Are you missing one or more teeth? At Florham Park Smile Lounge, we understand tooth loss can prevent you from enjoying your favorite foods or from smiling with confidence. Left untreated, gaps in the smile can also lead to more complex oral health issues in the future. Dental implants are often the best solution to replace a missing tooth, so you can smile with confidence again.
Do I Need Dental Implants?
Dental implants are an excellent tooth replacement option, because they can fill the gap in your smile while helping to restore your overall oral health as well. Dental implants are the only tooth replacement option that can actually stop bone loss and can be used with a variety of custom dental restorations to replace one or all of your teeth. Dental implants also support healthy jawbone growth and are proven to have the best longevity of all tooth replacement treatment options. Dental implants also replace your whole tooth, down to the root!
Top Technology for Precise Implant Placement
At Florham Park Smile Lounge, we use cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) to provide our patients with peace of mind. This reliable technology ensures precise dental implant placement for increased patient comfort and better overall outcomes.
Strategic Planning
When it comes to implant placement, we always keep the end result in mind. Our implant dentists' goal is to position the implant in a way that perfectly complements the crown's contour and design, ensuring that your biting function is just right.

Whether you need to replace a single tooth or restore an entire arch, we've got you covered. Our dental implant services in Florham Park, NJ include both single tooth implants and full arch implants, providing comprehensive options for each patient's specific needs.

The Implant Treatment Process
At Florham Park Smile Lounge, the dental implant process includes:
- Implant Placement. After your treatment has been approved, your doctor will arrange a date for your oral surgery and devise a surgical plan. Your doctor will create an opening in your gums and securely place a dental implant directly into the jawbone. Afterwards, the surgical site will be cleaned and sutured to begin the healing process.
- Healing & Osseointegration. After your implant surgery, your gums and jawbone will begin to heal. The incision area will heal in just 1-2 weeks; however, it will take 3-6 months for the implant to fuse with your jawbone through a process called osseointegration. To ensure proper healing, we’ll schedule follow-up appointments during the osseointegration phase to monitor your progress.
- Applying the Restoration. Once the implant has fully bonded with your jaw, the final phase of the treatment will be to place your restoration. A restoration is the visible part of a dental implant, and most often takes the form of a dental crown when replacing a single tooth. Your restoration will be specially designed to match the rest of your smile and will be securely attached to the titanium implant via an abutment. Once your new tooth is in place, your smile will be fully restored!
What are the Benefits of Dental Implants?
Patients who replace lost teeth with permanent dental implants often experience benefits like:
- Unparalleled Comfort. Implants feel and function just like natural teeth; you can brush and floss like normal and still enjoy your favorite foods.
- Natural-Looking Results. Your implant will be paired with a durable and natural-looking, custom-crafted restoration to blend seamlessly with your smile.
- Preserve Your Oral Health. Implants are made from biocompatible materials and mimic the form and function of your tooth’s natural roots to prevent bone resorption caused by tooth loss.
