Replacing Missing Teeth Implants Support a Variety of Restorations

Single Tooth
A single implant and custom dental crown replace a tooth from top to root. A major advantage of this method is that nearby teeth do not need to be altered to support a replacement tooth.

Row of Teeth
If you are missing a row of teeth, an implant-supported bridge will restore your smile without having to reshape two otherwise healthy teeth to support both ends of a dental bridge.

Dentures
Multiple implants can be used to support an entire denture. Once secured to implants, these dentures will never slip and the implants will help avoid the bone loss that occurs with missing teeth.
"Awesome"
Dr. Cushman is one of my favorite people now. Her staff is awesome too. I had a root scaling and planing done a few months ago. This procedure takes at least 4 visits and Dr. Cushman informed me that it is possible to complete in one visit. On my second visit I had a cleaning and a periodontal splint put on.
View On YelpJust had my crown lengthening done... This office is amazing.. Even though I hate going to the dentist.. Dr Cushman and her staff truly made it into a pleasant one. Providing a blanket and lavender scented mask for the procedure almost made me sleepy. Thanks Dr Cushman.. I'm so happy I found your office!
