Beautiful, Fully Functioning Replacement Teeth

At Oral Surgery Group our oral and maxillofacial surgeons offer dental implants to patients in Middlesex, NJ, and surrounding areas. Dental implants are a revolutionary tooth replacement solution that allows patients to eat, speak, and smile as if their teeth were never missing. Dental implants extend beneath the gums to create a secure foundation for your crowns. Because they mimic the structure and function of natural teeth, which have roots to secure them in place, dental implants are stronger and longer lasting than any other tooth replacement option available.

If you have one or more teeth that are missing, damaged, or decayed, we invite you to contact our office in Middlesex, New Jersey, for a consultation. Our team of oral surgeons Dr. Engel, Dr. Stern, Dr. Simos, Dr. Stern, Dr. Tanchyk, and Dr. Prabhu look forward to meeting you.

What Is a Dental Implant?

A dental implant is a prosthetic tooth designed to look, feel, and function just like a natural tooth. The implant is self-supporting, which means it requires no support from any adjacent teeth or structures. Each implant has three parts that all work together to form the final restoration. The implant post goes beneath the gums to replace your natural tooth’s root. An abutment piece will be attached to the implant after a brief healing period. Once healed, a restorative dentist will place the final crown. The final result is a natural-looking, secure replacement tooth that is just as strong as—if not stronger than—natural teeth.

Dental implants are the only tooth restoration option that fuses to the jaw bone and prevents bone loss.

If you have missing teeth, enough jaw bone, and are healthy enough to undergo general surgery, you likely qualify for dental implants.

Types of Dental Implants

Every patient is different and to help more patients achieve healthier smiles, we proudly offer a variety of implant-based tooth restoration services. During the consultation, your oral surgeon will walk you through your treatment options and determine the right implant for your smile.

  • Single Implants. One implant, including the post, abutment, and crown, replaces one tooth as many times as needed throughout the mouth.
  • Immediate Implants. If there is enough jaw bone, your surgeon can insert a dental implant post into an empty socket immediately following tooth extraction.
  • Implant-Supported Bridges. When a dental implant supports a bridge, your other teeth are spared the burden of having to support a traditional bridge. The post stimulates the jaw bone to keep it healthy, unlike traditional bridges.
  • Full-Arch Restoration. This treatment uses several implant posts to secure a fixed prosthesis in one or both arches. The results are a life-changing new smile that looks natural and is fully functional.

Dental Implant Surgery

Prior to undergoing any type of surgery, you will visit us for a consultation and meet with an oral surgeon. We will take 3D CBCT scans of your mouth and discuss your options for anesthesia. As oral surgeons, we are qualified to administer all forms of anesthesia, including laughing gas, local anesthesia, IV sedation, and general anesthesia.

On the day of your surgery, your oral surgeon will make sure you are prepared and relaxed before your procedure. After administering the proper anesthesia, the surgeon will insert the implants into the bone and place sutures on the surgical sites. Once healed, your general dentist will place the final crown. This crown is custom-made just for you and will blend in with your other teeth.

How Much Do Dental Implants Cost in Middlesex, NJ?

The cost of your dental implant will depend on the details of your treatment plan. This includes how many implants you need, if you require additional surgical procedures, your choice of anesthesia, and your dental insurance. We provide a cost estimate prior to performing any surgery, so you will know exactly what to expect.

Dental implants are an investment in yourself worth making. Removable dentures may be cheaper upfront, but they do not prevent bone loss and must be replaced every few years. Extensive bone loss can lead to costly and lengthy bone repair surgery, which is avoidable by choosing dental implants to give your jaw bone the stimulation it needs. An easy-to-care-for, natural-looking solution, dental implants have helped thousands of patients love their smiles again.

Denture Replacement With Dental Implants

Dentures are a non-invasive tooth replacement option that is often cheaper upfront compared to dental implants. However, dentures must be replaced every few years and can lead to extensive bone repair because they do not prevent jaw bone loss. Many patients who wear dentures find them uncomfortable and inconvenient to clean and remove when eating.

