Premier Family Dental: Your One-Stop-Shop for Dental Implants<\/span><\/h3>\n

For their accessibility and high success rate, dental implants are one of the most popular choices in tooth replacement today. And at Premier Family Dental in Waco, <\/span>Dr. Rick Cofer<\/span><\/a> and his team of professionals can complete your entire dental implant procedure under one roof. That\u2019s why we like to think of ourselves as your one-stop-shop for dental implants in Waco.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dental Implants: What They Are, How They\u2019re Placed<\/span><\/h4>\n

Dental implants are tiny titanium posts that are implanted directly into your jaw in our Waco, TX dental office. Think of the implants like a very small golf tee — your gum is the grass that supports the implant, or the bottom of the tee. Once implantation has taken place, you\u2019ll have a recovery period of two to four months, during which your jawbone will fuse to the implant. It sounds like a long time to go without teeth, but don\u2019t worry — you\u2019ll be given a temporary tooth replacement in the meantime.<\/span><\/p>\n

Once your jawbone has recovered and your dental implants are super sturdy, you\u2019ll come back to the office of Premier Family Dental. Dr. Cofer will expose the tops of your implants and place an abutment (or the head of the golf tee) which will connect your tooth replacement to the dental implant. <\/span><\/p>\n

The result? A sturdy, beautiful tooth replacement — all completed under one roof in Waco, TX.<\/span><\/p>\n

Who Makes a Good Candidate for Dental Implants?<\/span><\/h4>\n

If you\u2019re missing one or more teeth and are eager to complete your smile, you could be an excellent candidate for dental implants in Waco. To make sure, you\u2019ll need to schedule an appointment for a consultation with Dr. Cofer. During your initial appointment, we\u2019ll check for two things to verify that dental implants can work for you. <\/span><\/p>\n

First, we\u2019ll make sure you have enough existing jawbone structure to support your dental implants. Then, we\u2019ll confirm that you\u2019re in good oral health, and free from any conditions that might inhibit the healing of your dental implants — like diabetes or gum disease.<\/span><\/p>\n
