Tooth loss doesn’t have to mean settling for uncomfortable dentures or bridges that damage healthy teeth. Modern dental implants integrate directly with your jawbone, creating a permanent foundation for replacement teeth that won’t shift, slip, or require messy adhesives. Unlike traditional solutions that merely sit on top of your gums, implants become part of your jaw structure, preserving bone density and preventing the sunken facial appearance that often develops after tooth loss.
Middlesex Periodontics & Dental Implants, PC provides comprehensive dental implant services for Monroe Township residents, including those in Greenbriar at Whittingham, Clearbrook Community, and Monroe Village. Dr. Daniel Reich, a board-certified periodontist with 28 years of experience and Diplomacy from the American Board of Periodontology, offers advanced implant solutions tailored to your specific needs. Whether you need a single tooth replaced or full-arch restoration, our conveniently located East Brunswick office provides accessible care for Monroe Township patients.
Dental implants function like natural tooth roots. A titanium post is surgically placed into your jawbone, where it fuses with the bone tissue over several months. This process, called osseointegration, creates a stable foundation for replacement teeth. Unlike bridges or dentures, implants don’t rely on adjacent teeth for support and help preserve your jawbone density.
The benefits extend beyond aesthetics. Implants restore your ability to eat your favorite foods without discomfort or worry. They eliminate the slipping and clicking associated with traditional dentures. Most importantly, they prevent the bone loss that naturally occurs after tooth extraction, maintaining your facial structure over time.
Every patient has unique needs. We offer several implant solutions to address different situations:
Each option has specific advantages depending on your oral health, bone density, and personal goals.
Your journey begins with a comprehensive examination. Dr. Reich evaluates your oral health, takes detailed imaging, and discusses your treatment goals. This assessment determines whether you’re a good candidate for implants and identifies any preparatory work needed.
If bone grafting is necessary, this procedure comes first. The graft material strengthens areas where bone has deteriorated, creating adequate support for the implant. Healing typically takes several months before implant placement can proceed.
During the implant surgery, Dr. Reich places the titanium posts into your jawbone with precision. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, and most patients report minimal discomfort. After placement, the implants need time to integrate with your bone, usually three to six months for the lower jaw and four to seven months for the upper jaw. Once integration is complete, an abutment connects the implant to your replacement tooth. Your final restoration, whether a crown, bridge, or overdenture, is then attached. The entire process requires patience, but the results provide a lifetime solution when properly maintained.
Dr. Reich completed his Doctor of Dental Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine in 1991. He earned his Specialty Certificate in Periodontics from SUNY Stony Brook in 1997 and currently serves as Director and Associate Professor of Periodontics at Touro College of Dental Medicine. His board certification demonstrates advanced knowledge in complex periodontal procedures and implant dentistry.

For procedures not fully covered by insurance, we offer Cherry financing. This payment option allows you to spread treatment costs over manageable monthly payments, making dental implants more accessible to patients in Greenbriar at Whittingham, Clearbrook Community, and Monroe Village.
Proper care ensures your implants last a lifetime. Implants require the same oral hygiene as natural teeth. Brush twice daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush and floss once a day using unwaxed tape or implant-specific floss.
Regular professional cleanings are essential. Schedule visits every three to six months so we can monitor your implants and clean areas difficult to reach at home. During these appointments, we check the stability of your implants and the health of the surrounding gum tissue.
Avoid habits that could damage your implants. Don’t chew ice or hard candy, and if you grind your teeth at night, wear a protective nightguard. These simple precautions protect your investment and prevent complications.
