Comprehensive Denture & Implant Services
Dentures
Dentures are prosthetic devices constructed to place missing teeth, and which are supported by surrounding soft and hard tissues of the oral cavity. Conventional dentures are removable. However, there are many different denture designs, some of which rely on bonding or clasping onto teeth or dental implants. There are two main categories of dentures, depending on whether they are sued to replace missing teeth on the mandibular arch or the maxillary arch. Dr. Babik will make a recommendation for you, and he will proceed only when you are in full agreement with the procedure.
Dental Implants
Tooth loss is something no one looks forward to. If you lose one or more teeth, you have a number of options, one of which is dental implants. Treatment options with dental implants is always patient specific. You owe it to yourself to be informed as possible about these options.

Are you a candidate for dental implants?

- Implants are sometimes a welcome alternative to removable bridges or dentures.
- For some people, there are varying degrees of discomfort or pain, which subsides in a couple of days.

Cutting Edge Technology: CBCT Scan
Before a dental implant procedure is performed, there’s extensive planning that takes place. Part of this planning process is getting x-rays in order to properly identify the implant site.
The problem with using this traditional imaging method is that it visualizes a 3D object in only 2 dimensions, missing critical information as a result.
In our offices, we use the most advanced technology on the market to create a 3D visualization of your teeth, jaw, and bone structure. It entails a CBCT scan (Cone-Beam Computed Tomography), equipment utilized by less than 1% of dentists.
In fact, many dental implant specialists around the state send their patients to our office specifically for this imaging technology.
He and the entire office are phenomenal. It is a family run business. He treats 3 generations of my family; kids, parents and grandparents. I highly recommend Dr. Babik and all clinicians at his practice.

Dr. Babik is a phenomenal dental professional. I chipped a tooth late Friday night and called his office and left a message about my dilemma and not only did he call me back but he and a staff met me in the office on a Saturday morning to repair my tooth so I could complete my speaking engagement on Sunday morning. His office staff especially his sister and brother enhance their office operations beyond the realms of greatness. Dr. Babik has an incredible chair side manner that puts the most anxious patient at ease.
