When to get dental implants

Considering dental implants? Now may be the right time to see if you qualify. Discover if implants could be the right solution for you with guidance from our implant experts.

Signs it may be time for dental implants

If you’re ready to get back to loving how you look and feel, a customized dental implant treatment plan can restore your smile and confidence. Do these signs look familiar to you? If so, it’s time to take the next step.

Missing teeth

Dental implants can replace one tooth or multiple teeth. Each surgically placed implant will be nearly as strong and durable as your natural teeth. Plus, they are visually indistinguishable so you can eat and talk confidently again.

Sunken facial appearance

When you lose your teeth, your jawbone can shrink and lose its mass due to lack of stimulation. Over time, this bone loss can lead to changes in your facial structure and may cause you to look older than you are. Implants can prevent this from happening and help you see that familiar face in the mirror again.

Want a denture alternative

Maybe you’re dealing with a loose denture or bridge, or you’re tired of using denture adhesives. Dental implants are a great alternative to conventional dentures because they are permanently part of your mouth. Take a step up and explore our secure-fitting implant denture—or restore your entire smile with full-mouth implants.

Learn the benefits of dental implants with Sheree B.’s experience from a partial denture to dental implants.

Starting the journey

When Sheree found Celebrate Dental, she was struggling with her partial denture. She didn’t have a go-to dentist, but by the time her first visit was over, she had a whole team supporting her.

Planning together

Together with her new implant expert and care team, she explored holistic, long-term options designed for her dental needs today and tomorrow.

After choosing dental implants, Sheree took the next step to extract teeth with a team dedicated to keeping her comfortable throughout her journey.

Smile and live again.

Why Our Patients Love Us

Hands down the absolute best dentistry in town!!! You can tell that they love what they do here.The energy is positive and bright. Dr.Lee & Michelle actually listened to me and made my whole experience beyond comfortable. I felt like they really wanted to help me. They care.They know how to communicate. Celebrate accepts all kinds of insurance. This place is a blessing.
They don’t make you wait 3 months to be seen either!
I had to add that my teeth look and feel amazing today. Dr.Lee went above and beyond!!!

Dr. M and Courtney were so great! My daughter is 14 months and this was her first visit. She’s also been teething so I was nervous of how the visit would go but it was super quick and went really well! I’m so happy our daughter has such a good dentist! They were so reassuring about all our concerns.

Dr Lee, Michelle, and the rest of the staff here took such good care of me. I had some major anxiety issues and they were so kind and patient with me. Highly recommend. 🙏🏻

My daughter is 11 years old with high anxiety. She needed her baby K9 pulled and her adult k9 brought down in its place. We had been using another local dentist but they could not handle her needs so I scheduled an appointment without knowing anything about it. They were very knowledgeable and had great customer service. They got her in right away and when we arrived the office was very spacious and clean. Everyone was super nice and by the end of her appointment my daughter said she didn’t even want to leave! Dr. M was very professional and he was vert gentle with my daughter. He took time to explain everything to her before he did anything. Dr. M took his time to ask personal questions about us, he made us feel like family and his staff is superb. We were referred to Dr. Lee for further evaluation but he too was very professional, knowledgeable and kind to my daughter. I could not believe, I have not heard of this clinic before now. I have now switched my family of 4, to have our cleanings and all dental work done here. I would highly suggest Celebrate Dental to anyone!!

Such a great environment! Dr. M, Courtney, and all the others that helped us were such wonderful people! They were very calm and understanding. Listened to all of my daughter’s concerns. The best part was that they accepted our insurance! Finding a good dentist who takes Medicaid is so hard and I’m so glad we found them!

One of the only dentists in Springfield that take adult Medicaid! I’ve always felt so incredibly welcomed by each and every staff member I’ve spoken too! They have been amazing at scheduling appointments and are even open on snow days!
