Why Choose Beam Dental
Our dedicated team of dentists, implant specialists, hygienists, and care specialists in Fort Lee, NJ, works together to create a convenient dental experience.
Missing one or more teeth can make it challenging to speak and chew naturally, and it can also impact how you feel about your appearance. One of the most effective restorative dentistry solutions available at our Fort Lee office is the dental implant. Unlike other tooth replacement options such as bridges or dentures, dental implants preserve the surrounding healthy teeth while providing a permanent, natural-looking result.
During the procedure, a titanium screw is surgically placed into the jawbone to act as a stable root for your new tooth. Over the following few months, the bone heals and fuses with the implant in a process known as osseointegration. Once the site has healed, your dentist will attach a connector and a custom-made porcelain crown. These crowns are specifically designed to mimic the color, shape, and size of your existing teeth to ensure they fit in seamlessly with your smile.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can I tell if I might need a root canal?
While only a dentist can provide a diagnosis using X-rays, common warning signs include intense temperature sensitivity, sharp pain when chewing, or gum swelling. You may also notice a darkening or discoloration of the affected tooth.
What is the recovery process like?
It is normal to feel some mild tenderness or sensitivity for a few days following the treatment. We recommend sticking to soft foods for a short period and using over-the-counter pain relief as directed to manage any post-procedure discomfort.
Does a root canal procedure hurt?
The treatment is actually designed to relieve the pain caused by the infection. You should not feel pain during the process due to the use of local anesthesia, though you may feel some light pressure or vibration.
How long does the appointment usually take?
A root canal is a relatively quick procedure, typically lasting between 30 and 90 minutes. Cases involving back molars may take slightly longer because they have more canals that require cleaning and disinfecting.
