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 to find an oral surgeon. I had a cap for many years that fell out, and I was really very pleased upon the first time meeting the front desk, and they walked me in, and I met Dr. Simos, and it was a perfect consultation appointment. My procedure with my one implant went great. I had the bone grafting. It all worked out, and I had full trust in Dr. Simos, and it worked out very well, and I just was so pleased with the whole process, the whole office. I would recommend the Oral Surgery Group just for their organization. They’re just so nice — all the girls and the staff and the doctors."

"My dentist that I had gone to originally recommended the Oral Surgery Group to go there to have an extraction or two, and just recently, I was also recommended to go there to have an implant done. I found Dr. Michael Stern to be just very understanding and explained everything that needed to be explained, and I feel very comfortable there — looked forward to going. It worked out well. I had no pain whatsoever. I was very impressed by the professionalism with Dr. Michael Stern and his staff. I would recommend Oral Surgery Group. On a scale of 1–10, they're a 10 all the way."

"I have a couple neighbors of mine that use Dr. Engel, and I actually knew of him and have been using him — and my family's been using him — for years. Most recently, I had to have a tooth extracted again, I had to get a bone graft, I had to have my sinus moved up to make room for the implant, and actually in the process of getting the final tooth put into my mouth. I love coming to dentists. I actually could sleep through just about anything. I wasn't nervous at all. I actually recovered pretty quickly. I went right back to work that day; my office is right down the street. What I say to my friends and family if they're needing an oral surgeon is I tell them that I have the best guy for them. Dr. Engel is a great guy to come see if you have a problem with your teeth and you need some oral surgery."

"I was in need of a dental implant, and I had been putting it off for a very long time because I was afraid it was going to really hurt. When I first walked into the Oral Surgery Group, the receptionist was very welcoming, and the staff was very friendly. Dr. Stern was really very nice and walked me through the whole process. The procedure was easy. When I came out of it, I was amazed at how quickly it went, how easy it was, and even more importantly, how little it hurt. The next day, when I woke up, I didn't need anything, not even Tylenol. I look forward to finishing the process, I look forward to coming back, and this is really the only place that I will go. It was just a very pleasant experience, so not only have both my children come here, but then I came here, and my husband also came. I would absolutely 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.
