Dental Implants
Missing teeth can affect more than your smile; when we have missing teeth, other complications occur, such as biting difficulties and affected speech. Dental implants offer a long-lasting, predictable solution to tooth loss by providing an anchor for new teeth. At Brooklyn Dentist, we perform dental implants in Brooklyn NY for patients who are searching for a beautiful and functional smile.
What Is a Dental Implant?
Dental implants are the result of significant advancements in dental research. Dental implants are small titanium posts that are surgically placed in the bone in place of the tooth's natural root. This post is fitted with an abutment, onto which new crowns and bridges or dentures are fixed. Dental implants can also function as a stable anchor for permanent dentures and are known for their retention and ability to nurture good oral health.
Who is Qualified to Get Dental Implants?
To get dental implants in Brooklyn, you should be in otherwise good dental health. Signs of periodontitis or bone loss from missing teeth should be discussed with our dentists before your treatment plan can be put into action. Patients who are considering getting dental implants should also be non-smokers, as tobacco use prevents your body from healing after the surgical placement of dental implants.
What Are Different Types of Dental Implants?
There are multiple types of dental implant restorations available in Brooklyn depending on the patient's expectations and resources. Here are a few popular options:

Patient Testimonials
My overall experience was very positive, thanks to both the dentist and the general office staff. Dr. Shahin is thorough and patient, only recommending necessary procedures without pushing for unnecessary treatments. Everyone in the office is polite and friendly. After dealing with poor implant service at a corporate dental office in Mapleton, Brooklyn, it’s refreshing to visit Brooklyn Dentist and receive such considerate and respectful care.
From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. The entire staff is incredibly friendly and efficient. My cleaning and filling were 99% pain-free. It was the best dental experience I've ever had. I hadn't visited a dentist in about three years, but there was no judgment—just a clear plan of action. Despite having about 4.5 hours of dental implant work needed, they managed to complete it in just two sessions, which were smooth and stress-free. Do yourself a favor and visit this office if you live near Mapleton; you’ll have no worries about your next dental appointment.
Dr. Shahin is a very knowledgeable dentist with a wonderful bedside manner. I highly recommend Brooklyn Dentist to anyone seeking honest advice, advanced technology, a clean office, and friendly staff. With an extensive dental history, including two dental implant surgeries and a grandfather who was an orthodontist, I thought I knew a lot. Yet, Dr. Shahin provided answers to questions I hadn't even asked, which was very reassuring. He also identified the source of my pain—something another dentist in Mapleton, Brooklyn missed—and correctly determined that my filling did not need replacement, contrary to what I was previously told. If you want an honest opinion and a thorough dental care experience, Dr. Shahin is the one to see. :)
