• Dental Implants

  Are you considering dental implants to restore your smile and boost your confidence? At Monument Dental, we understand that the decision to get dental implants is significant, and we are here to guide you through every step of the process. Our specialized team is committed to providing you with the highest quality care, ensuring that your experience is both comfortable and successful. What Are Dental Implants? Dental implants are artificial tooth roots, similar in shape to screws. When dental implants are placed in your jawbone, they bond with your natural bone. They become a sturdy base for supporting one or more artificial teeth, known as crowns. Dental implants are a popular and effective long-term solution for people who suffer from missing teeth, failing teeth, or chronic dental problems. Benefits of Dental Implants Improved Appearance: Dental implants look and feel like your own teeth. Enhanced Comfort: Dental implants eliminate the discomfort of removable dentures. Speech Improvement: With poorly fitting dentures, the teeth can slip within the mouth causing you to mumble or slur your words. Dental implants allow you to speak without the worry. Durability: Implants are very durable and will last many years. With good care, many implants last a lifetime. The Dental Implant Procedure Receiving dental implants involves several steps and may require several months to complete. Here is a general overview of the process: Initial Consultation: This is the first step where Monument Dental will evaluate your dental and medical history, and determine if you are a good candidate for dental implants. Surgical Placement: The implant is surgically placed into your jawbone. This is done under local anesthesia to ensure your comfort. Osseointegration: Over the next few months, the implant will naturally bond with your jawbone in a process called osseointegration. Abutment Placement: Once the implant is securely bonded, a small connector post, called an abutment, is attached to hold the new tooth securely. Placement of Artificial Tooth: Finally, a custom-made crown is attached to the abutment, completing the restoration. Are You a Candidate for Dental Implants? Most individuals who are in good general health, have healthy gums, and have adequate bone to support an implant can consider dental implants. However, certain conditions such as uncontrolled diabetes, cancer, or radiation to the jaw may affect the success of the implant. Monument Dental will conduct a comprehensive evaluation to determine your suitability for the procedure. Why Choose Monument Dental At Monument Dental, we pride ourselves on delivering personalized care tailored to your specific needs. Our advanced technology and expertise ensure that you receive the most effective treatment available.

• Sedation Dentistry

Whether you’re dealing with dental anxiety, a low pain threshold, or have complex treatment needs, sedation dentistry can transform your experience. What is Sedation Dentistry? Sedation dentistry involves the use of medication to help patients relax during dental procedures.

At Monument Dental, Monument Dental utilizes various levels of sedation to meet your individual needs: Minimal sedation: You are awake but relaxed.

Types of Sedation Offered at Monument Dental Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas) Commonly used for minimal sedation, nitrous oxide is inhaled through a mask placed over your nose. It helps you relax while allowing you to remain awake and responsive. The effects wear off quickly, enabling you to drive home after the procedure. Oral Sedation Ranging from minimal to moderate sedation, oral medication is taken about an hour before your procedure. Although you remain awake, you will feel drowsy and may fall asleep during the procedure. A companion will be needed to drive you home. IV Sedation IV sedation allows for a deeper level of sedation. Administered through a vein, it works quickly, and the level of sedation can be adjusted by Dr. Koren during the procedure. You may not remember much of the experience, and a ride home will be necessary. Is Sedation Dentistry Safe? Yes, sedation dentistry is generally safe when administered by a trained professional.
