How We Make Surgery Simple

One of the biggest breakthroughs in implant surgery is the development of dental implant guides. By using implant guides, we can more precisely place implants into the most ideal location of your jaw, thereby ensuring long-term success and patient safety. Guided implant surgery essentially removes all the guesswork from implant surgery. Virtually 90 percent of the actual work is already completed by the time you come into the office to have your implants placed! This leads to less time you have to sit in the dental chair, fewer appointments and the confidence knowing that you’re in safe hands.

Where do I get the crown for my dental implant?

This allows us to have a very hands-on approach when customizing your restorations, ensuring your new teeth match your smile goals and facial aesthetics.

Do I qualify for dental implants?

Thanks to sedation dentistry, having dental implants placed is not painful for most people. Our doctors are certified to offer you the most advanced and soothing sedation possible. For many patients, they simply feel a slight pressure at the site of their dental implant.
Can I have a tooth removed and an implant placed the same day?
Yes! Depending on your needs, we can offer you teeth in a day, which allows Dr. Skomial to extract teeth, place implants and restore them all during the same appointment!
How do I care for my dental implants?
The best way to ensure your implants last, is to treat them just how you would normal teeth. Regular brushing and flossing, along with routine dental appointments for checkups and cleaning can ensure you keep your implants for the rest of your life!

Receiving dental implants can be a life-changing experience. Those suffering from tooth loss or a failing smile may see immediate and significant changes in their daily lives as well as their health in the long-run. But when it comes to the surgery and treatment process, many find it to be daunting at first. Having a team you can trust and the technology to streamline your treatment from start to finish will make all the difference in your overall experience and your results.
Dr. Skomial believes in educating our patients and being as open and transparent about their treatments as possible, right from the beginning. At Roosevelt Island Advanced Dentistry, we can complete the entire procedure, from the first consultation to finalization of the dental crowns, in our state-of-the-art office. And, whether you have one missing tooth or a full arch of missing teeth, we offer everything from immediate single dental implants to full mouth dental implants restored.

Consultation

Every dental implant procedure begins with a personalized consultation with our doctors. After capturing high-quality, 3D images of your mouth using our cone beam CT scanner, we’ll be able to offer a truly customized treatment plan. We’ll then discuss your unique needs, wants and goals before determining which restorative solution is best for you. Since our digital imaging captures detailed images of your oral structures, we get a look at the density of your jawbone, position of nerves and other tooth roots. These images, along with cutting-edge implant surgical software, are used to pre-plan each step of your surgery. Before your next visit, we’ll create a computer-generated implant guide to improve the overall accuracy, safety and treatment time when placing your dental implants.

Dental Implant Surgery

Some patients may require one or more treatments before receiving dental implants. In many cases, these procedures can be completed in the same appointment as your surgery to eliminate return visits. We offer extractions of failing teeth, bone grafting and sinus lift. Beginning implant treatment with a healthy mouth is essential to ensure the long-term success of your dental implants. In most cases before you leave, we’ll place a new tooth or set of teeth to complete your smile.

Final Restoration

As your treatment site heals around your implants, you’ll continue to use your initial lifelike and functional restoration. After allowing time for your jawbone to heal and form a long-term and reliable bond with your dental implants, you’ll return to our office to receive this final restoration. With proper care, you can expect your natural-looking and reliable dental implants to last a lifetime.
