Smile Gallery: Dental Implants

A deep cavity and crack required that this tooth be removed. After healing, a dental implant was placed followed by a custom porcelain crown. The color match was excellent!

This lovely woman came to us with a couple big problems. She previously had a front tooth pulled due to a large abscess and had decay under a temporary bridge. The large abscess resulted in bone destruction. The first picture shows the incisor tooth being replaced by a temporary bridge. A dental implant was placed for the missing tooth and allowed to heal. A bone graft was placed at the same time as the dental implant to replace bone that was lost from the infection. After healing and allowing bone to fuse with the implant, a porcelain crown was ...

This gentleman had a front tooth removed due to a fractured root. Due to an infection, the tooth was removed and the bone and gums were allowed to heal. A dental implant was placed by Dr. Brad Jordan and then a custom crown was made. The replaced tooth looks very natural and functions like a real tooth!

This pleasant woman came to us missing two of her upper left teeth.  At that time, she was wearing a flipper to replace the teeth but admitted that she would cover her mouth when she smiled and laughed.  Dr. Jordan placed 2 dental implants in the area and allowed the area to heal.  An impression (mold) was taken and 2 custom abutments and 2 porcelain crowns were placed.  She was ecstatic with the result and no longer felt like she needed to cover her mouth when she smiled!

This young lady developed decay and a loose post under a crown. Unfortunately, the tooth could not be repaired and was removed. After a period of healing, a dental implant was placed by Dr. Brad Jordan. The final porcelain crown matches the crowns on her other front teeth very well.

This wonderful patient came to us with lower teeth that were not fixable and a broken upper denture. Dr. Jordan devised a plan that took into consideration her goals, finances and cosmetics. Her lower teeth were removed and during the same appointment, two dental implants were put in. After healing, new upper and lower dentures were made. The lower dentures clip into the implant attachments allowing for secure chewing.

This older gentleman had an upper denture that didn't stay in very well.  He had a difficult time chewing his food and reported that it would take a long time to eat because his dentures were not working for him.  To solve his problems, Dr. Jordan placed 4 dental implants in his upper jaw.  The dental implants were connected by a titanium bar to keep everything stable and allow locator attachments to be used.  A new upper denture was make that clips into the locator attachments.  What a transformation!  The new denture requires quite a bit of force to remove ...

After years of suffering from loose dentures, four dental implants were placed. New upper and lower dentures were made that attached to the dental implants. After leaving Dr. Jordan, he went out and ate a steak for the first time in years!

This gentleman previously had a bridge to replace several of his back teeth. The bridge and its anchor teeth had to be removed due to decay. Dr. Jordan placed 2 dental implants, 1 of which required a sinus lift. After a period of healing, an impression was taken to fabricate 2 custom abutments and implant crowns. This man can now chew on the left side.

This wonderful patient came to us all the way from Colorado to have a dental implant done. At her first evaluation appointment, an x-ray was taken and Dr. Jordan determined that a minor sinus lift was needed to allow room for a dental implant. The sinus lift and insertion of the dental implant went perfectly! After healing, a tooth colored crown was placed on top of the implant and as you can see, it looks very life-like. She was very pleased.

This gentleman broke a lower incisor and the tooth could not be fixed. The tooth was removed and a narrow diameter implant was placed and allowed to heal. After osseointegration of the implant, an impression (mold) was taken. From the impression, a custom abutment and full zirconia crown were made. The result is life-like and strong. Zirconia crowns resist fracture and wear similar to natural teeth.
