More Information On Dental Implants From New Image Dentistry


At New Image Dentistry, we specialize in dental implants. We found this very informative web site for consumers about implants. Here's what they had to say!

Dental implants are stronger and more durable than their restorative counterparts (bridges and dentures). Implants offer a permanent solution to tooth loss. Additionally, implants may be used in conjunction with other restorative procedures for maximum effectiveness. For example, a single implant can serve to support a crown replacing a single missing tooth. Implants can also be used to support a dental bridge for the replacement of multiple missing teeth, and can be used with dentures to increase stability and reduce gum tissue irritation.

Procedural advancements, including the development of narrower “mini” implants, mean that more people than ever before are finding themselves candidates for implantation. However, candidacy for implantation still varies, meaning that your dentist may determine that you should opt for an alternative restoration. At New Image Dentistry, we do both phases of surgical and restorative implant dentistry, and having both done by the same clinician means the procedure is more convenient and successful!

We also use I-Cat 3d imaging which makes dental implant placement a safe and predictable procedure.

What to do if you have ill-fitting dentures? Dr. Blourchian Answers

At New Image Dentistry, we know that many denture wearers are unable to enjoy the simple pleasures of life that so many of us take for granted. Chewing becomes a difficult and frustrating experience. Diet will consist of mainly soft foods that lack nutrients and fiber. Loose or ill-fitting partials or dentures can also affect your general health.

Dental implants, offered for our Nashville and Franklin-area patients, can restore the quality of life for people who wear dentures. The boost in self-esteem and confidence that accompany a smile restored with dental implants can drastically improve the overall health of patients who previously suffered from loose or ill-fitting partials or dentures.

If you experience problems with your partials or dentures, implant dentistry may be the solution for you. Get in touch with New Image Dentistry in Franklin to schedule a consultation.

Dental implants are the best option for Nashville, Franklin, and Cool Springs-area residents who have a compromised or severely damaged tooth with a questionable future.

There are several benefits of implant dentistry including:

--Firm and stable teeth
--Prevents destructive bone loss caused by dentures
--More comfort and ease with chewing
--Improved appearance
--Helps maintain healthy adjacent teeth

Dental implants are an excellent option for patients who want to restore their smile. For more information about implant dentistry, contact the office of Dr. Blourchian in Franklin today.

New Image Dentistry And Their Fabulous Team!


Having started our New Image Dentistry Office about a year and half ago, I have a small, yet highly effective team. Our team consists of: Jennifer, the hygienist, Leslie, the dental assistant, and Diane, the patient care coordinator.

Jennifer has been with me for years, even before I started my new office. Last year she completed the local anesthesia training at UT Memphis. Now she gives most of the injections in our office. I am so glad to delegate this job!

Leslie and Diane joined our team last summer. My wife, Yasmin, does some part time hygiene work as well.

After being in the dental profession for 18 years, I can confidently say that I have never been as proud of my team as I am now. My team members are leaders in their own fields. I am confident that my patients are being taken care of in the best way, be it clinical or administrative. They are highly motivated professionals who strive each and every day to help our practice and patients. They frequently get compliments from our patients.

I depend on my team for their thoughts, inputs, and sometimes their criticism.

Dentistry has been very pleasurable (really!) to me all my career. Having this team on my side has made it even more fun!

Stop by New Image Dentistry for yourself to see what a great team we have!
