Stabilize Your Dentures with Dental Implants

Patients struggling with tooth loss have been relying on dentures for hundreds of years now, but the replacement option comes with noticeable downfalls, especially the looseness and “slippage” involved that can lead to a damaged sense of self-confidence. With the help of state-of-the-art dental implants, patients can enjoy an anchored denture that feels secure and lifelike within the mouth, allowing for increased function, clear speech, and a diet that includes all your favorite foods.

We look forward to giving you new reasons to smile!

Frequently Asked Questions

What level of education is required to be a dentist?

Taking care of your smile can be incredibly personal, and it’s natural to want to find the most qualified practitioner for the job. All dentists in the United States must have either a Doctor of Dental Medicine or a Doctor of Dental Sciences from one of 70+ schools accredited by the American Dental Association.

However, that doesn’t mean they all share the same levels of experience to meet your unique needs. After 3 years of dental school, they can choose to pursue one or more of 12 different specializations recognized by the ADA. Then, they must complete a designated number of continuing education hours annually, so you know that you’re receiving the most up-to-date options.

How can I find a female dentist?

Many women are more comfortable with female dentists, who comprise about one-third of all dentists currently working in the United States. That means finding a doctor to meet your preferences is not usually too difficult. Often, a quick internet search will yield results based on distance that you can scroll through.

At Advanced Dental Concepts, two of our three providers are women. Dr. Mousa and Dr. Lent are both highly qualified and work cohesively with Dr. Hayes to offer a comprehensive array of top-quality services that can be tailored to meet your unique needs.

What is the best way to find a dentist who does dental implants?

Many experts consider dental implants the ideal way to replace missing teeth because of their unique placement in your jawbone. These are the only restorations that include a titanium rod surgically embedded in your mouth for additional strength and stability.

Because all surgeries come with potential risks, it’s imperative to find an experienced dentist to perform the procedure. In some cases, you must seek an oral surgeon in addition to your general dentist for proper placement. At Advanced Dental Concepts in Crown Point, Dr. Hayes has extensive training in a variety of complex topics, including dental implants. He continues to remain an active member of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry, so you can trust that your grin is in good hands.

How do I find a qualified cosmetic dentist?

Cosmetic dentistry isn’t an official specialty recognized by the ADA, so any practitioner can claim they are skilled in this area. You may have to do some additional legwork to find someone you can trust to create beautiful, lifelike results.

It helps to browse websites of potential providers ahead of time. You can browse their profiles to see their qualifications and experience, and might even be able to find before and after photos of real patients to get a better idea of what to expect. At our office, Dr. Hayes is a respected member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry and Dr. Mousa is a certified Invisalign provider, and we are happy to help you upgrade your grin. 

What do you do if you can’t afford a dentist?

Dental insurance plans are meant to encourage preventative care by covering up to 100% of the cost of regular exams and imaging. Then, they tend to only include 50% to 80% of other major and minor procedures to repair issues that come up.

These programs can help reduce your out-of-pocket expenditures, but we understand that not everyone carries a policy. As a result, we offer the following options to help you pay for potentially smile-saving services without breaking the bank:

  • Flexible financing. We’ve partnered with a third-party financer, CareCredit, so you can break up your total invoice into more manageable monthly installments if your application is approved.
  • In-house membership. For a low annual fee, members of our Advanced Dental Wellness Plan gain access to free or discounted services without waiting periods, deductibles, or other standard insurance limitations.
