dental Implants - Lake St Louis, MO

Same-Day Solutions. A Lifetime of Smiles.

“I Was Longing for a Smile That I Thought I Would Never Have”

One Appointment. One Procedure. One Beautiful Smile

Missing and unsalvageable teeth can make eating your favorite foods difficult and uncomfortable. Oral health problems and gaps left by missing teeth can steal your confidence and make you want to hide your smile from the world.

Without timely replacement, each missing tooth also stresses the surrounding teeth, leading to cracks, wear, shifting, and eventually, more tooth loss. Our New Creation Dental Care team is proud to offer your smile renewed health and lasting beauty with affordable dental implants in Lake St. Louis, MO. Our teeth-in-a-day treatment lets you enjoy your beautiful new smile without the wait!

What Are Teeth-in-a-Day?

We recognize that tooth loss can stem from various causes, from accidents to dental issues and decay. With our teeth-in-a-day protocol, we’re equipped to address these concerns efficiently. In just one day, we can replace your infected teeth with a complete set of fully functional, beautiful, and healthy new teeth.

This innovative approach involves a permanent bridge anchored by implants, meticulously customized to match your unique smile, including skin tone, facial symmetry, and lifestyle, ensuring a seamless and natural appearance.

What Is a Dental Implant?

Dental implants permanently replace missing teeth with the same look, feel, and function of healthy natural teeth with three parts: an implant post, an abutment connector, and a prosthesis. The titanium implant post is surgically inserted into the jawbone to create a stable foundation for your new smile.

The abutment connector is then placed on top of your implants to connect your implants to your final prosthesis to ensure a comfortable, secure fit. The prosthesis comprises crowns that perfectly match your skin tone, lip and gum line, and facial symmetry. These three parts create a stunning, functional, and durable smile you can enjoy for decades.

How Can Dental Implants Protect Your Health?

Versatile Options for Every Tooth Replacement Need

Single Implants

Single dental implants recreate a robust and healthy tooth to replace one or individual teeth in separate areas of the mouth. Because it has the same structure as natural teeth, a single dental implant will blend seamlessly with the rest of your smile.

Its strength and durability mean you’ll enjoy a variety of foods comfortably. Your dental implant will protect the surrounding teeth from further damage and restore balance to your bite, preventing strain and injury to the jaw joints.

Dental Bridges

We can replace several teeth in a row with a single restoration. This allows us to rebuild the strength and beauty of your smile with fewer implant posts, making your treatment more comfortable and affordable.

A dental bridge consists of a false tooth (or several false teeth) fused to crowns on both sides. We can design the crowns to fit over implant abutments rather than natural teeth, providing a streamlined and minimally invasive solution with unbeatable durability.

Implant-Supported Dentures

While traditional dentures are an adequate solution to complete tooth loss in some situations, they have extreme limitations regarding biting and chewing. If you’re tired of struggling with a removable denture that shifts, slips, and loses suction when you eat but don’t want to be limited to a soft food diet, an implant-supported denture may be an ideal option for you!

We can stabilize a removable prosthesis with a few strategically placed implant posts. Your denture will snap easily into place, allowing you to enjoy nearly any food. The fit will not change over time, meaning you won’t need to deal with uncomfortable adhesives, inconvenient trips to adjust your denture or the expense of replacing it every few years.

Full Mouth Dental Implants

If you’re looking for the gold standard solution to tooth loss, full mouth dental implants can’t be beaten! This is as close to having a complete set of solid and healthy teeth again.

Full mouth dental implants are permanently fixed in place and only need to be removed in the dental office during your regular cleanings. We use heavier, more durable materials to create full mouth dental implants that look and feel like natural enamel. You’ll be able to bite into fresh apples, chew juicy steak, and enjoy fresh salads in total comfort!

Our Step-by-Step Dental Implant Process

Your path to renewed oral health with dental implants will start with a comprehensive consultation. We want to understand how your dental health affects your daily life and your goals for your new smile. We will collect detailed digital diagnostics to help us measure how much bone you have available to support dental implants.

We will also evaluate your current oral health condition, overall physical well-being, and any other factors that may affect the long-term success of your treatment. Once we know you’re a good candidate for dental implants, we’ll plan every aspect of your surgery and each tooth in your new prosthesis to suit your unique smile.

On the day of your procedure, we’ll extract any teeth that need to be removed or perform bone grafting if required. We will then make small incisions in your gums to strategically place 4-6 dental implants at different angles to ensure optimal durability. Once your implants are placed, we will attach an abutment connector and place your hand-crafted prosthesis on top.

When it comes to your smile, you should never be kept waiting. We’re proud to offer teeth-in-a-day, an approach that enables us to deliver your new teeth immediately after surgery. Placing your restorations on the same day as your surgery allows your gums to adapt to your new teeth, creating ideal aesthetics and lasting comfort.

Over the next 4-6 months, your implant posts will fuse to the supporting bone. Most patients report only mild discomfort for the first few days after surgery, but the rest of the healing process is painless. Once your implants fully integrate into the bone, you can eat comfortably and smile confidently. Your implants can last a lifetime with proper at-home care and regular check-ups!
