Dental Implants
If you are missing natural teeth, it not only affects your appearance, but it can also negatively impact your oral health and function.
Dental implants, made from surgical-grade titanium, are considered to be the longest-lasting teeth replacement option available.

Benefits of Dental Implants
Optimal Oral Health
Because dental implants stimulate the jawbone just like natural tooth roots, they help preserve existing tissue and reduce the risk of bone atrophy.
Long-Lasting Results
Compared to other tooth replacement options, implants offer unparalleled longevity. With proper care and maintenance, they can last for several decades.

The cost of dental implants depends on a variety of factors, including the condition of your smile, the health of your bone tissue, and how many teeth you are missing. For a single dental implant to replace a missing tooth, the cost can range from $2,900 to $4,800. To replace a full arch, the cost is closer to $20,000 to $30,000.

With a highly trained provider like Dr. Mamah, your dental implant treatment will be a great investment in your oral and overall health.
Is the Procedure Painful?
In addition to cost concerns, many patients are anxious about the pain or discomfort associated with dental implant treatment. To make your care as painless and anxiety-free as possible, Dr. Mamah offers various sedation options.
In addition to local anesthesia, which blocks pain and sensation at the treatment site, you can choose to receive nitrous oxide or oral sedation.
Determining Candidacy
Good Oral Health
To be considered for dental implants, patients must have healthy teeth and gums. The presence of tooth decay, gum disease, damaged tooth roots, or other issues can impede the success of treatment. These issues should be treated prior to dental implant placement.
Healthy Jawbone
Individuals must have a strong, healthy jawbone to accommodate dental implants. If you have sustained bone loss or jawbone atrophy, then a bone grafting procedure or sinus lift may be necessary to prepare the jaw for implant surgery.
Proper Oral Care
Dental implants do not require a significant amount of extra maintenance. However, proper brushing, daily flossing, regular dental exams, and professional cleanings are all necessary to keep your implants in good condition for many years to come.
Implant Treatment Timeline
During your initial consultation, we will conduct a bone scan using 3-D computed tomography (CT). This scan allows us to determine the condition of your bone and plan the best sites for your implant placement. For complex cases, we may conduct virtual implant treatment planning to further ensure the success of your procedure.
Based on your bone density and individual needs, we will choose between different brands of implants. We only use implants from well-established companies in the United States so that each patient benefits from high-quality materials and long-lasting results.
The specific timeline can vary depending on the unique needs of the individual. However, here are a few steps to anticipate during treatment:

Dental Implant Recovery
What to Expect during Healing
Following dental implant placement, patients can expect some degree of bleeding, swelling, and discomfort. Fortunately, these side effects can be mitigated by following all recommended postoperative guidelines provided by your Hackensack, NJ, dentist.
How Long Does Recovery Take?
While most individuals are comfortable within a few days after their dental implant surgery, full recovery takes longer. Every individual is unique and heals at a different rate. On average, implant treatment takes about three to six months from start to finish.
