Why Choose Beam Dental
Our dedicated team of dentists, implant specialists, hygienists, and care specialists in Edison, NJ, works together to create a convenient dental experience.
Losing a tooth can be a difficult experience that may leave you feeling self-conscious about your appearance or concerned about how the gap will affect your bite over time. Single dental implants provide a high-quality, long-lasting solution for tooth replacement that looks and functions like a natural tooth. At our Edison office, we focus on restorative care that preserves your oral health and prevents surrounding teeth from shifting into the empty space.
The process begins with a foundation, which may include a bone graft to ensure the implant has a stable base. After the titanium post is surgically placed into the jawbone, a process called osseointegration occurs, where the implant naturally fuses with the bone over three to six months. Once healing is complete, your dentist will attach a connector and a custom-made porcelain crown that is specifically designed to match the color and shape of your existing teeth.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is an implant a better choice than a dental bridge?
While traditional bridges are often less expensive and covered by insurance, they require filing down healthy adjacent teeth for support. Implants are a more durable investment that can last well over a decade without damaging the surrounding teeth.
What are the main benefits of choosing an implant?
Implants provide a permanent result that looks more natural than a bridge. They restore your ability to eat and speak with ease, fill the gap to prevent tooth shifting, and reduce the overall risk of future oral health problems.
How long can I expect my dental implant to last?
Dental implants are known for their durability and can last 15 years or longer. While the titanium post can last a lifetime, the connector and crown may eventually require replacement after 10 to 20 years due to normal wear and tear.
What exactly is a dental implant?
A dental implant consists of an artificial root, typically a titanium screw, that is anchored into your jawbone to support a replacement tooth. It serves a similar purpose to a bridge or dentures but offers a more permanent, standalone solution.
