MARIETTA, Ga., March 27, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Morton General and Implant Dentistry is looking to raise awareness in the Marietta and East Cobb areas about their comprehensive dental implant services. They offer both dental implant surgery as well as permanent restoration services all in one location.
Dental implants are a wonderful option to replace missing teeth. They are actually replacement tooth roots surgically placed. Implants provide a strong foundation for fixed (permanent) or removable replacement teeth that are made to match your natural teeth.
Morton General and Implant Dentistry has a periodontist on staff. Dr. Shelly Montes performs the dental implant surgery right in the office. This is followed by permanent restorative work done by Dr. Clifford Morton. Dr. Clifford Morton says, “In many cases, dental implant surgery and permanent restoration must be completed in different offices, as two specialists are required. However, at Morton General and Implant Dentistry, the entire process can be completed in one location.”
For implants to be successful, you must have adequate bone in the jaw. If necessary, you may need to have bone placed during the extraction procedure and/or at the time of implant placement. Pain is a common concern among patients who are considering dental implants. Actually, most patients say that the procedure was much easier than they expected. Sedation is always an option, however most patients do not find it necessary.
The general dental implant process can vary depending upon specific client needs. Typically, the entire implant process takes from 6-9 months from start to finish. Patients will never be left with a void in their smile. Dr. Morton will make temporary crowns or appliance to wear during the healing process.
