Defining a Family Dentist

Family dentistry, like general dentistry, provides services related to the general maintenance of oral hygiene and tooth health. Family dentists are responsible for ensuring that plaque buildup around the teeth is kept to a minimum, that tooth decay is eliminated, that cavities are filled, and that gums remain healthy. The Oyster Bay Family Dentists accept patients of all ages, making our family dentistry office a convenient choice if you have children or seniors in your home.

The Oyster Bay Family Dentists offer a full range of procedures to restore and maintain your oral health and to keep your teeth looking their best. We provide routine care, fillings and other services for adults and seniors. In addition to general dental care, we offer dental implants, orthodontic care with Invisalign, endodontic, restorative dentistry and cosmetic dentistry.

Lower Jaw Mini Implants and Lower Denture

Lower Jaw Mini Implants and Lower Denture

In the past, one of the most common issues concerning both full and partial dentures was stability. Thankfully, there is a solution that many of our Oyster Bay Family Dentists patients have come to rely upon.  Lower jaw mini implants can be used to support and stabilize both full and partial lower dentures.

Mini implants root the lower denture securely to the jaw, preventing slipping and shifting. Since mini implants are used in this procedure, they are non-invasive to implant, heal quickly and remain strong-- even for patients with thin or narrow jawbones.

While mini implant supported dentures are versatile and have helped many of our patients, they may not be right for everyone.  To determine if they’ll be your best prosthetic option, please contact us directly at Oyster Bay Family Dentists.
