back to a healthy state!
For those with cracked, broken or missing teeth, our office offers CEREC nology to give patients custom made dental crowns and bridges. The best part about CEREC is that it can be done in a single appointment, generally only taking a few hours. This gives patients a convenient and comfortable experience.
Our specialists digitally design patients’ new CEREC crowns and bridges in our state of the art in-house lab. Our crowns and bridges are made using ceramic or porcelain material. The finished product is natural looking and functional teeth.
Porcelain veneers are cosmetic enhancements that are used as a long lasting solution to improve smiles. The veneer itself is a thin sheet of porcelain that is placed over teeth to hide imperfections like chips, cracks, and discoloration.
Before porcelain veneers are placed on patients teeth, a doctor must shave off a bit of the patient’s natural tooth to make room for the veneer. Then a mold is made, at our dental lab, of the patient’s tooth to create the custom made porcelain veneer!
