Implant Dentistry

Dental ImplantsIf you’re interested in consulting with a Jacksonville, Live Oak or Lake City, FL implant dentist about treatment, you’ll find the answers you need at Smile Designs Dentistry. We’ll explain the implant procedure to you in detail so you can make an informed decision about treatment. We bring with us 13 years of cosmetic dentistry experience, and our goal is to help you to have a full, strong set of teeth again!

Dental implants have distinct advantages over traditional dentures. With traditional dentures, you have a full or partial set of false teeth that must be removed for cleaning and that aren’t always as securely set in your mouth as you’d like them to be. With dental implants, however, you have permanent teeth prosthetics that look, feel, and work just like your natural teeth!

When you come to Smile Designs for this treatment, we place a small titanium screw directly into the bone where the tooth is missing. Over time this screw actually integrates with the bone and becomes a strong and permanent root. A prosthetic tooth that is customized to match your other teeth will be affixed to the screw once the area is sufficiently healed. You treat your prosthetics just like your normal teeth, and they generally last for 20 years or more.
