NovaPerio – Leaders in Implant Dentistry

A dental implant is a small, durable titanium post that acts as an artificial tooth root. It is surgically placed into the jawbone where a tooth is missing. Over time, the bone naturally fuses to the implant in a process called osseointegration, creating a strong, stable foundation. Once fully integrated, a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture is attached to the implant, restoring the look and function of a natural tooth.

Dental implants are considered the gold standard for tooth replacement because they replicate the entire tooth structure—not just the visible part—providing unmatched strength and longevity.

Interesting Facts About Dental Implants

High Success Rate: Dental implants have a success rate of over 95%, making them one of the most reliable dental treatments available.

Bone Preservation: Implants help prevent jawbone loss that typically occurs after tooth loss, preserving your facial structure and youthful appearance.

Durability: With proper care, implants can last 25 years or more—often a lifetime—outperforming traditional bridges and dentures.

Improved Quality of Life: Patients report improved comfort, confidence, and ability to chew a wide variety of foods compared to removable dentures.

No Impact on Adjacent Teeth: Unlike bridges, implants don’t require grinding down healthy neighboring teeth, preserving your natural smile.

At NovaPerio, Dr. Sperling and Dr. Yu offer personalized implant treatment plans, whether you’re missing one tooth or several. Here’s how dental implants can be tailored to your unique needs:

Single Tooth Implants

If you’re missing just one tooth, a single dental implant is the ideal replacement. It fills the gap without relying on or affecting neighboring teeth, and it looks and functions just like the real thing. This solution restores your bite, prevents bone loss, and blends naturally into your smile.

Multiple Tooth Implants

When two or more teeth are missing, several single implants can be placed to restore single implant crowns or implant-supported bridges. Unlike traditional bridges, these don’t require altering healthy teeth, and they help maintain proper alignment and jawbone health.

Full Arch Restoration: All-on-4® / All-on-X 

The All-on-X Hybrid Denture is a modern, fixed solution for patients who are missing most or all of their teeth. Unlike traditional removable dentures, this treatment uses a set number of dental implants (the “X” represents the number—typically 4, 5, or 6 implants) to securely anchor a full arch of natural-looking teeth.

Because the denture is supported by implants, it stays firmly in place—no slipping, no adhesives, and no taking it out at night. The hybrid design combines the strength of implants with the natural look of high-quality teeth, giving you the confidence to eat, smile, and speak comfortably.

Benefits of All-on-X Hybrid Dentures:

  • Permanent, non-removable solution
  • Stable and secure fit
  • Restores a natural smile and bite
  • Prevents bone loss in the jaw
  • More comfortable than traditional dentures
  • Long-lasting with proper care

This treatment is ideal for patients who want a stable, life-changing alternative to removable dentures and a solution that closely mimics natural teeth.
