The Perfect Solution For Missing Teeth

Living with missing teeth is embarrassing. It can lower your self-esteem, damage your self-confidence, and prevent you from smiling in even the happiest situations.



Dr. Maggie Aleksanyan at Designer Smiles of Colorado wants everyone to feel good about their smile. That’s why she offers dental implants — natural-looking prosthetic teeth that are surgically installed into your jaw. They stay firmly in place, allowing you to really enjoy eating again.

What’s a Dental Implant?

A dental implant is an advanced restorative treatment that Dr. Maggie uses to replace one tooth, multiple teeth, or even a whole arch. This form of treatment is the only tooth replacement option that counteracts the negative effects of tooth loss.


For example, as soon as your tooth falls out, your jawbone loses the healthy stimulation that occurs every time you chew. When this happens, the bone around the empty socket begins to degrade, and that part of the jaw weakens. Dental implants protect your smile by encouraging healthy jawbone growth.

Who Should Place Your Dental Implants

While a lot of dentists offer dental implants (the minimum requirement to place them is a weekend-long course), it takes a highly-trained dentist to produce reliable results. Fortunately, Dr. Maggie has advanced training from some of the most prestigious implant organizations, including the Midwest implant institute and Pikos Institute.


Dr. Maggie is also an Accredited Member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry. That means she can make your implants blend with the rest of your teeth so all people will notice is your stunning, natural-looking smile.

Our Implant Solutions

Dental implants are a versatile solution that Dr. Maggie can use to replace any number of missing teeth. If you’re looking for a treatment that’s trusted by over 500,000 Americans each year, then implants could be right for you too.

Single Tooth & Multiple Teeth

For patients who want to restore a single missing tooth, Dr. Maggie will fill the gap using a dental implant. If you have more than one tooth you want to restore, we feature additional implant options. If the missing teeth aren’t next to each other, she’ll restore them using more than one dental implants.


For patients whose missing teeth are adjacent, Dr. Maggie can replace them with an implant-retained bridge Dental Bridges. This restoration uses dental implants to support the dental bridge. Like all our implant-supported restorations, your dental bridge provides outstanding comfort and chewing power.

Full-Arch Restorations

Some of our patients want to replace a whole arch. Dentures are the most common full arch restoration, but they can be challenging. Although they’re very attractive, dentures often slip out of position when you’re eating or socializing, and this can be very embarrassing.


Dentures can also be painful or uncomfortable to wear. But now we have a better solution — implant-supported dentures.


Dr. Maggie can combine dentures with dental implants to create a comfortable, durable, and reliable solution. Implant-supported dentures give you the stability of implants with the convenience of dentures. Dr. Maggie offers All-on-4® or All-on-6® treatment, meaning she can secure a full denture using either four or six implants, depending on which treatment is best for you.

Same-Day Implant Solutions

Restoring your missing tooth with dental implants typically takes about six months to complete. However, Dr. Maggie offers same-day dental implants, allowing you to leave our office with a beautifully restored smile in just one appointment. During your consultation with Dr. Maggie, you can ask her if same-day dental implants are right for your smile.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Implants

  • How can dental implants help me?

    Dental implants are a permanent, natural-looking solution for missing teeth. They’re the only restoration that’s secured to your jaw and prevents jawbone deterioration. They’re also customized to look natural and can last a lifetime with proper care.

  • How long do dental implants last?

    Dental implants can last up to a lifetime with proper care. If you brush and floss regularly in addition to visiting your dentist for regular checkups, your implant may never need to be replaced.

  • Are dental implants painful?

    Dr. Aleksanyan will numb your teeth with a local anesthetic to ensure you don’t feel any pain during your surgery. You may experience some swelling and discomfort while you’re recovering, but this can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain medications. If you’re experiencing severe pain or excessive bleeding after implant surgery, call us right away.

  • Are dental implants safe?

    Yes! In fact, dental implants are the only restoration that prevents jawbone loss, making them the safest option for your long-term health. As long as your implant surgery is performed by a qualified and experienced dentist like Dr. Aleksanyan, there’s no reason for concern.

  • Does medicare or insurance cover the cost of dental implants?

    Unfortunately, most insurance providers classify dental implants as a cosmetic treatment and won’t cover them as a result. However, depending on your specific plan, you may be able to get coverage for part of your total treatment cost.
