Replacing Missing Teeth with the Gold Standard in Dental Care

Do you hesitate to smile due to a lost tooth? Have you started avoiding certain foods or feeling self-conscious in everyday moments?

Tooth loss doesn’t just change how your smile looks—it can also impact your ability to maintain good oral health. 
Missing teeth can also lead to bone loss and shifting of your remaining teeth over time.

Disha Pennington, DDS, uses advanced technology, precise planning, and personalized care to create implant solutions that last and feel like your own.

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are small titanium posts that replace missing tooth roots. 

They create a strong foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures when placed into the jawbone securely. 

Implants help preserve jaw strength, prevent bone loss, and support long-term oral health because they integrate with your natural bone. 

They look, feel, and function like natural teeth once restored, giving you back stability without compromising neighboring teeth.

Why Dental Implants Are a Long-Term Solution

The benefits of dental implants go beyond a restored smile—they also help protect your overall oral health. 
Implants are anchored directly into the jawbone and offer lasting strength and support, unlike traditional dentures or bridges.

Here’s why implants are considered a long-term investment in your smile.

The Dental Implant Process at Disha Pennington, DDS

Every implant journey with Dr. Pennington starts with careful planning and personalized care.

Initial Consultation

The process begins with a detailed exam, digital imaging, and a full oral health evaluation.

Guided Implant Surgery

Dr. Pennington places the implant with extreme precision using advanced guided technology.

This approach minimizes discomfort, speeds healing, and improves long-term results.

Healing and Integration

The implant needs time to integrate with your jawbone after placement.

This healing phase is critical to creating a stable foundation for your new tooth.

Dental Implant FAQs

How Long Does the Dental Implant Process Take?

The entire process can span several months. Three to six months is typically required for the implant to fuse with the bone and for healing after it is placed. This is called osseointegration. The replacement tooth is attached once healed.

Does Insurance Cover Dental Implants?

Coverage varies by insurance plan. Some plans may cover a portion of the procedure, while others may not. It’s advisable to consult your insurance provider to understand your benefits.

How Do I Care for My Dental Implants?

Caring for implants involves regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups, similar to natural teeth. Avoiding tobacco and maintaining good oral hygiene will help ensure the success of your implants.

How Soon Should I Consider Getting a Dental Implant After Tooth Loss?

It’s best to start planning for an implant soon after losing a tooth to help preserve your bone health. Waiting too long can lead to bone loss, which may require additional treatments like bone grafting.
