Dental Implants Are the Contemporary
Full-arch Replacement Solution

“With implant retained prosthesis (dentures) there is no movement to the denture because the teeth are anchored to the jawbone. It’s not uncommon that when we deliver the implant retained-restorations to the patient, the first thing they say is that they can taste food again and also they can eat what they want.”

Richard Steinberg, DDS

For many patients missing teeth in a full arch, traditional dentures have long been the most convenient and cost-effective solution to restore a portion of original chewing power, smile aesthetics, and self-confidence. Ordinary dentures, however, are not the most ideal long-term solution to missing teeth and pose a few issues when worn over a longer period of time. For patients who may already be discovering these issues, such as their denture’s instability, we offer multiple permanent full-arch solutions stabilized with contemporarydental implants.

The Confidence of a New Smile

Many patients choose implant-supported dentures for their stability and aesthetic benefits. Missing teeth do not provide the jaw bone with the necessary stimulation needed to maintain proper volume. Dental implants, the most ideal solution for tooth loss, mimic how a tooth root functions while supporting a natural-looking crown.

Dentures that are supported by dental implants no longer rest or rub on the gum line, shift or click, or need to be secured with messy pastes or gels. Whether permanent or able to “snap” on and off, implant-supported dentures give patients the strength and stability needed to feel confident and comfortable in their new smile.

Hybrid®—Improve More Than Your Smile

We provide Hybrid dental implantsand implant-supported dentures for patients with multiple missing teeth or a full arch of missing teeth. Both of these innovative solutions work to stabilize dentures while also helping to keep the jaw bone healthy and stimulated. With implant-supported alternatives to traditional dentures, you no longer need to feel the embarrassment of loose teeth, denture discomfort, and difficulty eating or speaking. The most common benefits of implant-supported dentures include:

Frequently Asked Questions

Discover the key differences between dental implants and dentures with our comprehensive FAQs. Uncover the pros and cons, costs, and maintenance tips to make an informed decision for your optimal oral health and confidence.
What are dental implants?
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to replace missing tooth roots. They act as sturdy foundations for artificial teeth.
Dentures are removable prosthetic devices used to replace missing teeth. They come in partial or full sets and sit atop the gums.
The choice depends on individual needs. Implants offer stability and mimic natural teeth, while dentures are more affordable and removable.
Implants fuse with the jawbone, providing long-term stability. With proper care, they can last a lifetime.
Dentures typically last 5-10 years, but they may need adjustments or replacements due to wear.
Implants need regular brushing, flossing, and dental visits, similar to natural teeth.
Initially, dentures may feel uncomfortable but adjustments can improve their fit.
Yes, implants can replace multiple teeth individually or support bridges and full arches.
Dental implants closely resemble natural teeth in look and feel, providing better comfort and functionality.
Dental implants often have a higher initial cost but can be more cost-effective long-term due to their durability and reduced maintenance compared to dentures.

I moved to this area several years ago, I have been to several dentist and have not been happy with the dentist or the office staff. A few months ago I attended a free seminar at NRD and I was so impressed with everything I saw. The dentist and staff were very knowledgeable and welcoming. I set up a follow up appointment for a consultation. I finally found a dentist office that I am totally comfortable with. Dr. Steinberg has been great and his assistant Bobble Jo is the best. She explained everything she was going to do and made me feel comfortable. I did not feel anxious like I usually do. Thank you to all the doctors and staff you are all great!!

We moved to Florida several years ago and found North River Dental through a friend’s recommendation. We wanted a private practice with personal attention to our dental needs. We have been extremely happy with their services. The staff is always welcoming and efficient. Their friendliness and smiles always put you at ease before the upcoming treatments. My dental hygienist is gentle and thorough. I could not be happier with the results when she is finished! All the dentists have been great to deal with as well. We have recommended the practice to others and will continue to do so!

North River Dental is the best Dental office I have ever used. Starting with the moment you walk in the door Delia greets you by name and the entire staff treats you with a professional and personable attitude making you feel like family. The facility is very well kept and they utilize state of the art technology. The dental treatment and planning is excellent but what I personally feel makes them stand out is how you are treated by the entire staff. It is very refreshing in this day and age to be greeted with a smile and treated as an individual with individual needs as North River Dental does with every patient.

I am 18 years old, almost 19, I’ve been going here since I was in a car seat. They have the most welcoming staff ever and their schedule is very flexible to fit you in, if needed. I got My teeth cleaned last week And I recently just found I was having a baby, my dentist told me that I would be having a girl and that is to be determined, but definitely made me feel very comfortable while she shared her journey about her baby girl. Great staff 10/10 recommend!!:)

It is very rare that I find dental workers who are patient enough with me that I feel comfortable, yet I felt so comfortable here that I was able to cry (twice) in front of these people. I didn’t mean to (obviously), but it really goes to show the people here are so kind, caring, patient & understanding that they will do whatever is in their power to help. I have a maloclusion that makes me look like a monster & could really use dental implants to stop my jaw from shifting further backwards & my teeth from shifting further on top of each other, but cannot afford them. I was able to get xrays & a consult here, so I could get an idea of what needed to he done & what I could try to save for if I ever became financially stable. I was also able to get hope that I could one day look “normal” without having to have surgery to break my jaw & reset it. I may just need braces. I doubt I could ever afford them, but the news has set my hopes ablaze as that is MUCH more attainable than a major surgery & now I won’t stop trying! But I was *TERRIFIED* walking in. As in, *shaking* terrified. Which is normal for me & dentists. And yet… the way I was treated here made me feel safe. It made me feel cared about. It made me feel like I was okay. I gradually stopped shaking. I gradually stopped feeling so terrified. And I have genuinely wished I had the $ or insurance to return for literally anything dental related, as it is almost *impossible* for me to find a dental facility where I feel that way. From the front desk to the techs to getting the xrays done to the dentist & even in the office of the person who helps you figure out the brutal reality of the finances, *every* *single* *person* in that office was the most kind, patient, respectful, caring, gentle & genuine human being I could ever hope to encounter. If you need patience & a dental place that will actually care about you as a human being… this is your haven. Please consider them. Please give them a try. I really never thought I’d find another place that would treat me so well after I moved away from New Orleans and into a smaller area like this until I got the privilege of going to North River Dental. I wish I could truly convey how much it means to me that they took the time & put in the energy to help me relax because I really don’t have the words. I hope someone from that day sees this & maybe remembers me, even if it was a while ago. Thank you. It really makes a difference. 🩵
