About Dental Implants in Amherst, NY

A dental implant is a prosthetic tooth covered by a custom dental crown. We permanently secure implants in the jaw with a small titanium post. The post acts as a tooth root, stimulating healthy bone growth to avoid jaw shrinkage, often occurring after tooth loss. A dental implant functions like a natural tooth, enabling patients to enjoy normal speech and a healthy diet without restrictions. With proper dental care and good oral hygiene, a dental implant can last a lifetime.

  • Implant post: a bio-compatible titanium post that is surgically implanted and fuses to the jaw bone
  • Abutment: connects to the implant at the gum line and secures the dental crown or overdenture
  • Prosthetic tooth: this can be a dental crown for a single missing tooth or a dental bridge or denture for multiple missing teeth

Types Of Dental Implants

We offer all types of dental implants, depending on your particular dental health needs. Dr. Karl Neuhaus will meet with you to thoroughly evaluate your oral health, discuss your concerns and recommend the option(s) best suited to your unique goals.

  • Single tooth dental implants: we can replace your missing tooth with a natural-looking implant that will blend with your natural smile without compromising adjacent teeth to support an appliance.
  • Teeth In A Day: also known as “all-on-four,” Dr. Neuhaus can place several strategic mini or traditional implants to secure a hybrid denture for restoring lost teeth or replacing a poorly fitting denture.
  • Multiple implants: Dr. Neuhaus offers a secure and permanent option to the dental bridge for patients missing several consecutive teeth.
