Do you offer same-day emergency dental appointments?

Yes. We provide same-day emergency care for toothaches, infections, broken teeth, swelling, or urgent issues. We are also available 7 days a week for dental emergencies. Call our office right away for assistance.

What services are included in preventive dental care?

Preventive care includes routine cleanings, exams, digital X-rays, fluoride treatments, oral health education, gum disease screening, and pediatric visits. These services help prevent cavities, gum issues, and long-term dental complications.

What cosmetic dental treatments do you offer?

We offer whitening, composite veneers, bonding, smile makeovers, and clear aligners (Invisalign & Spark). Dr. Sheth uses advanced training and artistic skill to create natural, beautiful, confidence-boosting results.

How do composite veneers differ from porcelain veneers?

Composite veneers are placed in a single visit, are more affordable, and require minimal tooth preparation. Porcelain veneers last longer and resist staining but require multiple visits. Dr. Sheth will help determine the best option for your goals.

Are clear aligners a good option for adults?

Absolutely. Invisalign and Spark Aligners are excellent for adults seeking a discreet, comfortable way to straighten their teeth. They can correct crowding, gaps, bite issues, and mild-to-moderate misalignment.

What should I expect during a root canal?

Root canals relieve pain by removing infection inside the tooth. With modern techniques and Dr. Sheth’s gentle approach, most patients report the procedure feels similar to getting a filling — and relief is immediate.

How long do crowns and fillings last?

Tooth-colored fillings can last 7–10 years, while custom dental crowns can last 10–15+ years with proper care. Regular cleanings, good oral hygiene, and avoiding hard chewing help extend their lifespan.

Am I a candidate for dental implants?

You may be a good candidate if you have one or more missing teeth, healthy gums, and sufficient bone structure. Implants are the most natural, durable replacement option. We coordinate implant placement and provide custom crowns for beautiful results.

What services do you provide for children?

We offer gentle pediatric cleanings, exams, cavity prevention, fluoride treatments, X-rays, fillings, growth monitoring, and education to help kids build strong oral habits. Our office is warm, friendly, and designed to ease dental anxiety.

Do you offer options for replacing multiple missing teeth?

Yes. We provide partial dentures, full dentures, implant-supported dentures, and bridges. Dr. Sheth will review your goals and determine which option offers the best comfort, function, and esthetics.

Permanent Tooth Replacement Solutions

Dental Implants in Colchester, CT

Missing teeth can affect your confidence, oral health, and daily comfort — but dental implants offer a permanent, natural-looking solution. At Colchester Family Dental, we provide high-quality implant restorations designed to rebuild your smile with strength, stability, and beauty. Dental implants function like natural teeth, allowing you to speak, chew, and smile with complete confidence.

Dr. Radhee Sheth works closely with trusted oral surgeons and specialists for precise implant placement, then completes your restoration in-office with custom crowns designed to match your natural teeth perfectly.

What Are Dental Implants?

A dental implant is a small titanium post placed into the jawbone to replace a missing tooth root. Once healed, the implant is topped with a customized dental crown, bridge, or denture attachment.

Implants are considered the gold standard for tooth replacement because they:

Look and feel like natural teeth

Preserve bone structure and prevent bone loss

Support facial shape and aesthetics

Do not rely on adjacent teeth for support

Offer decades of stability with proper care

Benefits of Dental Implants

A Natural Look and Feel

Implants restore your smile with replacement teeth that blend seamlessly with your natural tooth color, shape, and bite.

Long-Lasting Durability

Made from biocompatible materials, implants can last 20+ years or even a lifetime.

Improved Chewing & Function

Unlike dentures, implants stay firmly in place and allow you to eat comfortably without slipping.

Protects Bone Health

When a tooth is lost, bone in that area begins to shrink. Implants stimulate the bone, preventing long-term deterioration.

Boosted Confidence

Patients love the stability and beauty of implants — no shifting, no discomfort, no embarrassment.

Our Dental Implant Services

Single-Tooth Implants

Perfect for replacing one missing tooth with a crown that blends naturally into your smile.

Implant-Supported Bridges

A strong, stable solution for replacing a small section of missing teeth without relying on natural teeth for support.

Implant-Crown Restorations

Who Is a Candidate for Dental Implants?

Most patients with healthy gums and adequate bone density are excellent candidates for implants. Ideal candidates:

Have one or more missing teeth

Want a long-lasting replacement

Are seeking an alternative to dentures

Have good oral hygiene habits

Are non-smokers or willing to reduce smoking

If needed, bone grafting or preparatory treatments can help improve candidacy.

The Dental Implant Process

1. Consultation & Evaluation

We assess your bone health, bite, and oral wellness to determine the best implant solution for you.

2. Implant Placement

A trusted implant specialist places the implant into the jawbone for optimal stability.

3. Healing Period

Over several months, the implant fuses with the bone through osseointegration.

4. Custom Restoration

Dr. Sheth designs and places your permanent crown, bridge, or attachment for a seamless result.

How Long Do Dental Implants Last?

With proper care — including routine cleanings, daily brushing and flossing, and a healthy lifestyle — dental implants can last 20 years or longer, often a lifetime.
