Dental Implants in Scottsdale, AZ

Dental implants are a great way to replace missing teeth and also provide a fixed solution to having removable partial or complete dentures. Implants provide excellent support and stability for these dental appliances.

Dental implants are artificial roots and teeth (usually titanium) that are surgically placed into the upper or lower jaw bone by a dentist or Periodontist - a specialist of the gums and supporting bone. The teeth attached to implants are very natural looking and often enhance or restore a patient’s smile!

Dental implants are strong and durable and will last many years. On occasion, they will have to be re-tightened or replaced due to normal wear.

Reasons for dental implants:

Replace one or more missing teeth without affecting adjacent teeth.
Resolve joint pain or bite problems caused by teeth shifting into missing tooth space.
Restore a patient’s confident smile.
Restore chewing, speech, and digestion.
Restore or enhance facial tissues.
Support a bridge or denture, making it more secure and comfortable.

What does getting dental implants involve?

The process of getting implants requires a number of visits over several months.

X-rays and impressions (molds) are taken of the jaw and teeth to determine bone, gum tissue, and spacing available for an implant. While the area is numb, the implant will be surgically placed into the bone and allowed to heal and integrate itself for up to six months. Depending on the type of implant, a second surgery may be required in order to place the “post” that will hold the artificial tooth in place. With other implants the post and anchor are already attached and placed at the same time.

After several weeks of healing the artificial teeth are made and fitted to the post portion of the anchor. Because several fittings may be required, this step may take one to two months to complete. After a healing period, the artificial teeth are securely attached to the implant, providing excellent stability and comfort to the patient.

You will receive care instructions when your treatment is completed. Good oral hygiene and eating habits, alongside regular dental visits, will aid in the life of your new implant.

After a dental accident, I’ve had four root canals done this year at Belmont Dentistry and could not have been happier. Dr. Sandhu is a total pro: he works quickly and makes what can be a sometimes awkward situation very comfortable for the patient. The pain during and after these fairly major surgeries has been *minimal*. His assistant Sierra’s kindness and expertise made everything go very smoothly. Cannot recommend this practice enough.

Quick, very experienced group, very nice. If in your insurance network definitely a go to. Although I don't recommend going without insurance because costs can be quite high for some services out of pocket if you don't have coverage. In house coverage is available at your discretion to help reduce uncovered costs at a annual renewal premium.

I am a first time patient, my sons (5 and 6 years old) and I just had our first appointment with Belmont Dentistry yesterday. I could not rave highly enough about the entire staff ( literally as you walk in...from the front desk admins to the dental assistants) and the owners. Everyone was so friendly and personable and all around good people. The ambience of the office is just divine and makes you feel like your at a spa! They even give you a tour of the facility and show you all the "high tech" dental stuff that I have no idea the names of, but it was really cool! And to top it all off they give you a cute little gift bag after the tour with all sorts of fun goodies for being a first time patient! Now onto the exam... this was my children's first time ever seeing a dentist and getting a cleaning done (My oldest just lost his first tooth this year). The staff who worked on them did an amazing job! They were very patient and understanding and it helped a lot that the owners have young children themselves. My kids weren't sacred and didn't cry at all. I was also was very happy with my cleaning and signed up for Invisalign! I've always wanted to fix my teeth but never found the time. Dr. Ambreen walked me through the process of Invisalign and was so helpful answering all of my questions. So overall 5 STARS and a big THANK YOU to everyone there! :)
