TeethXpress® Dental Implants Maine


What Is TeethXpress?

Many people who are about to lose teeth, function or their smile don’t need to experience the debilitating function and psychological trauma from getting traditional dentures. As we know from TV commercials, dentures have difficulty staying in place. However they also only function at about 20% of natural teeth and cause the jawbone to resorb indefinitely. TeethXpress is an immediate replacement option for a full-arch of teeth that are fixed in place and prevents the need for a full denture.

Dr. James Oshetski is the only a certified provider of TeethXpress in Maine and leads New England in experience and expertise. He does the procedure all in-house and is 1 of 200 dentists that perform this advanced procedure.

Candidate For TeethXpress Dental Implants

If you are missing one or more teeth due to decay, injury or disease, you may be a candidate for TeethXpress. Every patient is different and patient results may vary. Only a trained clinician can choose the best treatment plan for you. Please set up your consultation with Dr. Oshetski, a Certified TeethXpress Implant Surgeon, to explain the benefits and risks to determine if the TeethXpress solution is right for you.


How is the TeethXpress Procedure Performed?

After you have met with Dr. Oshetski, a Board-Certified Implantologist and certified TeethXpress dentist, and created a personalized treatment plan, you will schedule the TeethXpress procedure. During the procedure, four to six dental implants are surgically placed into your jaw with abutment posts. Your denture is then secured to the abutment posts with special prosthetic screws.

The TeethXpress procedure typically can be completed in one day and can be done under local anesthesia. Your dentist will either use your existing denture or have a denture created prior to the procedure so that you walk out that day with teeth. Discomfort from TeethXpress is usually minor and temporary. Your dentist may prescribe pain relievers for you as needed. A soft diet will be required during the initial healing phase.

What is the Recovery from a TeethXpress Recovery Procedure?

After the TeethXpress procedure, the use of a medicated mouth wash is often recommended for two weeks. You will not brush or use a water pick during that time. After two weeks, you can start using a water pick on a slow speed. Follow your doctor’s instructions and maintain your dental hygiene to ensure the long-term success of your treatment.


Why Are TeethXpress Implants Unique?

The TeethXpress protocol utilizes the strength of multiple implants in the bone to replace a full set of missing teeth. These replacement teeth are removable by your dentist but screw in permanently to the implants in your mouth. Patients are instructed how to maintain gum health and clean under the teeth. The replacement teeth are typically attached to the implants the same day the teeth are extracted and dental implants are placed if the conditions are ideal. TeethXpress can only be provided by trained clinicians licensed in the procedure and Dr. Oshetski is the only licensed Maine provider.

When Will I Receive My TeethXpress Dental Implants?

TeethXpress is designed as an immediate solution so that it is possible for you to walk out the same day with secure natural-looking teeth on your implants. Situations may occur that require your dentist to delay securing your new teeth to the implants, but you will always leave with teeth.

Caring For Your Teeth After TeethXpress

Initially, you will only use a medicated mouth rinse prescribed by your TeethXpress dentist. Once your mouth is healed, you will use a water pick to clean around the implants and under the secured teeth. You will also schedule regular follow up visits with your TeethXpress dentist for cleanings.
