Why Should I Choose Dental Implants?
Dental implants are the gold standard for replacing missing teeth. Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, implants offer a permanent solution that looks, feels, and functions just like your natural teeth. At Jin Dental Aesthetics, Dr. Mike uses state-of-the-art technology to provide implants that not only restore your smile but also preserve your oral health by preventing bone loss and maintaining facial structure.
See Results Before Treatment
Thanks to our advanced technology, patients can see the expected results of their implants before treatment begins. We’ll produce a digital rendering of what you can expect your “after” to look like while you’re still in the “before” stage, giving you peace of mind that your new smile will appear exactly as you want it to.
Our Treatment Options
Single Tooth Implants
For patients missing one or a few teeth, single tooth implants are an excellent option. Dr. Mike carefully places a titanium post into your jawbone, which acts as an artificial root. Once healed, we attach a custom-made crown that matches your natural teeth perfectly, restoring both function and aesthetics to your smile.
Full Mouth Implant Options
For those missing all or most of their teeth, we offer full mouth implant solutions. This can include options like All-on-4 implants, where an entire arch of teeth is supported by just four strategically placed implants. This revolutionary technique provides a stable, permanent solution that can often be completed in a single day, giving you a new smile in record time.

Frequently Asked
Questions
Am I a good candidate for dental implants?
Most adults with good overall health are candidates for dental implants. However, factors like bone density, gum health, and certain medical conditions can affect your eligibility. During your consultation, Dr. Mike will thoroughly assess your oral health, medical history, and specific needs to determine if implants are right for you. If you're not immediately eligible, we may recommend treatments to prepare your mouth for implants.
How long does the dental implant process take?
The timeline for dental implants can vary depending on your individual case. Typically, the process involves several stages: initial consultation, implant placement, healing period, and final restoration. While some patients may be candidates for same-day implants, most cases require a healing period of 3-6 months for the implant to fully integrate with the bone before the final crown is placed. Dr. Mike will provide you with a personalized treatment timeline during your consultation.
How do I care for my dental implants?
Caring for dental implants is similar to caring for your natural teeth. Regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups are essential to maintain your implants and overall oral health. While implants can't decay like natural teeth, they can be affected by gum disease, so good oral hygiene is crucial. Dr. Mike and our team will provide you with detailed care instructions and recommend the best tools and techniques to keep your implants in top condition for years to come.
