Don’t Settle For a Peg Leg

April 2, 2014

Thinking about the difference between an implant and another restoration option is kind of like thinking about the difference between a state of the art prosthetic leg and a peg leg. If you were faced with the choice, which would you choose? We have a feeling that the function and comfort of that prosthetic leg would make your decision a no brainer, even though the state of the art solution costs a bit more. The same thought process makes choosing a dental implant an easy decision.

You might be struggling with the idea of paying a little bit extra for a more high tech solution, but this is about more than just the newest technology. Choosing a dental implant is about choosing a restoration that will look, function, and feel like a natural tooth so you don’t feel like you have a peg leg of a tooth.

Why Does It Work?

Comparing a peg leg and a prosthetic leg is easy. It’s obvious which one is better for you and your body, but comparing an implant and a different restoration (think a bridge or partial) can be more difficult. A dental implant works better because it is as close to a natural tooth as you can get without having your natural tooth. The implant itself is placed directly into the jaw bone, just like a tooth root. The crown we place on top of the implant will look, feel, and function just like your natural tooth. No one will be able to tell the difference, not even you!

Make the best of your decision. Choose the best for your mouth! Don’t settle for a peg leg when you can have that state of the art prosthetic! Contact us today to learn more your options for dental restorations. We look forward to seeing you in the office soon!

I’m the type of person that is scared of the dentist have been my whole life. I scheduled consultation with Dr Ron and he answered all my questions and more. He and his staff are great they made me feel comfortable the whole time. They used sedation for my implant procedure and it was the best decision I have ever made!! I had zero pain whatsoever. The best thing is that they have gave me the ability to smile again and to be happy. Thank you to everyone at New Albany Implants. I recommend them to anyone needing dental implants.

Amazing experience. If anyone is anxious about seeing a dentist I can assure you don’t have to be with Dr. Receveur. My only regret is not having it done sooner. His staff is pretty awesome too.

I recently had implants put in by Dr. Receveur. I was scheduled to have sedation that morning, but wasn't able to due to my sugar issues from diabetes. He assured me he would keep me comfortable so I agreed to go ahead with the procedure. He did just that, he kept me comfortable as promised and I didn't feel a thing. During the procedure he also talked to me the whole time explaining what he was doing, which also helped ease my anxiety. The entire staff there are so nice and informative, they can answer any questions you may have. All I can say is to anyone that is hesitant to have this procedure done, I honestly wish I would have had this done a long time ago! Dr. Receveur and his staff are AMAZING, and I would recommend them to anyone in a heartbeat!
