Q - Why are dental implants a good investment for my smile?

A – Dental implants provide a lasting solution. In fact, implants are made to last a lifetime with proper care and upkeep. Although implants may be an initial investment, the results make it all worth it!

Q - How long is the implant process?

A – The implant is a 3-step process. The entire process takes a few months typically. The steps include placing the abutment, post and dental crown. The first two steps must heal completely before the final step (the dental crown) can be placed. The first two parts of a dental implant provide a lasting foundation and act as a root for the implant.

Q - Will my implant look and feel like a natural tooth?

A – Yes, a dental implant is made as close as possible to a natural tooth. The implant will be custom-made to fit your smile precisely. And the color of the implant will be matched to the surrounding teeth, helping it to blend in with your smile as well.

Why Consider Dental Implants?

Dental Implants, with proper upkeep, are meant to last for years to come! At regular dental check-ups your dentist can check your implant and keep an eye out for any repair needed.

Keep your smile healthy by filling the gap in your teeth. With a gap, the surrounding teeth can begin to shift and lead to jaw bone loss and other dental issues.

With dental implants, you can once again enjoy normal food, talk without any restrictions and chew without difficulty. With an implant functioning just like a normal tooth, you can return to your normal routine.

Restore your smile. By restoring your smile, you can restore your confidence. Have no shame in laughing, smiling and enjoying the company of those you love.

The Implant Process

The entire process from start to finish typically takes a few months. There are three main steps involved in placing a dental implant – the post, abutment and dental crown. When the post is placed, it needs time to heal before the abutment can be placed. These two parts act as the root for the dental crown and need to completely set and healed so that the implant lasts once it is fully complete. Although these steps may seem lengthy, the end result is worth the investment! Once the first two steps have been placed and are set, the custom-made dental crown is placed. You will then have a completed dental implant and a restored smile! At regular dental visits, your dentist can ensure that your dental implant is in no need of repairs or upkeep. With proper upkeep, your implant is made to last for many years!

What Others Are Saying

“My son experienced tooth trauma today on the playground. The amazing staff made him feel at ease and fixed his smile. He is happy, healthy and feels great. Thank you so much for your expertise in child care, and knowing how to make him worry-free & smile again.”

Teresa C., Google

“After about 10 years of procrastination and anxiety, I decided it was high time for a dental check-up. I googled sedation dentistry in my area, and Finger Lakes popped up. Their description on their website read as if it was lifted directly from my mind, so I had to book an appointment. From setting the appointment via phone, to the consultation and meeting with the Doctor, they were phenomenal. I strongly encourage anyone who avoids or procrastinates dental visits based on anxiety to pay them a visit.”

Greg F., Yelp

“Wonderful experience!! Staff is warm and very welcoming. Explained everything very well. I will recommend it to everyone. I have not been able to find a dentist that will listen or seem to take time to get to know their patients. I definitely have at FLDC.”

Jean M., Yelp

“This is the first time I could hardly wait to submit a review. I am fairly new to the Finger Lakes Dental "family". I can't say enough about the high quality of care, courtesy, efficiency, and professionalism received from every aspect from the front end office staff to each person contributing to my dental health. The care received today in having braces put on my teeth pushed me to submit this review. Thank you to the office staff, Dr. Jason, Pam & everyone else I have seen in the few visits of my many to come in the future. You all should be so proud of the fine team you have put together. We are so fortunate to have your Dental Practice in our area. Thank you so much for all of your team's dedication in performing each area of their expertise so effectively.”

Diana P., Yelp

“I always dread going to the dentist. Once I walk in I’m put at ease with the atmosphere and outstanding staff that greet me. I always see Shelly and she is great. She is calm and keeps me relaxed throughout the visit. This has been the longest relationship I’ve ever had with a dental group. Always recommend it when people ask for recommendations.”

Pam G., Facebook

“Highly recommend Finger Lakes Dental! 2 weeks ago I was searching for a new dentist, I called as I needed a tooth fixed ASAP, I was able to get in the same day! Due to my anxiety about dental work the team took the time to explain everything they were doing. I was put on the schedule for the 12th for a root canal and received a call last week to get in early for this procedure. I have found a place where I walk in and feel calm going to and that hasn’t happened in a long time!”

Megan D., Facebook

“Great experience and new great smile!!! Thanks to all at Finger Lakes Dental. Excellent pre-op instruction, slept through the procedure, followed instructions and all went well. You get 10 stars for thorough care and follow up.”

Barb M., Facebook

“Had another great visit today. The nurses and doctors are more than kind and courteous. The offices are spacious, clean and comfortable. And even without insurance, the pricing is very transparent and affordable. I will definitely be going back for all my dental needs.”

Robert W., Google

“My initial visit to the office in Canandaigua was a pleasant experience. Their explanation of all their procedures was thorough. After the initial consultation, they had a cancellation opening for cleaning and fit me right in (I was going to the front desk to schedule my next cleaning appointment). After the cleaning, I felt as if my teeth and gums were never cleaner! Thanks for the hi-tech cleaning as I’ll be looking forward to the next appointment!”
