Dental Implants
Millions of Americans suffer from tooth loss each year, limiting their dental function and impacting their self-confidence.
At Jersey City Dental, we are proud to offer a superior form of tooth restoration with dental implants.
Learn more advantages of dental implant treatment at our practice serving Hoboken and Jersey City, NJ.
What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants replace and restore the entire structure of a missing or severely damaged tooth. Implants are small posts that act as artificial tooth roots. These posts are made from biocompatible materials that fuse with the jawbone. Our practice uses titanium implants and zirconia implants.
Once the dental implants have fused with the bone, the implants provide a durable, stable, foundation for a custom-made restoration, such as a crown, bridge, or denture. Implant-supported restorations bring back both the appearance and function of your smile.
How Are Implants Placed?
Our Jersey City dentists begin by making an opening in your gums. This allows them a place to secure your implants, and later, the abutments and cosmetic restoration. Abutments can attach options like crowns and bridges.
What Benefits Do Dental Implants Provide?
Offer Maximum Stability
Implants are the most secure option for tooth restoration, fusing with your jaw to provide the next best thing to a natural tooth. Unlike traditional forms of restoration, they are fixed in place for maximum stability and convenience.
Prevent Bone Recession
Tooth loss actually causes bone recession when the missing roots no longer provide stimulation to the jaw. Because implant posts replace the tooth roots, they can halt bone loss and even help patients maintain a more youthful facial structure.
Enhance Your Appearance
While dental implants are not considered cosmetic dentistry, they deliver a beautiful smile you'll be happy to share. When you take greater confidence in your smile, the people around you will notice. Implants allow our dentists to restore missing teeth and create a secure, natural-looking smile.
Provide a Long-Lasting Solution
Dental implants themselves can last decades or even a lifetime. The prosthetics that attach to implants can last for decades with proper maintenance. Many dental patients find their longevity makes them a worthy investment.

WHY JERSEY CITY PATIENTS VISIT US FOR THEIR DENTAL CARE

This place is unreal. We’re talking about a Dentist office here. Historically, I’ve had the most traumatic experiences with Dentists as it can get. I came to this office to see Dr.Paek for the first time and was referred to him by my brother. I was terrified to go given it’s been as while due to the pandemic. When I walked in I thought I was in the wrong office because it’s so beautiful and modern inside! Never met such nice front desk personnel and staff, everyone was super helpful and very empathetic. My appointment itself couldn’t have gone any smoother and the best part? DIDN’T HURT (had to get a hefty procedure done) and I have extremely sensitive teeth. They have massage chairs while working on your teeth, piña colada numbing cream not that disgusting weird dirty mint flavor that gives you headaches, flat screen tv right in front of you to watch, accepts almost all insurance and the best smiles all around. I highly recommend this Dentist Office believe me you won’t regret it.

I always have a great experience at Dr Paek’s office.
I give them a hard time at every turn, and believe me I am a tough customer!
My hygienist Jessica is top notch, thorough and yet super gentle and always informative, all of which is obviously extremely important.
Dr. Paek I give the worst time of all…. But I wouldn’t have anyone else doing work on my teeth.
He’s just super smart and knows the issues and how to solve them asap. I feel like my mouth and gums health are in good hands. Highly recommend him to all my family and friends.

Am I a good candidate for dental implants?
Considerations When Recommending Implants
Dental implants replace and restore the entire structure of a missing or severely damaged tooth. Implants are small posts that act as artificial tooth roots. These posts are made from biocompatible materials that fuse with the jawbone. Our practice uses titanium implants and zirconia implants.
The team at our Jersey City, NJ, dental practice will perform a comprehensive evaluation of your oral health and smile to determine if you are a candidate for dental implants. Drs. Jonathan Cohen and Andrew S. Paek might suggest dental implants as a solution if you:
Are Missing Teeth
Restorative dentistry is typically recommended when we are unable to repair your natural teeth. When saving the natural tooth is not an option, we can provide an implant-supported crown, bridge, or denture.
Are in Good Overall Health
To qualify for this procedure, you should be in good overall health and be a non-smoker. If you suffer from uncontrolled diabetes or an auto-immune disorder, you are at a higher risk of complications and implant failure.
Have Sufficient Bone Density
Patients need sufficient jawbone tissue to support dental implants. If you have suffered jawbone deterioration due to long-term or widespread tooth loss, a preliminary procedure such as a bone graft or sinus lift may be required.

