Dental Implants in Boca Raton, FL

Boca Raton Dental Implant Surgeon

If you are missing teeth, are worried about bone loss in your gums, or wish you had permanent teeth, dental implants could be the best solution to improve your smile and oral health. If you’ve decided it’s time for dental implants, turn to the knowledgeable and experienced oral surgical team at Boca Dental in Boca Raton, FL.

While dental implants are essential for preventing bone loss around missing teeth and can help patients maintain the health of their remaining teeth, insurance companies often consider it a cosmetic implant surgical procedure. We have helped patients find affordable solutions for nearly 20 years with financing and payment plans to cover their dental implants.

What Patients Should Know About Getting Dental Implants

At Boca Dental, we offer our expertise and guidance to correct and maintain your oral health at every step. Patients should know that dental implants offer several benefits, including:

• Using titanium posts that bond with your jaw bone to prevent further bone loss from missing teeth
• Preserving your facial structure by filling the gaps between teeth
• Providing you with natural-looking teeth replacements for a beautiful and confident smile

What Are Dental Implants?

When a patient loses teeth from periodontal disease, we can replace the missing teeth with implants. Whether due to genetics or failing to maintain proper care of the teeth, replacing missing teeth with dental implants can give a patient a new lease on life and help improve their oral hygiene.

Missing teeth can lead to bone deterioration, displacement of remaining teeth, and gum disease in and around the empty tooth socket.

When adding a dental implant, a dental surgeon first adds a titanium screw into the bone, then caps it with a ceramic crown. Bone easily bonds to titanium, and ceramic is harder than your natural teeth. When your implant sets into the bone, it is more durable than your natural teeth.

At most dental offices, installing the implant and the crown require separate appointments. We do everything on the same day at Boca Dental.

We Make Getting Dental Implants a Same-day Procedure

We proudly implement the same-day services developed by Nobel Biocare™. Our surgeon and dentist collaborate using computer-guided tools to complete the surgery in about an hour. How does it work?

We build your custom implants before your surgery. We can scan your teeth and jawbone with our I-CAT scan unit, then use the Nobel Guide’s virtual reality software to plan your implant locations and create your implant models.

When you come in on the day of your procedure, we use remote dental surgery robots to work faster and more accurately, taking approximately an hour to perform the surgery. Although anesthesia isn’t necessary, we can still offer it for patients who have dental anxiety.

This dental implant surgery method reduces patient discomfort and often shows less of an inflammatory reaction in post-operative swelling and bruising. Many patients can return to work and other normal activities the next day.

Sedation Dentistry and Dental Implants

At Boca Dental, we recognize that many people have anxiety about visiting the dentist. We offer sedation dentistry with our in-house anesthesiologist.

The dentist’s office can be scary for patients of all ages and procedures of all kinds, even a simple cleaning. Dentist office anxiety can keep patients from visiting their dentist for years, which allows problems to exacerbate. Worsened problems require more correction, making appointments seem even more intimidating.

We use IV sedation in our sedation dentistry appointments, during which we monitor your vital signs with blood pressure monitors, EKGs, pulse oximeters, respiration monitors, and more. We also deploy continuous oxygen during IV sedation dental visits.

Dental Implant Costs and Financing

Cost is another factor that prevents many people from seeking the dental care they need. At Boca Dental, we offer several finance options and payment plans, as well as accepting most major PPO dental insurance plan providers.

If cost has been a barrier to getting the dental implants or other oral care you need, we’re ready to work with you to qualify you for financing.
