If you’ve suffered devastating dental trauma, or multiple tooth loss, you may feel there are no options but dentures. The social stigma of missing teeth is not a rare problem. In fact, over 30 million people struggle with this problem in the US alone. If you feel this is your situation and are considering dentures—STOP. There is a much better option, you don’t have to settle for a band-aid solution when there is a permanent one.
Dr. Nicole Mackie, founder of Nevada Dental Implant Specialists is the leading provider of dental implants in Las Vegas. Dental implants are the permanent solution to the temporary problem of tooth loss. While dentures merely mask the problem of missing teeth, dental implants correct it and seamlessly so.
Dr. Mackie uses the revolutionary All-On-Four / All-On-X dental implant method that can restore your smile in a single visit. Yes, just one visit—that means no more denture slippage, messy adhesive, speech issues, or missing on foods you love. With the All-On-Four / All-On-X procedure performed right here in our Las Vegas facility and our on-site lab, you can have a perfect smile by design.
All-On-Four / All-On-X is as personalized as dentistry can get—you literally get to design your own smile with Dr. Mackie. However, while dental implants in Las Vegas are restoring people’s smiles aesthetically, it also greatly improves their health. The replacement teeth we install never rot, so you will never deal with tooth decay. They will last a lifetime with continued proper oral hygiene—and that is an important point.
Just because your new teeth won’t rot, doesn’t mean you can slack on hygiene. You can still develop gum disease from residual bacteria buildup. All in all, you get a brand new smile that is unique to you and perfectly fit. You can’t get that with dentures and dentures can end up costing just as much as implants.
Dentures on average, need to be replaced every five years or so. This is because dentures don’t help the jawbone at all. When you lose teeth, the jawbone deteriorates over time causing facial distortion and changes in alignment. If you have dentures, this means every few years, you need to have dentures remade to adjust to structural changes.
The average cost of good dentures is anywhere from $4,000 to $5,000 dollars. Every five years you could be spending that to replace them. That adds up real quick—so why put yourself in that bind? What you really need is something permanent and All-On-Four / All-On-X is that solution.
Dr. Mackie has assembled a stellar team of patient-centric dental assistants, hygienists and front office staff. When you come to Nevada Dental Implant Specialists you are coming to a family, and you are treated as such. Dr. Mackie is the most experienced prosthodontist in Nevada and will get your smile exactly as you like it.

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email [email protected]
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers).
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs. There may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to [email protected]
