Dental Implants
DENTAL IMPLANTS FOR MT. KISCO, NY
Robert D. Aufrichtig, D.M.D. uses dentures , bridges , dental veneers and other implants to not only improve the look and feel of your smile, but to completely change your dental health!
Dental Implants are essentially titanium “roots” that are placed into the jawbone to support crowns, bridges, and secure complete dentures. A dental implant can take the place of a missing tooth and gives the appearance of a natural tooth. These can even be used to eliminate the need for partial plates or partial dentures.
Dental Implants come in three parts—the implant, the abutment, and the crown. The dental implant is the screw that attaches to your jaw and serves as a root for your new teeth. The abutment is a connector that supports and holds a tooth or set of teeth. The crown is the visible part of the dental implant that is usually made of zirconium or porcelain for durability and aesthetics. Our Mt. Kisco-based team is here to assist you throughout the entire process.
In the past 30 years, implants have become the cosmetic dentistry standard for replacing missing teeth. Though there is generally more cost associated with this procedure, choosing implants is a worthy investment that will pay off for you in the long run.

DENTURES
Dentures do much more than just improve your smile and appearance; they also allow you to retain your ability to speak and eat comfortably. Full dentures are removable teeth replacements that can be crafted to provide characteristics, such as tooth shape and color, that you choose.
If you already have dentures and still have trouble chewing or speaking and have sore gums, your dentures may be the incorrect fit for your mouth. Our cosmetic dentists can help give you back peace of mind that your dentures will be fully secure by correcting the fit and making them more comfortable for you.
DENTAL BRIDGES
In some cases, a partial denture, or bridge, is enough of a replacement for missing teeth. We literally bridge the gap between the missing teeth with artificial ones. This removable partial piece can be placed or removed by you at any time. Although dental bridges can be made from a variety of materials such as gold, typically they’re made from porcelain to aesthetically blend in with your natural teeth.
However, there are also fixed bridges available, where only Dr. Rob will be able to move the piece. With fixed bridges, a false tooth (pontic) and its anchor (abutment crown) fix the bridge in place.
