Implant Dentistry

The Premier Dental Implant Specialist in Charlevoix

Dr. Jay Balasz, DDS is the premier dental implant specialist in Charlevoix and has helped numerous patients restore their oral health and regain confidence in the beauty of their smile. Dental implants are artificial tooth roots that serve as a strong foundation for replacement teeth or bridges. They look and feel like natural teeth and are a comfortable and reliable option for patients whose teeth are missing or badly damaged.

Dr. Balasz has received extensive education and training in all aspects of Restorative Implant Dentistry and has been practicing as a Dentist since 1986. He has studied at the Oral Bioesthetic International (OBI) and the Ladera Ranch Implant Training Institute, and also completed the Mini Residency Biomet Implant Synergy Program. Let us show you how dental implants can help you achieve the healthy, beautiful smile of your dreams.

The Benefits of Dental Implants

Smiling and laughing are the primary means by which we express joy. But if you have missing teeth, you may not feel completely confident or carefree when you smile. If this sounds like your situation, you may be a good candidate for dental implants.

Dental implants offer many benefits over other tooth replacement options. They are made of titanium posts that are surgically placed in your jawbone, where they serve as the roots of missing teeth. Because they are biocompatible, they have a high success rate and are natural-looking, comfortable, and long-lasting. And finally, unlike some other tooth replacement options, dental implants don’t affect surrounding teeth.

Types of Dental Implants

Dr. Balasz is well-versed in dental restoration solutions and is able to prescribe various types of dental implants to meet our patients’ needs. Single Implants can be used to replace a single missing tooth. Mini Implants, on the other hand, require less healing time and can be used to reduce the movement of dentures without the need for bridgework in the adjacent teeth. Lastly, Implant Supported Bridges are ideal for replacing an entire row of lost teeth and Implant Supported Dentures ensure stability while providing a secure fit for new dentures. Dr. Balasz will evaluate the condition of your jaw bone and specific dental needs to determine what type of dental implant is best for you.

Dental Implants Success Rate

Our dental implant restorations have a high success rate and are a reliable and effective option for Charlevoix patients who have experienced tooth loss. Not only do they provide patients with a more beautiful and youthful looking smile, but they also closely mimic the biomechanics and functionality of natural teeth. Patients enjoy improved speech, comfort, and aesthetics as well as enhanced confidence and health. Dr. Balasz has received extensive education in the area of Bioesthetic Dentistry and is an expert in the dental implant process. We can provide the exceptional care needed to ensure optimal results so that your dental implants look natural, feel great, and last a lifetime.

Are You A Candidate For Dental Implants?

Determining if you’re a candidate for dental implants is an essential step in your oral healthcare journey. Having proper dental hygiene and maintaining good oral health, as well as avoiding tobacco use and smoking, are necessary prerequisites for being eligible. Additionally, having a healthy jawbone that can support the implant is also essential to consider when determining candidacy. Dr. Balasz will assess the condition of your teeth, gums, and jawbone as well as your overall health to determine if you are a suitable candidate.
