Esthetic Periodontal Surgery

Whether you have had a tooth a extracted recently or years ago you have several treatment options, including dental implants, bridgework and dentures. While there are many factors to consider, esthetic dental implants offer a number of advantages over other alternatives.

A dental implant is a titanium fixture acting as an artficial root that is placed in the jaw and used to anchor a replacement tooth, bridge, partial denture or complete denture.

Implants don’t sacrifice the quality of your adjacent teeth the way bridework can.  Implants can help protect the health of surrounding teeth. Plus, implants can prevent the bone loss and gum recession that often accompanies bridgework or dentures when missing teeth are not replaced.

Better yet, they look and feel like your own teeth so you can talk and eat with comfort and confidence. You even care for your implant exactly the way you care for the rest of your teeth.

Dr. TJ Miller only uses implants from companies that have been shown, through research, to have a high degree of success.  We have done thousands of dental implants in our office with success rates corresponding to those in published research.  Research shows dental implants to be a very predictable procedure.  Statistics show dental implants to have success rates exceeding 95% to 99% ranging from 15 to 30 years.
