Oct 04, 2014 /prREACH/ -- Dr. Leif Loberg, cosmetic dentist in Laguna Hills, CA is helping his patients with missing, broken, or failing teeth find a natural looking, permanent solution for tooth loss with dental implants. Using the latest technology in restorative dentistry, Dr. Loberg can provide patients with permanent replacements for their teeth that will last a lifetime.
Each year, millions of adults in America lose permanent teeth due to injury, decay, smoking, or failing teeth as a result of poor health. Although bridges and dentures have been a traditional method of restoring function after tooth loss, these methods still leave the patient prone to bone resorption and gum recession in areas of the mouth with missing teeth. Permanent dental implants not only restore function and aesthetics to their near-natural state, but they also help keep bone and gum health in optimal condition.
“Dental implants are undoubtedly the most functional cost effective way for patients to permanently restore their smile for a lifetime,” said Dr. Loberg. “The great thing about dental implants is that once the procedure is completed, patients don’t have to worry about them breaking or needing to be replaced ever again, as they often do with dentures and bridges.”
Dental implants consist of a small titanium stud, or screw, that is implanted into the jawbone and an artificial porcelain crown that is attached to the stud. When completed, the entire implant reflects the structure of the natural tooth, and in many instances, is even stronger and provides more biting force than natural teeth.
The dental implant procedure is completed by first surgically implanting the titanium screw into the jawbone of the patient where they have experienced tooth loss. The titanium material is given several months to heal and bond with the jawbone, after which the porcelain crown is attached. As a complete unit, the dental implant performs, feels, and looks just like a natural tooth.
In addition to dental implants, Dr. Loberg provides a variety of other specialized dental services such as root canal treatments, periodontics, inlays, and teeth whitening. For patients who desire straighter teeth without having to turn to traditional braces, Dr. Loberg is a preferred Invisalign dentist. He is also a highly trained sedation dentist and can provide IV sedation and other services to patients to help calm their anxiety about dental visits.
Dr. Loberg has been practicing dentistry for nearly 15 years and has become well known in the Laguna Hills area for his skills and expertise, particularly in implant dentistry. He graduated in 2001 from New York University College of Dentistry and since receiving his DDS degree, has constantly stayed involved with continuing education courses to provide his patients with the best level of care. Dr. Loberg has received the Waterpik Prosthodontic Award and is also the co-founder of the Orange County Implant Study Club for General Practitioners. Each year, Dr. Loberg and his staff host the Dentistry from the Heart event that provides Orange County residents in need with free dental care.
