Whether a tooth was lost as a result of accidental trauma, infection or gum disease, it’s a serious problem that affects one’s appearance and self esteem. Not only do we need teeth to eat and smile with, but they also help support bone and jaw structure in the mouth.

Within one year of losing a tooth, a 25% decrease in jaw bone width will occur. Left untreated, deterioration will continue and can ultimately result in a visibly sunken jaw.

A tooth implant is an artificial root, made of titanium, which is placed in or on the jawbone. This root fuses itself to the bone, which helps return stability and stop further deterioration. Once in place, the root also serves as an anchor for a replacement crown or bridge.

Lakefront Family Dentistry offers a range of services to meet all your dental needs. Dr. Phillipe and Dr. Hauser are fully qualified family dentists with many years experience adding successful, healthy implants to his patients. Thousands of patients in Riverside County have trusted us to restore their beautiful smiles.

Are Implants the Right Choice for Me?

This is a great option that can help return a person’s mouth to its normal state. During your appointment, our amazing dentists will complete a detailed assessment and verify whether or not you are a good candidate for this service.

The ideal person for this procedure has a good overall health condition and is free of gum disease. Other medical conditions may affect the titanium root’s ability to fuse to the bone, such as diabetes not controlled by medication, cancer or alcoholism. If any of these conditions exist, Dr. Phillipe or Dr. Hauser will make an accurate, professional assessment and then determine which restorative options are best for their patients.

Will a New Tooth Implant Look and Feel Normal?

Yes, new teeth replacements have a remarkably natural appearance. Dr. Phillipe and Dr. Hauser are very skilled at crafting flawless cosmetic restorations that are virtually unnoticeable.

Although the implants may look and feel completely normal, they are very different as far as their connection to your bone. Natural teeth are connected around the bone by ligaments, while the titanium root replacement is fused directly to the bone.

Also, natural teeth are susceptible to dental caries (i.e. cavities) and decay. The titanium root replacements are made of metal and will not decay or result in cavities, which is great.

Yet, implant replacements do require regular care and maintenance, as you would normally do for your natural teeth. It’s important to continue good brushing habits and use an ADA approved toothbrush twice a day. Scheduling regular checkups every 6 months and teeth cleaning will keep your teeth and mouth healthy for years to come.

Establish Good Oral Hygiene Habits

  • Brush twice daily for 2 minutes each time
  • Floss after every meal
  • Use an ADA approved electric toothbrush
  • Use fluoridated toothpaste or mouth rinse
  • Get professional exam and cleanings every 6 months

Our doctors trust and recommend Sonicare products because they help maintain excellent oral hygiene at home. For added convenience, we carry some of the most popular models on the market today, such as the new Sonicare DiamondClean. Our staff can discuss the features and benefits of each model and help you decide which one is best.
