Dental Implants in Parkville, MD - Gregory Puccio DMD

Sometimes, whether due to tooth decay or trauma, there is simply no way to save a tooth. When tooth loss occurs, you have several options. Some patients choose a bridge, partial dentures, or full dentures. 

However, many patients today prefer modern dental implants to replace missing teeth. This dental health solution involves state-of-the-art implants that replace the tooth down to the tooth root.

Dental implants are surgically inserted into the bone of your jaw to provide excellent stability. Although most patients are excellent candidates for dental implants, implants will not be an option for everyone. Dr. Puccio is happy to work with you to discern the best replacement options in your case.

Why Choose Dental Implants?

Dental implants have transformed the world of tooth replacement, offering a wealth of benefits and a lasting solution to dental challenges. These remarkable devices are more than just prosthetic teeth; they are a gateway to a confident, comfortable, and beautiful smile.

Dental implants offer several advantages. Dental implants are renowned for their stability. Once placed in your jawbone, they become a firm fixture, eliminating worries of slippage or discomfort. This stability allows you to enjoy life without the fear of dental mishaps, enhancing your self-assured presence in social situations.

Additionally, dental implants are virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth in both appearance and function. Patients report implants as comfortable, and they are highly satisfied with the aesthetics.

The dental implant procedure is both safe and virtually painless, offering a smooth transition to a brighter, healthier smile. Dr. Puccio and our team prioritize your comfort, ensuring the process is as comfortable as possible.

We are your trusted partner on the journey to a revitalized smile and excellent oral health. Reach out to us at (410) 882-9620 to explore the possibilities of dental care based on your dental needs.

What Is It Like to Get a Dental Implant?

The journey commences with a thorough initial consultation. You’ll get a customized treatment plan that outlines the number of implants you’ll need and the timeline for the procedure.

The procedure involves the surgical placement of the dental implant(s) into your jawbone. While this might sound daunting, rest assured that it is a safe and virtually painless process. Our priority is to ensure your comfort.

Following implant placement, a healing period begins. During this phase, the implant fuses with your jawbone, a process known as osseointegration. This ensures the implant’s stability and durability.

Once the implant has been securely integrated, you’ll return for the final step. Dr. Puccio will attach the custom-crafted, lifelike crown to the implant, completing your revitalized smile.

You may experience minimal discomfort after the procedure, but it’s typically manageable with over-the-counter pain relievers. Just be keen to observe oral hygiene and go for regular checkups.

Don’t wait to regain your confident smile. Contact Gregory Puccio, DMD, at (410) 882-9620 to begin your towards a permanent, vibrant smile.
