JUNEAU IMPLANT DENTISTRY

The Nature-Mimicking Solution to Missing Teeth

Smiles That Work the Way
Mother Nature Intended

If you live in Juneau, we’re pretty sure of one thing. You love nature. We do too – and we apply that love to the way we approach dentistry as well. Your own teeth, provided by Mother Nature, are the best. Unfortunately, life can be hard on our smiles. From diet to dental phobias, all kinds of things can lead to tooth loss. But no matter the reason for your tooth loss, we know it has a major impact on your life and health. Dr. Pinney and his team are here to help.

WHAT EXACTLY ARE DENTAL IMPLANTS
AND HOW DO THEY WORK?

Dental implants are one of dentistry’s best and most life-changing inventions. In the past, if you lost a tooth or teeth, you had to cope with replacements like:

  • Bridges – traditional bridges are attached to surrounding teeth, affecting their integrity.
  • Full or partial dentures – old-fashioned dentures sit on your gums, cover the roof of your mouth, and can come loose, affect your speech, and make eating your favorite foods difficult.

These are still good options for anyone who is not a candidate for dental implants, but dental implants are the new standard-of-care when treating tooth loss.

Here’s how they work: Instead of sitting on top of your gums and needing to be removed for cleaning, our Juneau dental implants offer a permanent solution that:

  • Stays secure and comfortable in your mouth – day and night
  • Never requires gooey adhesive paste
  • Will not slip, pinch, or come loose, causing embarrassment and pain
  • Stimulates your bone for a stronger, healthier, more youthful appearance
  • Function more like natural teeth so you can chew, smile, speak, and live as if you still had your very own teeth

How? Dental implants are a system that consists of titanium posts, surgically implanted into your jawbone. Once they heal in place, Dr. Pinney will attach beautiful, life-like teeth to the post. Depending on your needs, we offer single-tooth implants, implant bridges, and implant-retained dentures.

TECHNOLOGY MAKES
IT PERFECT

We take your health seriously. It’s why we have invested in some of the most advanced technology available, including scanning and 3-D, cone-beam technology. Using this technology to plan every implant makes Dr. Pinney’s placement technique uniquely precise and accurate. With cone-beam imaging, we can map both the exact placement site and determine the implant post’s angle before we even begin surgery. What’s more, with this technology, surgery is less invasive, and healing time is accelerated so you can get back to enjoying life in our Alaskan paradise!
