Dental implants are small titanium posts that replace the roots of missing teeth (View Example). They are inserted into your jawbone during a minor surgical procedure that takes place in the dental office. After the implant has been placed in your jawbone, a completely lifelike porcelain tooth crown is attached. In some cases, the implant needs to fuse with the bone for several months before it is permanently crowned; in other cases, you can have new (but temporary) teeth the same day your implants are placed.
You can replace a single tooth, multiple teeth or all your teeth with implants (View Examples). You don't even need one implant for every missing tooth. As few as two Implants can support a removable lower denture, while as few as four implants can provide a full, permanent set of top or bottom teeth.
Most people find dental implant surgery very easy to tolerate. Any post-operative discomfort can usually be managed with over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medication such as ibuprofen or OTC pain-relievers. Ice can also be helpful.
At the outset, implants are more expensive than other tooth-replacement methods such as dentures or bridgework. But they also last many years longer and in fact should never need replacement. So they offer the best, most cost-effective option when viewed as a long-term investment in your health, comfort and well-being.
They require exactly the same care as natural teeth: daily brushing and flossing, along with regular dental checkups and professional cleanings. Although implant teeth will never decay, the gum tissues around them can become inflamed or infected in the absence of good oral hygiene. Properly cared-for dental implants should last a lifetime.
Strictly speaking, implants can't be rejected because they contain no living cells or genetically coded material. The titanium of which they are made is completely biocompatible, and allergies are extremely rare. But an implant can fail to integrate with the jawbone if an infection develops in the absence of good oral hygiene, or if it is subjected to biting forces too soon. However, this is rare; implants regularly achieve success rates in excess of 95%.

After suffering a concussion and broken molars, Dr Fox came in and fixed me right up on the 4th of July! His sincere kindness and generosity brought me close to tears. You can't find this caliber of genuine care anywhere else. My wife and I are now lifelong patients and advocates of Dr Fox and Evergreen Family Dentistry!

Dr. Fox and his staff are fantastic from start to finish! After moving and having trouble finding a good dentist, I still travel 45 minutes to see Dr. Fox. He and his staff's integrity, friendliness, and attention to detail are worth the drive.

This office is extremely welcoming, friendly and professional providing high-quality and knowledgeable care at every visit. I am a dentist's daughter and Dr. Fox's warm demeanor and trust reminds me of the care I received with own my father. I highly recommend his entire practice for the whole family.

Dr Fox has been my dentist for nearly twenty years. I don't even live in Evergreen anymore and keep coming to his office. He's always been fair, professional, and a real nice person. He's a fine member of the community as well, a former volunteer firefighter.

Dr. Fox and his staff run a highly professional and sincere practice. They know your name when you walk in the door. We've had everything from cavities to root canals to whitening, all with great results. And if you need a specialist, every referral has been A+. He's great with kids, and scared-d-cats, like my husband!
