Traditional Root Form Implants

This time-tested solution utilizes a sturdy, biocompatible post that integrates completely with your jawbone, providing an exceptionally strong, stable foundation for a custom crown or bridge that functions exactly like a natural tooth.
Mini Implants

If you have experienced bone loss or are looking for a less invasive alternative, mini implants offer a slender design that can often be placed in a single visit. They are an excellent, highly efficient option for securely locking loose dentures into place.

Whether you prefer a light calming sedative or wish to sleep peacefully through your procedure using IV sedation, we ensure your journey to a complete smile is entirely stress-free.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What should I expect regarding comfort during and after the procedure?
A: Your comfort is our primary focus. During the actual procedure, the treatment area is completely numbed with advanced local anesthetics, meaning you should feel zero sharp pain, only a sensation of mild pressure. For the days following the appointment, any minor swelling or vulnerability is easily managed with standard over-the-counter or prescribed medication. If you experience anxiety about the process, our specialized sedation options are designed to keep you so deeply relaxed that the entire visit passes by comfortably and smoothly.
Q: Am I a good candidate for implants if I have bone loss?
A: Yes, very often you are! While traditional implants require a certain amount of bone density, our mini dental implants are specifically designed to provide incredible stability for patients with less available bone structure, often bypassing the need for complex bone grafting.
Q: How long do dental implants last?
A: With routine brushing, flossing, and regular checkups at Linden Oaks Dental, the implant post itself is designed to fuse with your jawbone and last for the rest of your life. It is the closest thing medicine has to giving you a natural tooth back.
