Why Choose Dental Implants?
Dental implants are considered the gold standard for tooth replacement. Unlike dentures or bridges, implants are surgically placed into the jawbone, where they fuse with the bone for long-term stability. They look, feel, and function just like natural teeth—helping you eat, speak, and smile with confidence.
At Cooper Family Dentistry, we can restore single implants, multiple implants, or even full-arch replacements with custom crowns, bridges, or implant-supported dentures. Whether you’re getting implants for the first time or need restoration of an existing one, our team is here to help.
The Three Phases of Dental Implant Treatment
1. Implant Placement – The titanium post is surgically placed into the jawbone. During initial healing, you may be asked to follow a soft-food diet.
2. Osseointegration – Over several months, the bone naturally fuses with the implant, creating a secure foundation.
3. Restoration – Once healing is complete, a custom crown, bridge, or denture is attached. Each replacement tooth is designed to match the size, shape, and color of your natural teeth for a seamless smile.
Who Is a Candidate for Dental Implants?
Most healthy adults make good candidates for dental implants. However, some conditions—such as uncontrolled diabetes, leukemia, or tobacco use—can interfere with healing. During your consultation, Dr. Cooper will review your overall health and determine the best treatment plan for you.
