Dental Implants

Our philosophy has always been to save teeth. However, when teeth are lost or failing, a dental implant may be the best option for tooth replacement. Dr. Apfel has extensive experience in dental implant restorations and reconstructions. He was the first dentist on the east coast of the U.S. to simultaneously restore complete upper and lower dentitions in the same patient in one day (Teeth in an Hour). He has lectured nationally and has provided training programs for dentists and laboratory technicians on the restoration of implants. If you are considering dental implants, we will perform an examination and advise you if you are a candidate at your consultation.

Dental Implants: What Are They?

Dental implants are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth. With the high predictability and success rate, dental implants are an excellent option for tooth replacement. The person who has lost teeth regains the ability to eat virtually anything and can smile with the confidence of knowing that his or her teeth appear natural. Furthermore, dental implants not only replace the missing teeth, they help preserve the patient’s jaw bone providing more years of dental health.
