If you are one of the 178 million Americans with at least one missing tooth, you don’t have to just live with it. By working with a Phoenix dental implant specialist, you can get a complete, natural-looking smile back and actually keep it for the rest of your life.
There are plenty of tooth replacement options out there. At Aria Dental Implant Center, dental implants are what Dr. Joe Mehranfar reaches for first, and after placing over 20,000 implants throughout his career, he has good reasons for that.
Dental Implants Restore Full Function
Missing teeth make everyday things harder than they should be. Chewing, talking, smiling without thinking about it. If you’re missing multiple teeth you may have honestly forgotten what it feels like to bite into something substantial or laugh at a joke without covering your mouth.
Implants fix that. The implant itself is inserted into the jaw where it fuses with the bone, replacing the missing root. A custom crown goes on top, made to look and feel like a real tooth. If you’re missing most or all of your teeth, implant supported dentures or All-on-4 may be the better conversation. Either way the result is far more durable and reliable than traditional dentures or bridges. Most patients say they stop thinking about their teeth entirely after treatment, which is kind of the whole point.
They Last a Lifetime
This is the part that surprises people most. Implants are not a temporary patch. They’re permanently integrated into your jawbone. With proper oral hygiene and a skilled surgeon placing them, dental implants can genuinely last the rest of your life. Dr. Joe has performed over 2,500 All-on-4 treatments alone. This is well-worn territory for him and his team.
They Look and Feel Completely Natural
Nobody is going to know. The shape, color, and contour of each restoration is customized specifically to your mouth. Aria’s in-house digital lab handles that process, which is part of why most patients receive their final zirconia teeth within 14 days. Once the implant fuses with the bone it becomes a permanent part of your jaw, and it feels that way too. Patients who spent years hiding their smile are often genuinely caught off guard by how normal everything feels.
