Lexington KY Dental Implants

Head and shoulders photo of middle-aged couple smiling at the beach, for information on dental implants from Kentucky Dental Group of Lexington.Dental implants are the most effective and natural way to replace missing teeth. They enhance your smile, improve your oral health, and can increase your self-confidence. At Kentucky Dental Group, we provide dental implants of the highest quality for a healthy smile that will last.

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots, usually made of titanium. The fixtures are surgically placed in your jawbone. After the fixture and your jawbone fuse, a dental crown is attached to the top of the implant.

They provide a solution for replacing missing teeth in a variety of cases, including:

After the dental implant fuses to the bone, a crown is secured to it.

  • Single tooth – A single fixture will replace a missing tooth.
  • Multiple teeth – A fixture can be used for each missing tooth, or an implant-supported bridge can be used.
  • Dentures – Two or more implants can be used to stabilize dentures.

Why Are They So Effective?

Dental implants are effective for several reasons:

  • Function – The “root” is implanted in your jawbone for maximum stability. It will be comfortable and secure.
  • Feel – The stability of implants makes them feel like your own natural teeth.
  • Oral health – When your teeth are missing, the jawbone beneath the empty space begins to shrink. Dental implants stimulate jawbone and prevent shrinkage.
  • Appearance – After a healing period, a lifelike dental crown is attached to the top of the fixture. The “root” will be beneath your gumline, so no one can tell that you’ve had a tooth replaced. Additionally, dental implants help your facial appearance. When all of your teeth are missing, as the jawbone shrinks your face will begin to sag. The artificial roots that stimulate jawbone will also help prevent facial collapse.

High-Quality Dental Implants

If you’re a thrifty shopper, be cautious about looking for bargain prices on dental implants. This treatment can last a lifetime only if a dentist uses high standards in selecting, planning for, and placing the fixtures.

At Kentucky Dental Group, we insist on the highest standards of care for tooth replacement. Our process includes:

  • Qualifying – We thoroughly review your medical and dental history to ensure you’re a candidate for this treatment.
  • Planning – We use 3D Cone Beam technology for diagnostic studies. The technology makes your bone density, oral cavities, nerves, and other structures clearly visible for precise implant placement.
  • Placement – We work closely with periodontists and oral surgeons to provide optimal placement of the fixtures.
  • Restoring – We only use high-quality dental ceramics to craft crowns for your dental implants. We select high-quality composite teeth for dentures.

About Us
Upon arrival, our staff will great you.

Upon arrival, our staff will greet you and give you a tour of the office. After we talk with you about your health history and dental health goals, the dentist will perform a comprehensive evaluation, including a thorough hard and soft tissue exam. After the hygienist cleans your teeth, we will share the results of your exam and, if necessary, explore your options for treatment.

We offer same-day appointments for dental emergencies.

“After an accident that cracked my front teeth, the emergency room plastic surgeon recommended Dr. Weaver. I'm so glad he did! Dr. Weaver put me at ease through multiple procedures and appointments. He went above and beyond explaining each one and I am very happy with the results! The office staff was friendly and efficient and there was never a wait for an appointment. My entire family now goes to Dr. Weaver. Wish I could give him more than five stars!”
