Understanding Dental ImplantsDental implants are artificial tooth roots, typically crafted from titanium, that are surgically placed into the jawbone. They serve as a stable foundation for replacement teeth, mimicking the appearance and function of natural teeth.
“Implants are helping many patients overcome dental issues in a way that looks and feels amazing,” adds Dr. William J. Buchholtz. “A dental implant replaces a missing natural tooth root with a titanium post that can regenerate a brand-new tooth root.”
At Family Dental Practice in Watertown, we specialize in customized implant solutions that restore smiles and improve oral health.
Dental implants provide several advantages:
Dr. William J. Buchholtz shares: “Life is short, so I always strive to see the glass half full! With dental implants, we help patients see the brighter side of life by restoring their smiles.”
Your journey begins with a thorough consultation. Our experienced team, led by Dr. Buchholtz and Dr. Garro, will assess your oral health, review your medical history, and take advanced imaging to determine if dental implants are right for you.
Once you’re deemed a candidate, the implant placement process begins. A small titanium post is surgically embedded into the jawbone, acting as a strong and long-lasting foundation for the replacement tooth.
Over the next few months, the implant undergoes osseointegration, a natural process where the titanium post fuses with the bone, ensuring maximum stability.
Once healing is complete, a custom-designed dental crown is attached to the implant, restoring your tooth’s function and appearance.
Dr. Buchholtz and Dr. Garro bring years of experience and specialized training in implant dentistry. Dr. Buchholtz has completed a Fellowship and Mastership with the International Implant Association, equipping him with the expertise to handle complex cases with precision and care.
We utilize advanced dental technology, including 3D imaging and guided implant placement techniques, to ensure accuracy and successful outcomes.
Every patient’s dental needs are unique. We tailor our implant treatments to suit your oral health goals, lifestyle, and budget.
Our practice is designed to provide a relaxing and stress-free experience. We prioritize patient comfort at every stage of treatment, ensuring a positive dental visit.
Dr. Garro emphasizes, “Dentistry is not just about teeth; it’s about building lasting relationships and trust with our patients. Our goal is to make every patient feel like a part of our family.”
Many of our patients have experienced life-changing results with dental implants. They appreciate the renewed confidence, improved function, and enhanced aesthetics that our implant solutions provide.
“Family Dental Practice, across the fence from Riverside Middle School, is the most pleasant and nice dental experience I’ve had in a long time. The workers are all friendly and helpful. The nurses and doctors carefully explain what they’re doing and always with a why. After years of dentists, this was the first place to explain my jaw alignment to me and why it matters! They also leave the big choices up to you and don’t force you into any one choice or another. The care my wife and I have received here is second to none!” – Nathan W.
“I’ve been seeing Dr. Will for a few years and it’s been a great experience. I’ve never felt more comfortable in a dentist’s chair than I do here. Mind you, I’ve had a lot of dental issues and sadly my trips are frequent…He’s always gentle and friendly. The two implants that I had crowned yesterday completed my smile again, and he seemed almost as excited as I was! He genuinely cares about his patients and I would recommend Family Dental to anyone!”- HH
Most adults with missing teeth and good oral health are candidates. If you have bone loss, procedures like bone grafting may be recommended to enhance implant success.
With proper care, including regular check-ups and good oral hygiene, dental implants can last a lifetime.
Caring for implants is similar to caring for natural teeth: brush twice daily, floss regularly, and visit your dentist for routine check-ups and professional cleanings.
