Dental implants
A dental implant is a titanium root that fuses with your bone — the closest thing to a natural tooth. We plan every step with 3D imaging so the result feels right and lasts decades.
- 3D-guided placement — precise & gentle
- Stable, bone-preserving solution
- Looks, feels and chews like a real tooth
- Lifetime success rate ≥ 95% with good care
What to expect
- 1
3D consult
A CBCT scan shows the bone in 3D so we can plan the exact angle and size.
- 2
Implant placement
Under local anesthesia, the titanium implant is placed using a surgical guide. Usually 45–60 minutes.
- 3
Healing
Bone integrates with the implant over 3–4 months. You wear a temporary tooth during that time.
- 4
Final crown
Once integrated, a custom crown is screw-retained or cemented onto the implant.
Is this right for you?
If two or more of these sound familiar, you're a likely candidate. A free consultation tells us for sure.
- You're missing one or more teeth and want a permanent fix
- Your denture or partial slips and you want it locked in place
- You've been told a bridge would damage healthy neighbor teeth
- You're losing bone where a tooth used to be
- You want to chew, smile and speak without thinking about it
How it compares
A quick side-by-side so you can see where this option fits.
| Implant | Bridge | Removable partial | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lasts | 20+ years | 10–15 years | 5–8 years |
| Neighbor teeth | Untouched | Shaped down | Untouched |
| Preserves bone | Yes | No | No |
| Feels like a tooth | Closest | Close | Removable |
Cost & insurance
Implants are a multi-stage investment. Some PPO insurances cover the crown portion; we offer in-house financing so the cost is broken into monthly steps.
Frequently asked
01Am I a candidate?
Most adults are. Smokers, uncontrolled diabetes and severe bone loss need extra planning. We use a 3D scan to confirm.
02Does it hurt?
Most patients say it was easier than a tooth extraction. Mild swelling for 2–3 days is the most common recovery.
03What if I have no teeth at all?
We can do all-on-4 or all-on-6 — a full arch on 4–6 implants. A 3D consult tells us which approach fits your bone.
