Dental Implants Service

Dental Implants in Scottsdale, AZ

At My Scottsdale Dentist, Dr. Steven H. Poulos, DDS, Dr. Erica Elannan, DDS, and Dr. Mike Wassef, DDS, ICOI, specializes in dental implants, a permanent solution for replacing missing teeth. Dental implants restore your smile, improve chewing ability, and help preserve the natural structure of your jaw and remaining teeth.

What Are Dental Implants?

A dental implant is a small titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone to replace a missing tooth root. Once the implant integrates with the bone, a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture is attached to restore function and appearance. Dental implants look, feel, and function like natural teeth, providing a long-lasting solution to tooth loss.

Benefits of Dental Implants

Permanent solution: Implants are designed to last many years, often a lifetime with proper care.
Natural appearance: Custom crowns, bridges, or dentures attach to implants for a seamless smile.
Preserve jawbone: Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss and maintaining facial structure.
Support surrounding teeth: Unlike traditional bridges, implants do not require grinding down neighboring teeth.
Improved function: Chew, speak, and smile confidently without worry about slipping or discomfort.

Who Is a Candidate for Dental Implants?

Most healthy adults with sufficient jawbone density are candidates for dental implants. During a consultation, our doctors will evaluate your oral health, bone structure, and overall health to determine the best implant solution.

Factors considered include:

Missing one or multiple teeth
Adequate jawbone for implant placement
Healthy gums and oral tissues
Commitment to good oral hygiene and regular dental visits

Dental Implant Process

Consultation & Planning: Dr. Poulos, Dr. Elannan, or Dr. Wassef will review your medical and dental history, take imaging, and create a personalized treatment plan.
Implant Placement: The titanium post is surgically placed into the jawbone.
Healing & Integration: Over several months, the implant fuses with the bone, providing a strong foundation.
Restoration: A custom crown, bridge, or denture is attached to the implant, completing your smile.
