Keep Your Smile Bright!

A dental implant is an artificial tooth root that is placed into your jaw to hold a replacement tooth or bridge. Dental implants may be an option for people who have lost a tooth or teeth due to periodontal disease, an injury or some other reason.

Implant Dentistry

Restore your smile and regain your confidence with Kerri L Lopez, DMD, PC. Our experienced team specializes in providing high-quality dental implant solutions to help you achieve a natural-looking and long-lasting smile.

Dental implants are a permanent and effective solution for replacing missing teeth. Whether you’re missing a single tooth or multiple teeth, our skilled implant dentists will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.

At Kerri L Lopez, DMD, PC, we use the latest technology and techniques to ensure that your implant procedure is comfortable and successful. With dental implants, you can enjoy the freedom to eat, speak, and smile with confidence again.

We do restore implants and would work closely with a periodontist or oral surgeon who would surgically place the implant first.

Dentists have used dental implants for many years and implant technology continues to advance. They’re one of the most reliable ways to replace missing teeth.
Discomfort can vary between people, however most individuals report getting their dental implant was much less uncomfortable than they anticipated it to be. During the surgical dental implant procedure, the dentist will give you an anesthetic, so you should feel minimal discomfort if any.
Several factors determine the dental implant timeline:

  • Your dental health
  • Which teeth are replaced
  • The number of teeth involved
  • If you’ll require a tooth extraction before the implant placement

    The dentist restores your mouth with an implant in two phases and the entire process can take around 3-9 months. It could take even longer if you have an extraction that has to heal, or if you needed bone grafting before the dentist placed the implant.
