Permanent Tooth Replacement for a Beautiful, Healthy Smile in Danforth & Greektown

Dental implants are the only permanent way to replace missing teeth and restore full function for better oral health and a gorgeous smile. Dental implants are small titanium posts placed in the jawbone to replace the roots of missing teeth. The implants fuse with the surrounding bone, preserving bone structure and providing a stable foundation for dental restorations to replace the visible portion of missing teeth. With implant teeth, you can eat all the foods you love, smile confidently, and enjoy life, knowing you no longer have to worry about missing teeth or slipping dentures.

Dr. Hashemi performs the entire dental implant process, from surgically placing each tooth implant in the jawbone to attaching the final restorations. If a patient suffers from gum disease or other periodontal issues, Dr. Hashemi collaborates with a trusted periodontist to ensure a successful outcome and healthy results.

Dental Implant Options

Single Tooth Implant

A single tooth implant consists of a titanium implant in the jawbone attached to a dental crown designed to match the color and shape of your remaining natural teeth. If you have lost a single tooth or must have one extracted due to injury or severe tooth decay, a single tooth implant can help preserve your smile and prevent the loss of adjacent teeth due to bone deterioration.

Bridge Implant

A bridge implant “bridges” the gap in your mouth if you are missing three or four teeth in a row. An implant is placed in the jawbone at either end of the row of missing teeth to replace the missing tooth roots. A dental bridge designed to replace the missing teeth is then permanently attached. The bridge implant allows Dr. Hashemi to replace multiple teeth with fewer implants, reducing your costs while preserving the jawbone.

Full Arch Dental Implants

Full arch dental implants replace all the teeth in the upper or lower jaw with a complete arch of replacement teeth. Dr. Hashemi surgically implants multiple dental implants in the jawbone to support an arch of replacement teeth resembling a denture. The replacement teeth are permanently attached, providing comfort and full bite force while preserving the jawbone.

All-on-X Dental Implants

The All-on-X procedure is a precision implant surgery that allows Dr. Hashemi to place a full arch of dental restorations on between four and six implants in the jawbone. This reduces the number of implants needed and the invasiveness of the surgery. All-on-X dental implants reduce the need for bone grafting for many patients.

How painful is getting a dental implant?

Before placing a dental implant, the area is numbed with a local anesthetic. Depending on your comfort level, Dr. Hashemi may also use nitrous oxide or oral sedation to relax you during the procedure. You will not feel any pain during the surgery.

During the first few days of recovery, you will experience some mild to moderate pain and swelling that is easily controlled with over-the-counter medication and ice packs. Most people are pleasantly surprised by the minimal level of discomfort.

Why should I get dental implants?

Each individual’s reason for getting dental implants is unique and personal. Our patients often tell us they choose implant teeth because it is the most natural-looking option and allows them to eat, speak, and enjoy life without worrying about dentures or missing teeth. Others prefer implants because they are the healthiest option if they want to preserve the health and contours of their jawbone and facial features. Dental implants may be the right choice for you if you want a long-lasting, healthy solution to replace missing teeth.
