Los Angeles Periodontist, Dr. Sam S. Markzar, Offers Complimentary Second Opinion for Dental Implants

BEVERLY HILLS, CA, May 08, 2013

Los Angeles periodontist, Dr. Sam Markzar, provides free second opinion consultations for patients who are considering dental implants. The placement of dental implants is process that offers many benefits for some patients, but because the procedure can be time consuming and costly, it is important to be informed about the options before the patient commits.

Dental implants consist of two main parts: the titanium or titanium alloy rod and the crown. The rod is implanted into the jaw, where the bone will fuse with the rod, forming a secure bond with the implant. Once the bone has healed, a process that typically takes three to six weeks, Dr. Markzar, Los Angeles dental implants dentist, restores the implant with a dental crown. This crown is specially designed to look and feel just like the patient's natural teeth.

In some cases, however, the patient may not be ideally suited for dental implants. Some patients do not have sufficient jaw bone, which will require a bone graft before an implant can be placed. While many patients still decide to get the implant despite the need for a bone graft, the success rate of the procedure may be reduced. Children, patients with periodontal disease, patients with certain other health conditions such as diabetes, and smokers may also not be ideal candidates for dental implants. As a result, it is important to get a second opinion from Dr. Markzar, periodontist in Beverly Hills, to make sure that a dental implant is the right solution for the patient's needs.

Dr. Sam Markzar specializes in both placing and restoring dental implants. Few area dentists have such thorough knowledge of dental implants, and as a result, Dr. Markzar can offer unique insights into the process and a patient's individual case.
