Replace Missing Teeth with Permanent Dental Implants
COMPLIMENTARY CONSULTATION AVAILABLE
Dental implants are the gold standard for replacing missing teeth. Unlike dentures or bridges, implants replace both the tooth and the root, providing a permanent, stable solution that looks, feels, and functions like a natural tooth.
What is a Dental Implant?
A dental implant consists of three parts:
Titanium Post: Surgically placed in the jawbone, acts as an artificial tooth root
Abutment: Connector piece that attaches to the post
Crown: Custom-made tooth restoration that sits on top
Why Choose Dental Implants?
Permanent Solution: With proper care, implants can last a lifetime
Natural Look & Feel: Indistinguishable from natural teeth
No Impact on Adjacent Teeth: Unlike bridges, neighboring teeth remain untouched
Restore Full Function: Eat, speak, and smile with confidence
No Slipping or Clicking: Unlike dentures, implants are fixed in place
Protect Facial Structure: Prevent the sunken appearance caused by missing teeth
High Success Rate: Over 95% success rate with proper care
Dr. Tirmizi’s Implant Expertise:
Dr. Tirmizi has completed over 10 specialized courses in implant treatment and planning, totaling more than 550 hours of continuing education. Her extensive training, combined with our state-of-the-art CBCT 3D imaging technology, allows for precise implant planning and placement.
Our CBCT scanner provides detailed 3D images of your jaw, enabling Dr. Tirmizi to:
Determine optimal implant size, position, and angle
Plan treatment with surgical precision
Minimize risk and maximize success rates
The Dental Implant Process:
Complimentary Consultation: Comprehensive evaluation including CBCT scan and treatment planning
Implant Placement: Titanium post is surgically placed in the jawbone (performed by Dr. Tirmizi or referred specialist)
Healing Period: 3-6 months for implant to fuse with bone (osseointegration)
Abutment Placement: Connector is attached to the implant
Crown Fabrication: Custom crown is created using our in-house 3D printer
Final Restoration: Crown is placed, completing your new tooth
Depending on your case, Dr. Tirmizi may perform the implant placement herself or refer you to a trusted oral surgeon. She remains involved throughout the entire process, coordinating care and fabricating the final restoration.
Who is a Candidate for Dental Implants?
Most adults with one or more missing teeth are candidates for dental implants. During your complimentary consultation, Dr. Tirmizi will evaluate:
Overall health and medical history
Bone density and volume
Gum health
Smoking status (affects success rate)
Oral hygiene habits
Even if you’ve been told you don’t have enough bone for implants, advances in bone grafting techniques may make implants possible. Schedule your complimentary consultation to explore your options.
A bright, white smile is one of the simplest and most effective ways to enhance your appearance. At Ashar Dentistry, we offer both take-home and in-office whitening options to give you the radiant smile you deserve.

Sometimes, achieving your dream smile requires more than one cosmetic procedure. A smile makeover combines multiple treatments—such as veneers, implants, whitening, and clear aligners—to address all aspects of your smile and create a complete transformation.
What’s Included in a Smile Makeover?
Every smile makeover is unique, customized to your goals, concerns, and facial features. Your makeover may include:
Teeth whitening or veneers for color correction
Dental implants or bridges to replace missing teeth
Clear aligners to straighten misaligned teeth
Gum recontouring for a more balanced smile
Crown and bridge work to restore damaged teeth
Composite bonding for minor shape corrections
The Smile Makeover Process:
Comprehensive Consultation: Dr. Tirmizi listens to your concerns, goals, and vision
Smile Analysis: Detailed evaluation of teeth, gums, bite, and facial proportions
Digital Smile Design: Preview your future smile with computer imaging (when applicable)
Treatment Planning: Create a step-by-step plan with timeline and cost estimates
