Quality Dental Implants for Patients in Schenectady, NY

A dental implant is an alternative to an actual tooth and can be inserted into your jaw bone to replace any missing teeth you may have. This procedure is rather common and can have your teeth looking like new in a short period of time.

Here at Glenville Smiles, our team can create a titanium tooth that will be placed where your missing tooth once was and can attach it into your gums and jaw to ensure stability.

Dental implants can stop your jawbone from deteriorating and preserve the natural alignment of your facial structure for years to come. Our implants can be treated like a normal tooth in every way and can even be used to chew without any discomfort.

If you are considering getting dental implants with us, we ask that you call us today to schedule an appointment or get any more information that you may need from our Schenectady, NY office. We look forward to restoring your smile!

First, you will have a consultation with our cosmetic dentist where we will begin to develop a plan for your dental implants. At the next visit, we will place the dental implant in your jawbone. The healing process can take up to a few months, but once healed, a small connector piece will be placed on the dental implant just above the gumline. Next, we will take an impression of your mouth and teeth in order to create the artificial tooth which will be attached to the connector piece. Periodic checkups will be needed to ensure the healing process is going well.

There are several reasons to replace missing teeth with dental implants:

Dental implants are a great option for teens and adults of all ages. They look and feel like natural teeth, and help you retain the shape of your face so no one can tell the difference. They function like natural teeth, allowing you to talk and chew like you once did and without your teeth slipping, as you may experience with dentures.  

They are built to last as long as you take care of them. Unlike dentures, you don't need to take them out to clean. You can brush and floss them just as you would your natural teeth. The best part of dental implants is the confidence you will gain. They are secure and won't slip as mentioned before. This will keep your speech sounding more natural and give you the peace of mind to eat the foods you love and smile often.
