Dental Implants In Dublin, PA, Can Restore Your Complete Smile
Dental implants in Dublin, PA, are the gold standard for permanent tooth replacement, offering a natural-looking, stable, and long-lasting solution. At Buxmont Periodontics, we specialize in dental implant procedures, helping patients regain their smiles and enjoy the benefits of fully functional and aesthetically pleasing teeth!
Dental implants consist of three key components: the implant post, abutment, and crown. The implant post, crafted from biocompatible material, is surgically placed into the jawbone to act as a secure replacement for the natural tooth root. The abutment serves as the connector between the post and the custom-designed dental crown, which restores the appearance and function of your missing tooth. Together, these components create a stable, natural-looking smile that feels and functions just like real teeth.
At Buxmont Periodontics, we proudly accept referrals from other dentists for implant surgery in Dublin, PA. In these cases, Dr. Joseph Mustazza performs the surgical phase and collaborates closely with the referring dentist, who will complete the final restoration. For patients under our direct care, Dr. Mustazza provides every step of treatment in-house, including consultations, surgery, temporary restorations, follow-up care, and the placement of final teeth.
Once placed, implants will take several months to completely integrate and be accepted by your body. Once adequate time for healing has passed, you will be seen for a final check before being sent back to your regular dentist for your implant to be restored.
Single dental implants are ideal for replacing one missing tooth without affecting the surrounding teeth. Each implant is placed directly into the jawbone, providing a secure and long-lasting foundation for a custom-made crown. The result looks, feels, and functions just like your natural tooth. This option helps preserve bone health and maintains the natural alignment of your smile.
Implant-supported dental bridges are designed to replace several missing teeth in a row. Instead of relying on adjacent teeth for support, the bridge is anchored by dental implants for greater strength and stability. This option restores complete chewing function and prevents surrounding teeth from shifting. With a seamless design, implant bridges blend naturally into your smile for beautiful, durable results.
Implant-supported dentures in Dublin, PA, offer a secure, slip-free alternative to traditional dentures. A few strategically placed implants hold your denture firmly in place, improving comfort and confidence when eating or speaking. This solution eliminates the need for messy adhesives and helps preserve jawbone density. Patients enjoy a stable, natural-feeling smile that enhances both function and appearance.
Full-mouth dental implants in Dublin, PA, restore an entire upper or lower set of teeth using as few as four to six implants.

There is no one-size-fits-all treatment for replacing your teeth with dental implants in Dublin, PA. Based on our discussion and examination findings from your consultation visit, we will develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to address all your needs.
It is always hard to lose a tooth or have multiple missing teeth. We take pride in our ability to make this process as easy as possible for you. Regardless of your treatment plan, your dental implant journey will always begin with a consultation, during which we will discuss your medical history, concerns, and desired outcomes to formulate a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
This consultation will typically involve capturing a CT Scan (CBCT) to accurately diagnose your condition and plan for future surgical procedures. Our goal is to ensure that you are not only comfortable with your treatment but also understand the treatment you are receiving from start to finish.
This is typically a 2-3 step treatment plan. Your tooth will be extracted, and the socket will be grafted with bone to maintain ideal conditions for implant placement. After adequate healing time, you will return for your dental implant to be placed. Once your implant has healed, you will return for a final check to ensure that your implant is ready to be restored by your referring dentist.
Placement of your dental implant at the time your tooth is extracted allows you to heal simultaneously, as opposed to the traditional approach, which involves two phases of treatment/healing (extraction and then implant placement 3-4 months later). It will be determined during your consultation visit whether you are a suitable candidate for this type of procedure or if the traditional approach is best for you.
Our approach to implant dentistry in Dublin, PA, encompasses not only achieving a functional outcome but also an esthetic outcome, particularly in the front of the mouth. To achieve esthetic outcomes, it may sometimes involve using a temporary implant crown, not only to fill the space when you smile, but also to contour the supporting periodontal tissue so that your final restoration can appear as natural as possible. In some instances, we can place a temporary restoration at the time of implant placement; however, this is done on a case-by-case basis to minimize the risk to your implant while it is healing.
To ensure accuracy, we are proud to offer guided implant surgery. We will use state-of-the-art digital technology to simulate your implant surgery via software and fabricate a guide that will be used on the day of your implant surgery.
