Implant Dentistry with Dr. Michael Lenchner, Prosthodontist, in Forest Hills will change your life.

If you are missing one or more teeth, you'll want to talk with Dr. Lenchner about replacements that are as natural aspossible. If dentures don't work for you, you may want to consider dental implants. Unlike dentures, which can be removed, Dr. Lenchner can restore your mouth with dental implant restorations that are permanently anchored into the jaw.

You are a good candidate for dental implants if you have jawbone ridges that are in good shape and healthy oral tissues. We have restored many patients who were told before that they could not have dental implants. When implants are place into the jaw bone, a chemical and mechanical bond is formed. The jawbone actually grows around the implant.

With dental implants at Dr.Michael Lenchner's office, in Forest Hills, you get a perfect fit, and they will look and feel as good as (or better than!) your original teeth.

"Dr. Lenchner, what are dental implants?"

A dental implant is a titanium metal replacement for a root of a tooth that is surgically implanted in the jawbone.

As the body heals for approximately two to six months after the surgery, the bone around the implant fuses to the implant through a process called osseointegration.

After the healing phase is complete, the implants are used to anchor crowns, bridges, or dentures.
