    The Dental Implant Procedure Lacey, WA

    The Dental Implant Procedure

    At Herbert E. Todd, DDS PLLC, we specialize in treating patients that are suffering from The Dental Implant Procedure. If you have been avoiding the dentist due to fear of what a procedure could be like or simply do not enjoy having dental work done, give us a call. In our dental office, we will do everything in our power to ensure that you are comfortable and relaxed, regardless of what procedure is being performed. When you visit our office, Dr. Todd will meet with you to discuss what treatments you need and create a plan for how to keep your mouth healthy while easing any fears that you have about dentistry or procedures in general. This way you will be informed and empowered to make decisions regarding dental care without experiencing any anxiety.

    How can I ease my fears about dental care without medication?

    When you visit our dental office, we can discuss ways that you can prevent experiencing anxiety while receiving dental care. In addition to the medication that we can provide, you can try relaxing by drinking a glass of tea. There are several natural varieties that you can purchase at the health foods store that will relax and calm you. At times, this can be enough to put you into a naturally relaxed state. Some patients also find that they benefit from meditation and acupuncture.

    How can I prepare for my dentist appointment?
    Another easy way to help calm your fears is to visit our dental office and meet with Dr. Todd without having actual dental work performed. Taking the time to tour our office, where you can sit in the dentist chair and have a conversation, will allow you to become familiar with our staff and office environment. This way when you do have your teeth cleaned, and dental work performed; you are doing so in an atmosphere that you feel comfortable in with procedures being completed by friendly and familiar faces. During your consultation, we can also discuss what you can expect from a teeth cleaning or a specific procedure. This will help you to prepare mentally for how long it will take, what dental tools will be used, what you could feel during the process and what the recovery period will be, if any. At Herbert E. Todd, DDS PLLC, we have found that the more informed our patients are the more comfortable and relaxed they feel. This one appointment can help to alleviate the dental anxiety that you are experiencing.

    Tips for Caring For Your New Set of Dentures

    Dentures can replace your teeth so that if you have, for whatever reason, lost one or more, of your adult teeth, you do not have to go through life feeling self-conscious every time that you …


    Definition of Prosthodontic Terminology

    Abutment
    A connector, placed on, or built into, the top of the dental implant, to connect the implant to the replacement tooth or teeth.
    Bridge
    Multiple replacement teeth that are fixed in place via attachment to dental implants, natural adjacent teeth, or a combination of the two.
    Crown
    A replacement tooth, custom made to match your natural teeth.
    Dental Implant
    A dental implant is an artificial tooth root that is placed into your jaw to hold a replacement tooth or bridge. Dental implants may be an option for people who have lost a tooth or teeth due to periodontal disease, an injury, or some other reason.
    Osseointegration
    Fusing to, or integrating with, bone. Dental implants placed in the bone as substitutes for tooth roots form a secure and stable foundation for replacement teeth when your natural bone grows against the implant through a process called osseointegration.
    Periodontal
    Literally “around the tooth”
