Why People Love Tucson Dental Studio
Your First Choice for Dental Implants in Tucson, AZ
A Natural Look and Feel
Dental implants are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, providing a realistic appearance and secure fit.
Improved Oral Health
Unlike traditional dentures, implants help preserve your jawbone and prevent the shifting of neighboring teeth, maintaining your overall oral health.
Long-lasting Durability
With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime, making them a worthwhile investment in your smile and quality of life.
Who is a Candidate for Dental Implants?
Dental implants are a great option for adults with missing teeth who are in good overall health. The best candidates have healthy gums, sufficient jawbone density, and a commitment to maintaining oral hygiene. If you’re unsure, schedule a consultation with our team to learn if implants are right for you.
The Implants We Offer
Single-Tooth Implants
If you’re missing just one tooth, a single-tooth implant is an excellent choice. This solution involves placing a single implant post into the jawbone to serve as a replacement tooth root. A custom crown is then attached, blending seamlessly with your natural teeth in both appearance and function.
Implant-Supported Bridges
For patients missing multiple teeth in a row, implant-supported bridges offer a durable and long-lasting alternative to traditional bridges. Instead of relying on adjacent teeth for support, this solution uses implants to securely anchor the bridge, preserving the health of neighboring teeth and maintaining the structure of your jawbone.
All-on-4 Implants
Ideal for those needing to replace an entire upper or lower arch of teeth, the All-on-4 system uses just four strategically placed implants to support a full set of fixed replacement teeth. This innovative approach minimizes healing time and offers a more cost-effective solution for full-arch restoration compared to placing individual implants for each tooth.
Implant-Supported Dentures
Combine the affordability of traditional dentures with the stability and comfort of implants. Implant-supported dentures snap securely onto implants, eliminating the need for adhesives and reducing slippage. They’re removable for easy cleaning but provide a stable and natural feel when worn, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.
Sedation Options for Your Comfort
At Tucson Dental Studio, we understand that dental procedures can feel intimidating. That’s why we offer sedation options to help you stay calm and comfortable:
- Oral Sedation: A simple pill to help you relax before and during your appointment.
- IV Sedation: Ideal for more complex cases or those with dental anxiety.
- Laughing Gas: A safe, mild sedative to help you feel at ease during the procedure.
