To Our Practice Family,

We hope this letter finds you and your family healthy!  Our community has been through a lot these past few months, and we are all looking forward to getting back to “normal”.  While many things have changed, one thing that has remained the same is our commitment to your safety.

Infection control has always been a top priority for our office, as you have seen during your visits.  Our infection control protocols have been designed so that when you receive care, it’s both safe and comfortable.  We want to remind of the infection control protocols we follow and inform you of additional changes that we have made.

Our office has always followed infection control protocols endorsed by the American Dental Association, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.  We follow the activities of these agencies so that we are up-to-date on any and all new rulings or guidance that is issued.

You will see some changes when it is time for your next appointment.  We made these changes to protect our guests as well as our team.  For example:

  1. Our office will contact you before your appointment to ask screening questions.  You will be asked the same when you arrive for your appointment
  2. We have hand sanitizer that we will ask you to use as you enter the office.  You will find this sanitizer throughout our office.
  3. You will be asked to come alone for your appointment or only one parent if a minor.  This will enable us to have fewer people in the office for social distancing.
  4. Appointments will be scheduled to allow social distancing.  The appointments will be staggered which means there may be fewer options available for scheduling your appointment
  5. We will do our best to allow greater time between guests to minimize your wait.
  6. We will be using enhanced protocols between each guest to ensure your safety

We look forward to seeing you all again- it has been way too long since we have been with our practice family!  We are happy to answer any and all of your questions or concerns about the new, enhanced protocols we are using to keep you and us safe.  To make an appointment, give us a call at 978-704-8329

Thank you for being part of our practice family.  We value your trust and loyalty and look forward to welcoming you back to our practice!

Sincerely,

Brian C McDowell D.D.S. LVIF, Christine Hache R.D.H., Marylisa Allen R.D.H., Gabriella Perez

Implants Will Give You Something to Smile About

Teeth implants are the preferred method for restoring missing teeth. These small posts can be inserted into your jawbone by an oral surgeon where your teeth are missing. After a period of healing, when new bone cells will grow around the implants, your implants will be ready to support replacement teeth.

Your new teeth will look and function just like your natural teeth. Besides giving you back your teeth, your implants will help keep your jawbone from deteriorating. We’ll discuss all your implant options in detail, which could include:

  • Implant-Supported Crowns – A sturdy new crown can be crafted from porcelain and placed atop your implant. It will restore your biting and chewing capacity and blend in naturally with your other teeth.
  • Implant-Supported Bridges – An implant bridge will anchor to at least two dental implants and fill in the empty space left by a series of missing teeth.
  • Implant-Retained Dentures – We’ll attach a set of dentures to your dental implants using a system of snaps and balls. These dentures offer superior comfort and performance over conventional dentures.
  • Implant-Supported Dentures – These are our most comfortable style of dentures. They attach to a metal bar that is secured to your implants.

Get your smile back with dental implants in Fitchburg. Call Brian C. McDowell, DDS today at 978-401-9081 to schedule a consultation. You can also use our online form. We’re open early mornings and late afternoons.

Common Questions About Dental Implants

Yes, they will! One of the best features of titanium dental implants is that they chemically fuse with your jawbone in a process known as osseointegration. Over a period of a few months, new bone material will grow around the implant, and the two become one. The implant stimulates the bone just like a natural tooth root does to help keep it strong and healthy.

Our office works with a trusted oral surgeon in the area who will place your dental implants according to the treatment plan you have decided on with our team. After a healing period of a few months, your implants will be ready to support new replacement teeth, and you will then return to our office to have them attached to your implants.

The answer to that question depends on a number of factors – how many implants are needed, the location of the implants, the condition of your gums, your bone health, and the type of replacement teeth you choose. We’ll give you all the facts and figures you need to make a wise decision about your implant treatment. To help our guests, we do offer third-party financing through CareCredit with very reasonable terms.
