What Are Dental Implants?

The easiest way to describe a dental implant is to compare it to a natural tooth. Natural teeth have two parts, a crown and a root. The crown is the visible part of the tooth that you use when chewing. Under the gums and attached to the jawbone is the root, which supports the crown. In basic terms, a dental implant replaces the root of a tooth.

The implants themselves are tiny titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone where the teeth are missing.  These metal anchors act as tooth root substitutes. The bone bonds with the titanium, creating a strong foundation for artificial teeth.  Small posts that protrude through the gums are then attached to the implant. These posts provide stable anchors for artificial replacement teeth.  Implants also help preserve facial structure, preventing bone deterioration that occurs when teeth are missing.

Dental Implants Versus Bridges or Dentures

Many of our patients opt for dental implants over dentures or bridges because they offer unmatched durability and functionality. 

Unlike dentures, which can slip and cause discomfort, implants are securely anchored into your jawbone, providing a stable and permanent solution. Additionally, implants prevent bone loss, maintaining the structure of your face and jaw over time. They function just like natural teeth, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile confidently.

Dental implants offer several advantages over dentures or bridges including:

  • Longevity: With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime.
  • Bone Preservation: Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss.
  • Natural Appearance: They look and feel like your natural teeth.
  • No Impact on Adjacent Teeth: Unlike bridges, implants don’t require altering neighboring teeth.
  • Improved Comfort: Implants eliminate the discomfort and inconvenience of removable dentures.

Are You A Candidate for Dental Implants?

Almost any person who is missing one or more teeth is a candidate for dental implants. Whether you have lost teeth in an accident, had one or more teeth extracted, or were born without all of your teeth (congenitally missing teeth), it is likely dental implants can be used to replace those teeth.

If you have extensive tooth loss and are searching for a quick return to a natural-looking, fully functional smile, the All-on-4® dental implants offered by our NJ oral surgeons may be the solution for you. Schedule time to speak to one of our Board Certified Oral Surgeons in NJ.

Patient Review By Diane Cutrone

It's the day after my implant surgery and my pain level is at zero. I can't say enough about the excellent care I received at BOMS. Dr. Diaz and his assistant Christina were wonderful. They made me feel so comfortable. And the office is meticulous in every way! I also had a previous very positive experience there with Dr. Han. I would recommend BOMS to anyone, especially Dr. Diaz.

Patient Review By H OB

I had an excellent experience with my oral surgery at this practice. From the consultation to the follow-up text messages everything was handled with professionalism and care. Dr Feuerstein was incredibly skilled and made sure I felt informed and comfortable every step of the way. The procedure went smoothly, and my recovery is going well. His assistant, Alison was kind, reassuring, and always available to answer questions. I highly recommend them if you need any oral surgery done—you’ll be in great hands!

Patient Review By Lisa Infantino

"Dr. Feuerstein is an awesome oral surgeon. After having a miserable experience with another oral surgeon in White Plains, NY to extract a broken tooth, I decided I wouldn't go back for the post implant I needed to get. Instead, I called Bergen Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery. A good friend highly recommended I see Dr. Diamond there. She couldn't stop going on about how kind he was, and what a good oral surgeon he was (I should mention that she's pretty tough to impress!). However, Dr D wasn't available to see a new patient during the timeframe in which I needed to be seen after my bone graft healed. But Dr. Feuerstein was! I am very happy that Dr F completed my surgical process and implanted my 2-part post. He is kind, patient, and was vigilant about which drugs to use and not use during and after the procedure because I have many drug allergies and sensitivities (the other place did NOT care!). He did his best to keep me calm (I was a nervous wreck) and talked me through each step he was completing. Although at the time I'm quite sure I didn't show it, lol, I really appreciated his gentle nature. Oh, and he did a great job, too! My post implant healed really well. Lastly, he is honest. When I arrived for the second part of my post implant, wouldn't you know that I partially broke another tooth two days before! I thought for sure that I was in for another extraction and post/tooth implant process. Nope! Dr F said the bottom molar was 'in important tooth' and that if it's possible, it should be saved. He recommended I see my general dentist, and if he thought it should be extracted, then Dr F said he'd do it--but not until then. Wow, huh? I'm happy to report that all I needed was a crown and not an extraction. I'm really glad that tooth was saved. I'm not so sure another oral surgeon would have passed up the opportunity to do a procedure on a willing patient (I don't think that one in White Plains would have!). I highly recommend and appreciate 'my' oral surgeon, Dr. Feuerstein, and the Bergen Oral Surgery Franklin Lakes office."

Patient Review By Josette Lucido Balestrieri

"As a parent, taking my nine-year-old child to an oral surgeon was an incredibly frightening experience. However, Dr. Mina Boulos and his team at Bergen Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery immediately put us at ease. They took such wonderful care of my son and made him feel completely comfortable throughout the entire visit. When I found out he needed an IV, I was honestly terrified — but the team handled it with such professionalism and compassion that it eased my fears. We walked in as strangers and left feeling like family. To any parent who may be anxious about their child’s oral surgery, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Boulos and his team. The care and experience our son received were exceptional. In fact, my husband and I have decided to use Bergen Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery for any of our future needs as well. We truly recommend this practice to all families looking for expert care delivered with kindness and heart.

Patient Review By Debbie D

Great experience with the entire office. Dr. Boulos is excellent. He took his time to make sure my implant was done correctly and would last even if that meant the process took longer. He was detailed, communicative and reassuring before, during and after the procedures. He worked closely with my dentist to limit the amount of time I would be without a front tooth. I would highly recommend Dr. Boulos and the office.

Patient Review By Carol Lehman

Dr Diaz and his staff were friendly, kind and amazing! From the time I walked in till the time I walked out they walked me through everything! They are also very cutting edge! I have osteoporosis. Last June I had a reclast infusion to strengthen my bones. However, in 1% of people it can affect healing in the mouth. (Who knew?) So to help with the healing they drew my blood, put into a machine and injected into my tooth socket where they did the extraction.

Patient Review By Vera Kennedy

Great experience with BOM. The staff were professional and kind. The oral surgeon was excellent. He used stem cells from my own body to heal the area where he removed 4 teeth. I have very little pain 1 day post op. So impressed. Thank you all. I highly recommend them.

Patient Review By Karen Cullinane

This entire office, including Dr. Boulos made this visit seamless and efficient. His dedication to patient care is completely evident in all interactions. My son’s developmental disabilities make him a difficult patient to work with, and the team at BOMS consistently demonstrated a high level of professionalism. Wonderful to find an expert & amazing Doctor! Thank you for doing such a great job taking care of Dan. Regards, Karen & Bill Cullinane

Patient Review By Shella Redensky

I am so lucky to have this amazing oral surgeon Dr. Novelli . This was my 4 th implant with this Dr. I could not believe how quick Dr. Novelli pulled my bad tooth and put a very “pretty” implant instead, and it was very easy for me. He has a great team with him. I am grateful to his wonderful bilingual assistant Natasha. Thank you everyone in this amazing and warm office. Everyone was great and I highly recommend this office. It was done yesterday and I feel great today.
