People in Bridgewater, NJ may lose teeth for all different reasons, ranging from traumatic accidents to untreated disease. Dental implants provide total restoration of form and function, allowing you to bite, chew, and smile with renewed confidence. At Ridge Oral Surgery, we are pleased to provide full root-to-crown restoration for patients throughout the Bridgewater area.


What Are Dental Implants?

For most patients, dental implants represent the top option for lasting, full-mouth rehabilitation. Implants replace your missing tooth roots, providing ongoing stimulation to preserve bone tissue, while also serving as steady anchor points for custom prosthetic teeth. With implants, you can enjoy a second chance at a complete smile.

Why Select Dental Implants Over Other Options?

Dental implants are considered to be the gold standard for replacing missing teeth, and in most cases are preferable to traditional bridges or dentures. 


Am I a Candidate for Dental Implants?

The best candidates for dental implants are missing teeth or anticipate having teeth extracted. Additionally, it is important to be in good health overall, without any unmanaged diabetes or untreated gum disease. Dental implant placement also requires adequate jawbone density, though missing bone can be regenerated with a bone graft when necessary.

Getting Started with Dental Implants

Your initial consultation will include a full evaluation of your teeth and jaw, verifying your eligibility for a safe, successful procedure. This is also a great opportunity for you to ask any questions you might have about the procedure.

Dental implant placement is performed with full sedation, ensuring you are comfortable throughout. The procedure usually lasts for an hour or two, though the timeline can vary depending on the number of implants being placed.

Post-Op and Recovery Timeline for Dental Implants

Dental implant recovery is usually fairly easy and takes just two or three days of rest and healing. After this point, you will likely feel ready to resume your normal school and work activities. A soft food and liquid diet is encouraged for the first week or so, and you can transition back to your normal diet as you feel ready. You will need to return for a final visit several months after initial implant placement, allowing us to remove your temporary replacement tooth and add a permanent prosthetic.
