Welcome to Alla Agamov, DMD, where we specialize in creating perfect smiles with multiple dental implants. Our family and cosmetic dentistry practice in Sharon, Massachusetts, offers top-of-the-line implant options customized to each patient’s needs, ensuring the most natural-looking results. Let us help you achieve the confident and beautiful smile you deserve.
Complete Your Smile With Durable Replacement
Multiple implants are an innovative solution for those who have missing teeth. Unlike traditional dentures, multiple implants are permanent and offer greater stability and comfort. These implants are essentially artificial tooth roots of titanium surgically placed into the jawbone. Once the implants are securely placed, natural-looking prosthetic teeth or bridges are attached, filling in the gaps and restoring the patient’s smile.
Benefits of Multiple Implants:
- Improved appearance and confidence with a complete and natural-looking smile
- Greater comfort compared to traditional dentures
- Improved ability to chew and speak clearly
- No need for messy adhesives or removing and cleaning dentures
- Long-lasting and durable solution that can last a lifetime with proper care
- Prevents bone loss in the jaw, preserving the natural facial structure
- Easy maintenance with regular brushing and flossing, just like natural teeth
- Can replace multiple missing teeth without individual implants for each tooth
The Multiple Implants Process
If you’re considering multiple implants to replace missing teeth, it’s important to understand the process involved. At Alla Agamov, DMD, our experienced team will guide you through each step of the process to ensure that you feel comfortable and confident throughout the treatment.
Step 1: Initial Consultation
During your initial consultation, we’ll thoroughly evaluate your dental health to ensure multiple implants are the right solution. We’ll take X-rays and impressions of your teeth and gums to create a detailed and personalized treatment plan. This will help us determine the number of implants required, the placement location, and the type of implant-supported bridge that will work best for you.
Step 2: Implant Placement
The surgical placement of the implant posts is a crucial step in the multiple implant process. During the surgery, our experienced team will carefully and precisely place the implant posts into your jawbone, ensuring they’re stable and secure. We’ll use local anesthesia or sedation to ensure your comfort during the procedure. After the surgery, you’ll need to allow the implant to fuse with your jawbone through osseointegration. This can take several months.
Step 3: Abutment Placement
After the implant has fully fused with your jawbone, we’ll attach an abutment to the implant post. The abutment serves as a connector between the implant and the prosthetic tooth or bridge. We’ll carefully select an abutment that matches the implant and provides a secure prosthetic tooth foundation. Our experienced team will ensure that the abutment placement is precise and comfortable to ensure the best possible outcome for you.
Step 4: Prosthetic Tooth Placement
After the abutment is attached to the implant post, we’ll place the prosthetic tooth or teeth onto the abutment. In the case of implant-supported bridges, the prosthetic teeth are attached to two or more implant posts to fill in the gaps left by missing teeth. We’ll take great care to ensure that the dental bridge fits your mouth perfectly, feels comfortable, and looks natural. Our team will customize the bridge to match the size, shape, and color of your existing teeth.
How Multiple Implants Work
Multiple implants are artificial tooth roots of titanium surgically placed into the jawbone to support prosthetic teeth. The implant fuses with the bone through osseointegration, which creates a stable and secure foundation for the prosthetic teeth. In cases where multiple teeth are missing, bridges can fill in the gaps. Implant-supported bridges are made of multiple prosthetic teeth attached to two or more implant posts, providing a natural-looking and long-lasting solution for missing teeth.
Coming to the office is always a great experience. I know that I am in the most capable of hands whether it is for a cleaning/check up or having some other dental procedure. As always, when I come to the office I feel like I am surrounded by friends and family. The entire staff is really wonderful to work with.

FAQ
What are the benefits of multiple implants over traditional bridges?
When compared to traditional bridges, multiple implants offer several advantages. Unlike traditional bridges, multiple implants do not rely on adjacent teeth for support. This means that adjacent teeth remain untouched and do not require any modification. Additionally, multiple implants provide greater stability and longevity than traditional bridges and help prevent bone loss in the jaw.
What are the benefits of multiple implants over partial dentures?
When compared to partial dentures, multiple implants offer several advantages. Unlike partial dentures, multiple implants are permanent and do not require removal for cleaning. They also provide greater stability and comfort than partial dentures, allowing you to chew and speak confidently.
How many teeth can multiple implants replace?
The number of teeth that can be replaced with multiple implants depends on the individual’s dental needs. Multiple implants can replace several missing teeth or a full arch of missing teeth. At Alla Agamov, DMD, we’ll carefully evaluate your dental health and determine the number of implants required to achieve the best possible outcome.
How long do multiple implants last?
Multiple implants are designed to be a long-term solution for missing teeth. With proper care, they can last a lifetime. The lifespan of multiple implants can depend on several factors, including the patient’s oral hygiene habits and overall dental health.
