Services offered at Texas Periodontal Associates...Teeth in a Day!
Dental Implants
Single Tooth Replacement | Multiple Tooth Replacement
Dental implants are a better solution to the problem of missing teeth.
An artificial tooth root is placed into the jaw to hold a replacement
tooth or bridge in place as to provide patient comfort, function and
esthetics.
Implant Therapy includes:
- Single Tooth Replacement
- Multiple Tooth Replacement
Esthetic/Cosmetic
Dental implants look and feel like your own teeth.
Tooth-saving
Dental implants do not sacrifice the
quality of your adjacent teeth like a bridge does because neighboring
teeth are not altered to support the implant.
Reassuring
Dental implants will allow you to, once
again, speak and eat with comfort and confidence.

Before and After Pictures
Reliable
The success rate of dental implants is highly predictable. They
are considered an excellent option for tooth replacement.
The ideal candidate for a dental implant is in good
general and oral health.
Adequate bone in your jaw is needed to support
the implant, and the best candidates have healthy gum tissues that are
free of periodontal disease.
If you think implant dentistry is the choice for you,
we will perform a dental and radiographic examination and health history.
As we have long been concerned about radiation exposure in dentistry,
we selected Dentsply Vixwin Computerized Dental Radiography. This digital
x-ray system reduces a patient’s exposure to radiation by 95 percent.
This system will allow us to view and diagnose your
oral structures at digital speed. During your first visit, your specific
oral health goals
will be addressed by our team and, together, we will
strive for a successful outcome for you. 
Dental implants are nothing
new. They have been used
in dentistry for over twenty years with success rates
exceeding 95 percent. Dental implants are a restorative alternative to
a bridge or denture
that should be a considered in every patient’s treatment plan.
There are, however, factors that reduce that long-term success of the
implant such as poor oral hygiene, smoking, diabetes, inadequate jawbone
size, excessive biting forces and poor patient follow-up after the implant
is restored.

Periodontal diseases are bacterial infections of the gums and the bone that surrounds the teeth. They are caused mainly by the accumulation
of bacteria called plaque. If not treated right away, the teeth themselves
can be affected.
