Missing teeth affects more than your smile. They can compromise your ability to chew, alter the shape of your face over time, and lead to bone loss in the jaw that changes your facial structure permanently. Dental implants are widely considered the gold standard for replacing missing teeth because they function like natural teeth and are built to last. If you are exploring your options for replacing one or many teeth, a consultation with a board-certified periodontist is the best place to start.
At Middlesex Periodontics & Dental Implants, we provide implant care for patients throughout Cranbury, NJ, and the surrounding communities. Dr. Daniel Reich is a Diplomate of the American Board of Periodontology who earned his D.M.D. from the University of Pennsylvania and completed his periodontal residency at SUNY Stony Brook. He also serves as Director and Associate Professor of Periodontics at Touro College of Dental Medicine, bringing advanced academic knowledge directly into patient care. No referral is needed to schedule an appointment, and same-day emergency appointments are available for urgent concerns.
Dental implants are titanium posts placed surgically into the jawbone, where they fuse with the bone through a process called osseointegration. Once integrated, the post serves as a stable root for a custom-made crown, bridge, or other restoration. The result is a replacement tooth that looks, feels, and functions like the real thing. According to a meta-analysis published in the National Institutes of Health’s research database, dental implant survival rates exceed 90% even after 20 years, making them one of the most reliable restorations in modern dentistry.
Unlike dentures or bridges, implants do not rely on neighboring teeth for support and do not slip or shift during eating or speaking. Because the implant integrates directly with the jawbone, it stimulates the bone the same way a natural tooth root does. This helps preserve bone density over time, preventing the gradual jaw deterioration that often follows tooth loss when left untreated.
Cranbury residents have access to a full range of implant solutions at our practice. Whether you are missing one tooth or an entire arch, there is a treatment path tailored to your specific needs and goals. Here is an overview of the options we provide:
Each of these options is designed to restore both the appearance and function of your natural smile, and Dr. Reich will help you determine which approach aligns best with your oral health and long-term goals.
Not every patient is immediately ready for implant placement. If tooth loss has resulted in significant bone loss in the jaw, a bone graft for dental implants may be necessary before the implant can be placed. This procedure restores the volume and density needed to support a stable implant over the long term. It is more common than many patients realize, particularly when a tooth has been missing for an extended period.
Our team thoroughly evaluates each patient using advanced 3D imaging technology to assess the jawbone’s condition and plan treatment with precision. This technology allows Dr. Reich to visualize the implant site in detail before making a single incision, which leads to more predictable outcomes and a smoother recovery. If a bone graft is recommended, we walk you through exactly what to expect so you feel fully prepared at every stage of the process.
Most adults who are in reasonably good health are candidates for dental implants. Ideal candidates have adequate jawbone density to support the implant, healthy gum tissue, and no uncontrolled systemic conditions that could affect healing. Patients who smoke or have conditions such as diabetes may still be candidates, though these factors can influence the treatment timeline and outcomes.
The best way to find out if implants are right for you is through a thorough consultation and evaluation. Dr. Reich takes the time to review your full medical and dental history, assess your bone structure, and discuss your goals before recommending a treatment plan.
Cost is one of the most common concerns patients have when considering dental implants, and we want to make sure finances never stand in the way of the care you need. Single dental implants at our practice start at $2,500, and we offer flexible financing through Cherry to help make treatment manageable with payment plans that fit a range of budgets. We also participate with Delta Dental Premier and Cigna PPO and work with many other dental PPO plans to help maximize your coverage.
