Dental Implants
Dental implants are the #1 recommended tooth replacement solution – by doctors and patients alike. Unlike traditional restorations that only replace the crown or the visible part of the tooth, dental implants replace the root of the tooth which is essential if you wish to maintain a healthy, functioning smile.
When missing teeth are allowed to remain missing, there are many consequences. Surrounding teeth will begin to shift and rotate, which can compromise your bite. Without the support of the tooth root, the underlying jawbone eventually begins to deteriorate, which is what causes that sunken face appearance you may have seen in patients who have lost teeth.
Dental implants can help protect the integrity of the rest of your teeth, prevent bone loss, and serve as anchors for beautiful, natural looking restorations like crowns and stabilized dentures! We’re happy to be able to surgically place and restore dental implants at Whalen Dentistry.
- Secured restorations that look, feel & function like natural teeth
- All-On-4® for stabilized implant-supported dentures
- Advanced technology for precision placement
- Mini implants for patients with bone loss
- Compassionate care every step of the way

WHY OUR PATIENTS SMILE
“The staff were more than pleasant and took a gentle approach to a situation in which I do not feel very comfortable. The exam was extremely thorough and their conclusions were expressed very clearly and helpfully. I had the sense that they wanted to be sure that I felt a part of the decision-making process regarding any future procedures that may need to be done.”
