If you're looking for a lasting solution to missing teeth, dental implants are the most convenient and long-term option available. Implants look and feel just like your natural teeth, and they also stimulate and protect your jaw bone, preventing bone resorption, which is a common issue after tooth loss.
At Strahler Dental Partners, located just a short drive from Cibolo in Schertz, we specialize in implant dentistry. Our wide range of implant options includes single-tooth implants, full-arch implants, and All-On-4. We use advanced technology and top-quality MegaGen implants to ensure unparalleled results. With financing options and special programs for veterans, our team makes implant dentistry affordable on any budget.
Our team excels in creating lifelike implant restorations, such as crowns, bridges, and dentures. We also help maintain your implants with routine 6-month visits to our Schertz office. Regular implant maintenance is crucial for protecting your investment and ensuring your implants last a lifetime.
We offer immediate implants for patients seeking a quick solution. As soon as your metal implant "post" is placed, we can attach a temporary tooth, "loading" the implant right away. This means you can leave our office with a brand-new tooth. As you heal, you'll return for follow-ups, and Dr. Strahler will create your permanent tooth.
Single-tooth implants are the most common type of dental implant. They consist of a single metal implant and a dental crown. The implant is placed into your gums and jaw, where it heals and bonds with the bone, functioning as an artificial root. Once healed, the crown is permanently attached, replacing your missing tooth and restoring your smile.
For patients who have lost most or all of their teeth, full-arch implants are a superior alternative to traditional dentures. Dr. Strahler will place a set of 4-6 implants in the upper, lower, or both arches of the mouth. These can support fixed bridges (All-On-4) or removable implant-retained dentures.
After receiving full-arch implants, patients can opt for removable implant-retained dentures. These are more durable, long-lasting, and attached to your implants, ensuring they never shift or move. This makes them look and feel more natural compared to traditional dentures.
All-On-4 uses special implants and a unique surgical procedure to place a permanent, fixed dental bridge on just 4 dental implants. It can be used to restore the upper, lower, or both rows of teeth for patients seeking a stable, long-term solution.
Most patients with missing teeth are good candidates for dental implants. However, you need adequate jaw bone density and healthy gums. Dr. Strahler will assess your oral health and discuss your options during a consultation at our Schertz office, conveniently located for Cibolo residents.
With proper care and regular maintenance at our Schertz office, dental implants can last a lifetime. The implant itself is designed to be permanent, while the crown, bridge, or denture may need replacement after 10-15 years due to normal wear.
While some dental insurance plans may cover a portion of the cost, most do not cover dental implants. However, at Strahler Dental Partners, we offer financing options and special programs to make implant dentistry affordable for our patients, including those in Cibolo.
