How much do dental implants cost in West Orange, NJ?

How long does it take to recover from a dental implant?

Most patients return to work or normal activities the next day with little to no discomfort. Full bone integration around the implant typically takes three to six months before the final crown is attached.

Is dental implant surgery painful?

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, and most patients report only mild soreness afterward, comparable to a tooth extraction.

How long do dental implants last?

With proper oral hygiene and regular checkups, dental implants can last 20+ years or a lifetime, making them a more permanent solution than bridges or dentures.

What makes guided implant surgery different from traditional implants?

Dr. Feldman uses 3D imaging and in-house surgical guide printing to plan implant placement down to the millimeter before surgery begins, which improves accuracy and safety compared to traditional freehand methods.

What is same-day dentistry?

Same-day dentistry uses digital scanning and in-office milling technology to design, fabricate, and place a permanent restoration — like a crown, veneer, or inlay/onlay — in a single visit, eliminating the need for temporary restorations or a second appointment.

How does same-day dentistry work?

We use a Shining 3D Aoralscan intraoral scanner to capture a precise digital model of your teeth without messy impressions, then mill your custom ceramic restoration in-house using a Planmeca milling unit while you wait.

Do I need a temporary crown with same-day dentistry?

No. Because your final restoration is designed, milled, and stained to match your natural teeth all in one visit, there’s no need for a temporary crown or a follow-up appointment to place the permanent one.

Can same-day technology be used for more than crowns?

Yes. In addition to crowns, veneers, inlays, and onlays, Dr. Feldman uses in-office 3D printing (Formlabs and SprintRay) to create surgical guides, night guards, retainers, custom trays, and provisionals.
