Dental implants are fast becoming the most popular tooth replacement option. Unlike other dental restorations, dental implants restore the entire tooth from the roots up offering a more stable, longer lasting result. Additionally, dental implants aid in bone and gum tissue retention. Dental implants are a great technique for offering superior tooth replacement. Unfortunately, patients with bone density loss and immune compromising health conditions like diabetes, have been unable to benefit from dental implants due to the size of the implant post and the amount of healing time required. Mini dental implants are an innovative new type of implant that offers patients who may have been unable to receive traditional implants an opportunity to complete their smiles in just one appointment.

Dental bridges vs. Dental Implants, Medford, What’s Right for You?
August 5, 2015
Dental bridges are tried and tested. The first dental bridge was used 1000s of years ago as jewelry! In 700 BCE, the Etruscans adorned their teeth and filled in gaps with precious metals to display their wealth. Many people think that dental implants are a relatively new smile restoration option by comparison, but actually the Mayans who lived only 100 years later used sea shells, jade, and other human or animal teeth for restoration. Despite the rudimentary methods, these implant procedures were actually quite successful. Skulls discovered in recent years show that these materials fused with the bone, and the bond has lasted long after the patient’s death. So, how’s a modern patient to choose? Dr. Anthony Giamberardino and his Medford, MA team are here to help you choose the restoration method that’s right for you, but first, we recommend finding out more about each treatment.

Is It Time to Get Dental Implants?
November 10, 2014
Dental implants can make a big difference in your life if you have missing teeth to replace. Dentures can be challenging after a long period of wear. If you have dentures made from plastic and cast metal, you may have experienced irritation to your gum tissue. Denture wearers may experience slippage and movement while talking or eating. Dentures need to be replaced every five to seven years and can also contribute to the damage of your bone and facial structure if worn too long. If you are ready to find a dentures alternative, you can make an appointment with Dr. Giamberardino today. Dr. Giamberardino is an experienced dental implant dentist. Dr. Giamberardino and his team at proudly serve patients throughout Medford, MA, Winchester, Somerville, Malden, Everett, and surrounding communities.
Why Choose Dental Implants?
- Natural– Dental implants are actually tiny titanium posts. Titanium is naturally compatible with the human body.
- Comfort– Dental implants are surgically implanted into your jaw bone. As the implant heals it will fuse with your jaw bone which creates stability and prevents slippage. The stability makes it easier to chew, bite food and speak confidently.
- Versatility– Dental implants can be used in a variety of ways to replace one tooth, an implant supported bridge, or an entire set of implant supported dentures.
- Long Term Results– Dental implants can last a lifetime with consistent oral hygiene.
- Bone Stabilization– Each of your teeth is surrounded by bone which exists entirely to support your teeth and facial structure. When a tooth is lost, the bone surrounding it will cease to have a function and become reabsorbed by the body. Dental implants can prevent this bone from reabsorbing and preserve your facial bone structure.

Digital Dentistry: CEREC Crowns
Digital dentistry isn’t just for diagnosing your care; it can also make restorative treatment faster and more efficient. If you have ever had a tooth crowned in the past, you know that the process took two visits. Back then your dentist had to take a mold impression of your teeth, send it to a lab to be fabricated, and then it was placed at a second visit. Today, with the CEREC Crown system, your dentist can craft your custom crown right in the office during your visit. A digital impression of your tooth is taken, which the dentist uses to design, mold and place your new crown, in a fraction of the time it used to take.
