Dental Implants

Dental implants are a permanent and appealing solution to replace missing or extracted teeth. They are better than other alternatives like bridges because no additional teeth need to be altered to place the new tooth.

The entire implant process is performed over the course of a few months. The first part of the process is to install the implant itself, where a screw is placed into the jaw bone. An incision is made in the gum so that the implant can be inserted. Multiple implants can be placed at once if necessary. After the implants are placed the gums are sutured.

The implant must be allowed about 3-6 months to heal, and during this time the jaw bone will form around the implant in a process called osseointegration. During this healing time you can have temporary crowns installed so that you can eat and speak normally and maintain a proper aesthetic appearance for your smile.

After the implant has healed it is time to place an abutment on the implant. The abutment serves as the base for your new tooth. One this is placed an impression of the abutment is taken and is used to create your permanent restoration. Some offices have an onsite lab to create the crown, but others will have to send it to an outside lab. Once the restoration is completed you can return to the office to attach the restoration permanently. Your smile will look just like it used to, and after a short period of getting used to the implant it will feel just like one of your own teeth.

  • "I was having some tooth pain and the staff got me in within very quickly. The office staff was super efficient and the Doctor came out to greet me before I went in. She was extremely thorough and was one of the kindest Doctors I’ve ever been to and answered all of my questions thoroughly and was very patient. I highly recommend her services !"

Dr. Lindsey Sanders was incredibly flexible along with her assistant to aid me in accomplishing my dental goals. The hygienist is always very professional and does excellent cleanings.

  • "I have been going here since I was a little girl. I stopped while I was in the Marine Corps, but now that I have finished my time in service I needed a dentist again. So I chose to go back to what felt comfortable! I was originally always seen by Dr. Nelson Sanders, but now his daughter has come into the family business and she took good care of me. I am glad that I will continue seeing a dentist that I feel comfortable and safe with!"

  • "Both Lindsey and Dr. Sanders are amazing! I went to them after being told elsewhere I was going to need over 10k in dental work. They worked with me to make a plan that made better sense and was way more affordable. I have always HATED going to the dentist, but these two, and their nurse Michelle, are the best around. I'm so glad I found them and their practice."

  • "I was searching for a new dentist to go to and found Dr. Sanders through online searching and decided to check them out. I already went through a cleaning and a couple of fillings and a deep clean in one area that I had sensitivity, and after receiving that care and getting to know both Lindsey and Nelson Sanders, these guys are really awesome and love the work they do. Everyone is so professional and loving and caring and they do absolutely wonderful dental work. I would recommend this place to anyone."