What are my options to restore missing teeth with implants?
We Offer Several Types of High-Quality Restorations
Our Jersey City, NJ, office offers several different types of implant treatments, depending on the extent of your tooth loss:
Crowns
For patients with a single missing tooth, a crown fitted to a single implant post will fill the gap in your smile.
bridges
An implant-supported bridge can replace several consecutive missing teeth in the upper or lower dental arch.
Dentures
Those with complete tooth loss can benefit from an implant-supported denture that restores the entire smile.
Mini Dental Implants
Because mini dental implants are much smaller implant posts, they require a less invasive procedure to place. These can work well for patients who have lost too much jawbone tissue to support standard implants.
All-on-4 Implants
The revolutionary All-on-4® implant method offers a rapid alternative to traditional implant treatment. Instead of inserting a post for every missing tooth, the All-on-4 method uses four implants on your upper or lower arch.
Two Types of Dental Implants
In addition to different implant restorations, our practice uses two different types of implants to support crowns, bridges, and dentures. We can discuss the right type of implant for your needs during the consultation process.
Zirconia Implants
A newer implant option, Zirconia dental implants are good for patients who'd prefer a metal-free approach to dentistry. Zirconia is tooth-colored, which eliminates aesthetic flaws at the gumline.
Titanium Implants
Titanium is a traditional implant material, boasting a high success rate for osseointegration. Many patients will wind up with titanium implants given their long history of effectiveness.
Dental Implant Treatment Timeline
Here is a general outline for implant treatment at our Jersey City, NJ, dental practice. Before treatment begins, our dentists will use a 3D cone beam scanner to determine bone density and identify the ideal locations for implants. Your dentists may also design surgical guides or use computer-guided technology to position your implant during surgery for optimum placement, which promotes long-lasting results.

Bone Grafting for Dental Implants
Tooth loss can lead to bone atrophy over time. This occurs because the jawbone no longer has a tooth to support, which causes the bone to deteriorate from lack of use. If you've experienced major bone loss, you will need to get a bone graft before you can get dental implants.
The Bone Graft Procedure
Bone grafting adds hard tissue to the jawbone to restore its density. This bone can be harvested from a donor site from the patient's own body. We can also use bone from a bone bank or synthetic bone graft materials depending on your needs.
Sinus Lift
In addition to traditional bone grafting, a sinus lift may be performed for dental implants placed in the back of the upper arch. This procedure repositions the sinus membrane and adds bone to the area so implants can fuse with it and create a solid foundation for the restoration.
Added Treatment Time
Bone graft patients will need a few months to heal from their procedure before implants can be placed. This will add several months to the overall dental implant treatment time.
Your New Dental Implants
CAN LAST A LIFETIME
Worried about having to replace your dental implants? That may not ever be necessary.
One of the best benefits of dental implants is their longevity. For many patients, implants can last a lifetime, provided they are cared for properly.
Of course, crowns, bridges, and other cosmetic dental restorations attached to the abutments will need to be replaced periodically, but even these can last for decades with good care.
How do I take care of my dental implants?
Dental Implant Maintenance
Maintaining your dental implants is not much different than caring for your natural teeth. Our tips to ensure a healthy implant include:
Practice Good Oral Hygiene
Without proper oral hygiene, your implants can develop complications or become infected. Brush twice daily with non-abrasive toothpaste and floss at least once a day .
Use an Oral Irrigator
An oral irrigator, also known as a water flosser, helps clean hard-to-reach areas around the gums and remove particles stuck between teeth.
Attend Regular Check-Ups
Make sure to schedule regular dental appointments. Your dentist can clean areas you are unable to access and routinely check the health of your implants.

Our Practice's Three Pillars
Two Important Questions
ABOUT PAYING FOR DENTAL IMPLANTSAre Dental Implants
Covered by Insurance?
Generally, insurance will not cover dental implants. However, because it is an investment in your health, earlier treatment now can save you money later down the line.
A single implant and crown, for instance, will be far less expensive than multiple implants, restorations, and even bone grafts. Not to mention, living pain-free is utterly priceless.
Does Your Office
Have Financing?
Yes, we do.
We are happy to offer 0% financing for qualified patients for a variety of cosmetic and restorative dentistry treatments.
Finally, our practice features competitive pricing, making it even easier to choose our Jersey City team for your dental implants journey.
