An International Congress of Oral Implantologists Fellow, with a passion for aesthetic perfection, he is raising the bar in restorative dentistry.
Why implants?
An implant restoration is more than a tooth replacement. It is a root replacement. The actual implant is embedded in the jawbone, and serves as a foundation for a customized crown, bridge, or denture. This is important because it recreates the anatomy of a natural tooth, providing several unique benefits.
- Avoid bone loss. Without stimulation from a tooth root, the jawbone begins shrinking. Only implants mimic the action of natural roots, maintaining healthy bone size and density.
- Look younger. Tooth loss affects more than the appearance of your smile. With less bone and fewer teeth, your facial structure changes, causing excess skin to hang in wrinkles and folds. Well-designed implants preserve or restore facial structure in the jaw area, helping you avoid premature aging.
- Enjoy a carefree smile. When it comes time for oral hygiene, there is nothing to remove, soak, or clean around with special tools. Implant restorations are just like natural teeth, and they require the same care.
Designing your smile
Dental implants are tiny devices, surgically embedded in the jawbone. You will not see them at all once the process is complete. The restoration, which is supported by implants, will be your new tooth or teeth.
Dr. Matarazzo takes great care with every detail of smile design, when planning implant treatment or any other procedure. The size, shape, coloring, and subtle aspects of each restoration are designed to look completely natural, and spectacular. Call (617) 405-3939 to schedule.
