An alternative way to restore a missing tooth may be an Implant.
Implants are a screw like device made of titanium, which is surgically placed in the bone. The procedure is usually performed by an oral surgeon or a periodontist. Once the implant is placed, it is left alone for a period of 3-6 months for healing to occur and for the implant to integrate with the bone in the area. Once this is done, the implant is again uncovered and a healing head is placed on top. At this time, the patient will see Dr. Zamani, who will take the healing cap off and fabricate a crown to fit over the implant. Once fabricated, the crown is cemented on to the head of the implant. Once the crown is placed, it feels just like a natural tooth to the patient. The major advantage of an implant is the fact that a tooth is restored back to original health, without disturbing the adjacent teeth involved in the area.
"After years of having dental fears Dr. Zamani and his team made me feel so comfortable and relaxed that seeing the Dentist is no longer an emotional roller coaster for me. Thank you Dr. Zamani for helping me."