Dental implants are an investment in your confidence and oral health. Implants are a more long-term solution that restore full functionality to your teeth. If you wear full dentures, you may qualify for full-arch restoration. This treatment uses implants to hold a fixed denture for results that look and feel natural.

"I needed an extraction and I also needed—and found out later—implants. When I first arrived, I was very nervous. They calmed me down and, you know, you felt at ease. You felt like, ‘OK, this is going to be all right.’ When I walked through the door, I felt very welcomed. The staff is efficient. They’re helpful. Dr. Simos is extremely good at what he does. In fact, he’s excellent at what he does. I would absolutely give Dr. Simos five stars. My procedure went excellent. If any of my friends and family in Franklin are looking for a fantastic oral surgeon, Dr. Simos is your guy."

"I had a problem with a tooth that was just bothering me. The dentist I normally use took a look at it and said, "This tooth is shot." He suggested Dr. Simos — someone that he's worked with for a number of years. Dr. Simos' demeanor — he's just laid back, I guess is the best way. He listens to you very attentively, explains what's going on, and then he takes the time to answer any questions you have, explain exactly what's going to be done. The first thing that was done was removing the affected tooth — it was essentially a dead tooth, so it had to come out. They do a bone graft, I think, as a follow-up perhaps a month later, and then several months later, a dental implant is done. Recovery was pretty easy. The staff here in this office is excellent. Everyone is prompt, courteous. I would recommend this group. This is the place to be if you need this sort of work done."

"I was in need of a dental implant. My dentist at first recommended this Oral Surgery Group to my family and myself. The staff is wonderful. They’re so friendly and warm and welcoming and really nice people. When I first walked through the door, I felt very welcome. The team is great. They’re so efficient and friendly, and they’re there for you if you have any questions, they make you feel reassured about anything. I was surprised when I first met Dr. Tanchyk, I felt like she was my friend. My recovery was excellent. I was back to work immediately, no problems. I would highly recommend Dr. Tanchyk."

"I made an appointment with Dr. Stern because I researched on the internet different surgeons that would be, I guess, rated very high. So, I made an appointment, and Dr. Stern was kind enough to really walk me through everything that he thought I needed to do, and then I had the implants put in. My implants feel just like my natural teeth did when I had teeth. Dr. Stern and all of his staff are so aware of safety and cleanliness; everything in the office is beautiful. If I had any friends or family members that needed to have an implant and lived in New Brunswick, in Somerset, even Somerville, I would highly recommend Dr. Stern."

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is not a good candidate for dental implants?

Dental implants are a great option for most people who want to replace their missing teeth, but they may not be perfect for everyone. Patients must be healthy enough to undergo dental procedures to receive implants. Additionally, enough bone must be left beneath the gums to support a successful implant. If too much bone loss has occurred, you may still be able to receive implants after a bone grafting procedure.

Can dental implants be done in a day?

If there is enough jaw bone to support an implant, you can have a tooth extracted and immediately replaced with a dental implant. If you do not have enough jaw bone, we can insert a bone graft to stimulate bone growth. You will return once the graft has healed and then receive your dental implant.

Is getting dental implants painful?

We make every effort to keep you as comfortable as possible throughout your treatment. We offer a variety of anesthesia and sedation options. Many patients undergo IV sedation for dental implant surgery. This renders you into a semi-conscious state, unable to feel pain, and you will wake up when it is over. You can manage any post-operative pain with ice packs or over-the-counter pain medications.

How long after dental implants can I eat normally?

You should avoid chewing on the side of your mouth with the implant until the surgical sites have healed, which takes a couple of weeks. Eat soft foods for the first few days after surgery and resume your normal diet as tolerated. Be careful around the surgical sites and follow the instructions given to you by your surgeon for a smooth and speedy recovery.
