Dental Services
We provide many different dental services to the residents of Stuart and Palm City, such as:
Dental implants are an investment in long term oral health. From single implant crowns, to implant supported bridges and implant supported dentures, dental implants are a great long term solution for tooth replacement.
Why Should I Choose Dental Implants?
Dental implants mimic natural tooth roots. Because of these artificial roots, dental implants stimulate bone growth in the jawbone. This prevents facial sagging, and the sunken appearance that comes with extensive tooth loss over time. Dental implants also provide the most natural appearance, function just like the natural teeth, and can last a lifetime with proper care. The maintenance for dental implants is much simpler than other restorations. Keep brushing at least twice per day, and flossing at least once every evening, just like with your natural teeth.
Dental implants can last a lifetime, and their durability make them the best investment in your long term oral health. Traditional dentures and bridges often become uncomfortable. They must be refitted and replaced periodically, requiring more appointments, and more costs. The only appointments and costs after dental implants are placed are crown replacements around every 10 to 15 years. Dental implants require much fewer appointments and costs over their lifetime. They're the most secure, durable, and functional restoration available, and the best investment in our patient's oral health.
Implant Supported Dentures and Implant Supported Bridges
All on 4 implants replace an entire arch of teeth using only four implants to secure each denture. Traditional dental implants can use up to six to eight implant posts. The All on 4 provides a faster procedure, and faster recovery time for our patients, but still provides the jaw stimulation and bone growth of implants. All on 4 combines the benefits of dentures and dental implants without the drawbacks of traditional dentures.
In addition, bridges may be secured by dental implants as well. This avoids the wear on adjacent teeth that support traditional bridges.

How Long Do Dental Implants Last?
Implants can last a lifetime with proper oral hygiene. Periodontal care is crucial to the longevity of dental implants. The crowns that replicate the tops of natural teeth typically need to be replaced every 10 to15 years.
How Often Should I Visit the Dentist?
We recommend that our patients come in for a professional cleaning, examination, and cancer screening every six months. However, certain conditions require more frequent visits.
Do I Really Need to Floss?
Flossing is absolutely necessary. Flossing removes plaque and bacteria from between the teeth, and most cavities form in these harder to clean areas. At the very least, floss every evening before bed. Flossing after each meal is more effective.
What Can I Expect From My First Visit?
Your first visit to our practice starts with a review of your medical history, and an extensive conversation about your oral health. We then perform a thorough examination. Digital X-ray images may be taken. Afterward, we will have an extensive discussion about your treatment options, and work with you to form a detailed treatment strategy.
