Our Periodontal Procedures

Maintaining a healthy, functional smile requires comprehensive care, and our practice offers a variety of periodontal services, including dental implants and implant dentures.

Dental Implants

Missing or severely damaged teeth can negatively impact your quality of life. Dental implants are a durable, long-lasting solution for tooth replacement. Dr. Ryan Clagett surgically inserts a small titanium post is inserted into the jaw. The post then integrates with existing bone to function as a tooth root and support a permanent crown. Once the crown is attached, you can treat the dental implant just like a natural tooth, and you can return to eating the foods you enjoy. With proper care, your dental implants may last a lifetime.

Implant Dentures

A major frustration with traditional dentures is that they can become uncomfortable or shift around in your mouth. Implant dentures are held securely in place using four strategically placed dental implants. The implants help prevent bone loss and can be used to support a full arch of upper or lower teeth. Implant dentures are custom-made to fit your mouth and leave you with a beautiful, full, natural-looking smile. You can eat, drink, and laugh with more confidence knowing your teeth are firmly attached and will not slip or flop around. Implant dentures can also be more cost-effective than other options.
