Dental Implants in Stevensville, MD

Ready to Replace Your Missing Teeth for Good?

Dental implants are the most durable and natural-feeling tooth replacement option available, and at Anchor Periodontics, Dr. Elizabeth Polak performs the full implant process in one trusted setting. Implants are surgically placed posts that fuse to the jawbone, creating a permanent foundation for a crown, bridge, or full-arch restoration. Whether you are missing one tooth or considering a complete smile transformation, Dr. Polak will build a customized implant plan around your anatomy, your timeline, and your goals.

Dental implant procedure planning for replacement teeth
Single Tooth Implants
For patients missing one tooth, a single implant and crown restores full function and appearance without affecting the adjacent teeth. Dr. Polak places implants with surgical precision and coordinates with your restorative dentist to complete the process seamlessly, producing a result that looks and feels completely natural.
Implant-Supported Bridges
Replacing several adjacent missing teeth with implant-supported bridgework eliminates the need to alter healthy neighboring teeth the way a traditional bridge requires. Dr. Polak designs implant bridge placements that distribute force evenly and create a stable, natural result built to last for decades.
Full-Arch Restoration
Patients who have lost most or all of their teeth may be excellent candidates for full-arch implant restoration. Dr. Polak evaluates your bone volume, health history, and goals to determine whether fixed or removable implant-supported prosthetics are the right fit, building a comprehensive plan tailored to your anatomy and lifestyle.
Bone Grafting
Adequate bone volume is essential for successful implant placement. When bone loss has occurred due to gum disease, tooth extraction, or injury, Dr. Polak performs bone grafting procedures to rebuild the site and create the solid foundation your implant needs for long-term stability.
Sinus Lift
Upper jaw implants sometimes require a sinus lift to create enough vertical space for proper implant placement. Dr. Polak performs this procedure with careful planning and advanced imaging to ensure optimal outcomes with minimal disruption to your recovery and timeline.

Your Periodontal Care is as Individual as You Are

No two treatment plans look the same. Dr. Polak takes the time to fully evaluate your gum health, your history, and your goals before recommending a path forward. You get thoughtful, personalized care designed around your needs, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
