A New Smile is Just a
Dental Implant Away
Dental Implants Provide a
Smile that Lasts a Lifetime
Given the role a healthy smile plays in your self-confidence and quality of life, tooth loss can have far-reaching consequences. Just one or two missing teeth can negatively impact your ability to chew food and make you feel too embarrassed to smile. Missing most or all your teeth can hurt your personal, social, and professional life and cause changes to your facial appearance, a decline in your general health, and increased discomfort. If you’re one of the millions of Americans living with tooth loss, perhaps you’ve wondered if dental implants are the right option for you. Most patients with good dental health and sufficient jawbone density are candidates for dental implants in Philadelphia, PA. Even if your bone density/volume is insufficient, our experienced implant dentist Dr. William Kessler can perform a bone graft to rebuild the underlying bone so you can qualify for the number one tooth replacement option. At Center One Dental Associates, we’ve seen how dental implants transformed our patients’ smiles and outlook on life, and look forward to helping you achieve a new smile and quality of life with this permanent solution!
What are Dental Implants?
A dental implant consists of a biocompatible screw-like post that functions as a prosthetic tooth root. The crown is the false tooth that replaces the missing tooth above the gum line. Between the post and crown, an abutment connects the two primary components. Once secured in your jawbone, dental implants are the most versatile tooth replacement because they can replace any number of missing teeth. This permanent solution requires the precision of a skilled implant dentist and advanced surgical technology to optimize treatment outcomes and long-term success. When shortcuts are taken, the repercussions can be serious, including painful nerve damage, persistent infection, and even implant failure. Dr. Kessler routinely provides dental implant treatment across a variety of cases, utilizing state-of-the-art technologies and high-quality materials for exceptional outcomes. He also uses Perio Protect® therapy, a proven noninvasive gum treatment that helps reverse inflammation associated with both periodontal disease and peri-implantitis.

Your Custom Dental Implant Options
Dental implants can replace a single missing tooth, support a bridge or partial denture, or be used to replace an entire upper or lower arch. For patients with many missing teeth or those who are completely edentulous (no teeth), full-mouth dental implants are a life-changing solution. All-on-4 to 6 full mouth dental implants only require four to six implants per arch to support beautiful, natural-looking new teeth. We also offer Zest Dental Solutions® LOCATOR All-in-One Implant Systems, a type of hybrid denture that enables patients to easily transition between removable and fixed solutions without changing the abutments.

Treatment Process
Your journey to a restored smile starts with a consultation with Dr. Kessler. During your first visit, he’ll discuss your dental and medical history, perform an oral exam and take digital X-rays. The X-rays help confirm if a failing tooth needs to be extracted. You’ll also likely get a scan with cone-beam computed tomography to analyze your bone structure, nerve tissue, and sinus cavities. The 3D scan is also instrumental in creating surgical guides that enable more accurate, minimally invasive, and streamlined implant surgery with predictable outcomes. With guided implant surgery, Dr. Kessler uses highly sophisticated dental instruments to make a tiny hole in predetermined sites in the jawbone with the strongest bone density. The majority of patients who receive dental implants say the procedure isn’t painful. Most patients getting full-mouth dental implants in Philadelphia, PA opt for IV sedation, which induces a deep state of relaxation during surgery. Throughout the procedure, your blood pressure, pulse, and oxygen levels are continuously monitored to ensure your safety and comfort. After implants fuse with your underlying bone over three to six months, you’ll receive your final restoration.
Why Choose Dental Implants?
Although implant placement requires brief outpatient surgery, implants are considered more conservative than traditional bridges or dentures because those prosthetics rely on existing biological structures for support. Bridges place an additional burden on modified crowned teeth that support them, while dentures wear down natural gum ridges and come with an array of issues. Common complaints among denture wearers include gum irritation, slippage, speech issues, food limitations, the need for messy adhesives, and undesirable facial changes caused by ongoing bone loss. Once implants fuse with your underlying jawbone, they feel completely natural and prevent further bone loss and encourage new growth. Single and full-mouth dental implants are permanently fixed and stable enough to restore over 99% of your natural biting and chewing power.
