in Dentures
A Dentist Other Dentists Learn From
Dr. Slaman serves as a mentor at Spear Education in Scottsdale, where dentists from around the world train in advanced restorative care. He also continues to take classes himself. Each new course expands what he can offer his patients and ensures his denture techniques and materials are cutting-edge.
Advanced Technology
Dr. Slaman's advanced technology allows him to achieve excellent precision when creating dentures that can give you a confident smile and functional bite. Using digital X-rays, cone-beam 3D imaging, and computer-aided design, Dr. Slaman maps your mouth in precise detail for a denture that's comfortable and stable.
Complete Implant Skills
If you want the added security and health benefits of implant-supported dentures, our dentist in Albuquerque, NM, has the specialized training necessary for implant dentistry. Pairing his training with state-of-the-art technology allows Dr. Slaman to design implant-supported dentures that are long-lasting and lifelike.
Implant-Supported Dentures
Are a Life-Changing Choice
From security to confidence, implant-supported dentures have many advantages over traditional dentures. Dr. Slaman will help you make the best choice for your needs.
Your Comfort Is Our Priority
For Dr. Slaman, being "average" just isn't good enough. He and his Albuquerque team aim to keep you relaxed with:
Luxury Amenities
We aim to put you at ease from the moment you step into our Albuquerque dental office. The reception area is styled like a living room and we offer hot tea, coffee, and refreshing filtered water to sip while you unwind. In the treatment rooms, you can settle in under a warm, comfortable blanket and don a pair of noise-canceling headphones.
Comfortable Anesthesia
Even patients who aren't anxious about the dentist often dread the needle. That's why Dr. Slaman uses The Wand®, which delivers a computer-regulated flow of anesthetic that's virtually painless.
Stress-Free Sedation
Dr. Slaman is known for being a gentle and extremely skilled dentist. However, if you are nervous, Dr. Slaman offers oral conscious sedation so that you can sit back and relax in the dental chair. Some patients are so calm that they fall asleep or simply don't remember much about the procedure afterward.
Dr. Slaman is affiliated with respected organizations in general, cosmetic, and implant dentistry.
Modern Denture Choices
Dr. Slaman is one of the most experienced and educated dentists in Albuquerque, NM, and offers a variety of options to overcome the problems of missing teeth.
Am I a Good Candidate for
Implant-Supported Dentures?
Yes, If You Have Healthy Gums
To stay in place, implants fuse with your jaw in a process called osseointegration. If you have unhealthy gums, you'll likely need periodontal care first, which we offer. Once you've been treated, we can then explore implants.
Yes, If You Have Enough Bone
Losing teeth often leads to bone loss. For patients without enough bone tissue, we offer sinus grafts and bone grafts. We also offer All-on-4® implants and dentures, which need less bone tissue.
Yes, Even If Your Teeth Are Damaged
Severely broken or decayed teeth don't rule you out. If they can't be saved, Dr. Slaman can extract them and prepare your mouth for implant-supported or traditional dentures.
Call Us for a Denture Consultation
Dr. Slaman, a three-time recipient of Albuquerque The Magazine's "Top Cosmetic Dentist" award, is highly respected in Albuquerque for his restoration work. Dr. Slaman is also a member of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry and has been a trusted dental care provider since 1992. He continues to bring the latest in dental techniques to Albuquerque dental patients through continuing education, and he shares his knowledge as a mentor at Spear Education in Scottsdale, which has helped train practitioners throughout the world.
Can Insurance Help With the Cost of My Dentures?
The answer depends on your plan, type of denture, and specific treatment needs. We can discuss all of these during your consultation.
Generally speaking, most plans cover part of the cost of the denture itself. Implants are not always covered.
How Can I Pay for My New Dentures?
For costs that insurance doesn't cover, like implants or sedation, you have several options:
Cash or Card
Our Albuquerque team accepts cash and most major credit cards. Whether you want to use them to pay partially or in full, we're happy to help you find a course of payment that works best for your needs.
Payment Plans
If you are having difficulty fitting dentures into your budget, call our practice in Albuquerque. Our knowledgeable staff can work with you to create a payment plan that fits your individual financial needs.
Dental Financing
Patients can also take advantage of flexible financing through CareCredit®. This lender offers different plans, so you can pay for your new dentures in more manageable monthly installments.
