Contact UsWhat are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are an exciting advancement in dentistry that make tooth replacement more attainable than ever! Using dental implants, we can change our patients' lives by providing the look and feel of natural teeth with an extraordinary rate of success.
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots that provide a permanent base for customized replacement teeth. Compared to dentures, bridges, and crowns, dental implants are a popular and effective long-term solution for people who suffer from missing teeth, failing teeth, or chronic dental problems. Because they fit, feel, and function like natural teeth, dental implants are quickly becoming a new standard in tooth replacement.

What Makes Dental Implants Feel Comfortable and Secure?
Doctors use a medical-grade titanium implant fixture that, over time, actually fuses to the living bone cells of the jaw. This union forms a strong and durable anchor for your new teeth, meaning there’s no misalignment or other movement (which can sometimes happen with dentures). There are also no problems eating with dental implants, no need to repair them regularly, and you no longer have to worry about smiling freely and openly.
Dental Implants Typically Have Three Parts
- Implant: A screw that permanently attaches to your jaw and serves as a root for your new teeth
- Abutment: A permanent, but removable by your doctor, connector that supports and holds a tooth or set of teeth
- Crown, or prosthetic tooth: This is the part of the tooth that you can see, and it’s usually made of zirconium or porcelain for durability and aesthetic appeal
You can use dental implants to replace a single tooth, multiple teeth, or a full upper and/or lower set of teeth. If you need to restore a full arch, you may be a great candidate for the full mouth treatment. Surgeons will place four implants and then attach a full arch of teeth, giving the procedure its name (all teeth, only four implants).
If you are missing teeth and looking for tooth replacement options, contact Bright Young Smiles in Lighthouse Point, FL for a consult to see if dental implants are right for you!
Bright Young Smiles Reviews
A big shout out to the staff at bright young smiles. I woke up in pain and I had not been to their office in 7 years, but they got me in same day. Dr. Gaffney was amazing. He referred me to the best Endodontics office in Boca. I will always use Bright Young Smile for the rest of my life. Thank you
Great office, great dentists!!! My whole family goes here and have been for a long time and have referred many people. Dr. Gaffney is gentle & kind, with a great personality. Always makes me feel comfortable and at ease. One of the best things about this office is when you need them, they find time to take care of you. They make you feel like you matter. Very refreshing feeling!

Going to the dentist has been something I try to put off in the past. However, whenever I come to Bright Young Smiles I can stay there for hours— literally! Dr. Catherine Young and her assistant Rose spent several hours on my latest dental work, filling in cavities and adding bonding. I couldn’t be happier with the results, I feel so much better about my smile now! They made the whole experience extremely comfortable for me, offering a blanket and letting me catch up on my latest Netflix show. They utilize the latest tech gadgets on the market for dentistry so you don’t feel like all these crazy tools are in your mouth. Which in my opinion usually tends to feel uncomfortable hence why I’ve avoided the dentist in the past. Dr. Catherine Young also focuses on cosmetic dentistry and was able to help correct the balance of my smile via lip fillers. She has an artistic eye and takes the time to really focus and perfect where she is injecting in order to make your smile perfectly balanced. I’ve had filler in the past and usually it’s a quick appointment where I felt that they didn’t take the time to consider the structure of my face. Dr. Young was the complete opposite and was so gentle whenever she would inject. Would highly recommend this procedure to be done if you want the perfect smile!
When my friend recommended Bright Young Smiles I never in a million years expected to have the experience My son and I had with them. Dr. Catherine Young has not only helped me with my TMJ problems but I swear to you she has a halo on her head. She is not just really good at what she does but she is so compassionate and kind and held my hand while I was going through a difficult time. Its not hard to see why everyone in her staff is happy in the office. Everyone is very friendly and want to make you feel very comfortable while you’re there. My whole family will start going there now. :)
