Implant Dentists in Gilbert Arizona

Implant dentists in Gilbert, Arizona are not all alike

When you look for implant dentists in Gilbert, Arizona, you couldn't do better than the Goodman Dental Center. Implant dentists in Gilbert use many shapes and sizes of implants for many different options. The beauty in the variety is the ability to customize treatment options to specific patients and specific situations. There are a number of implant dentists in Gilbert, but not all of them can give you the specialized care you need, with the variety of options available as those at the Goodman Dental Center.

Wouldn't an implant supercenter be better when it's all they do?

No. Almost all of the large dental implant centers offer only one treatment option. That defeats the purpose for which the various implants are designed. In these centers there is not enough customization to accommodate your specific needs. Also, dental implant supercenters have no follow-up or continued care from the center. They do not take responsibility for their work and leave it all to the referring dentist (if there is one) to take responsibility for aftercare or any corrections and adjustments. Of course, referring dentists are not in the business of doing that for them.

Implant dentists in Gilbert, such as those at the Goodman Dental Center, are trained to know the difference and make specific choices based on your specific needs. One size does not fit all when it comes to implants any more than one size fits all when it comes to buying a tuxedo.

Dental implants are marvelous innovations that provide the ability to correct dental conditions better than ever in the history of dentistry. It is a disservice to a patient not to make available all the treatment options. The focus at the Goodman Dental Center is always on what is right for the patient—not what is right to do as many procedures per day as possible. A patient has to invest too much time and money into the corrective procedures not to be afforded the very best care with the very best judgment.

What types of implants are there and what do they do?

There are five basic types of implants and each one of them has a specific use. Large discount implant supercenters usually only make one option available for all treatment choices. That can be a problem.

A Root-form titanium dental implant is placed into the jawbone and looks much like a drive nail or tiny screw. Of all dental implants, these are the most frequently used. A plate-form dental implant has a prong, sometimes two, so it can be inserted vertically into the jawbone. Overall the implant is shaped like a triangle.

A sub-periosteal dental implant is the choice when a patient does not have enough bone present in the jaw to accommodate the other types of implants. Instead of being placed inside the jawbone, this implant can be attached over it.

A Ramus-frame dental implant anchors dentures when there is a thin. The dentist places the implant, itself, at the back of the jaw near the chin on both sides. Then, a denture is attached to a strip of metal that will rest just above the gum line when it is healed. A Transosseous dental implant is not used very often, but when it is, it would be used on the lower jaw where the base of the implant has to be bolt-secured to the jawbone and spans the full area of the lower jaw's bite.

Is any one of them better?

Yes, but what makes them better is the specificity to the correction of the specific problem. When it comes to using dental implants, the choice should be what works best with the existing jawbone, the area needing correction, and the extent of the correction. Again, where some dental implant centers offer the same treatment option to everyone, they are not taking advantage of what the various implants are designed to specifically.
