What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a small post that replaces a missing tooth root. Once placed in your jawbone, it fuses naturally with the bone to create a secure foundation for a crown, bridge, or denture. Unlike traditional dentures, implants prevent bone loss and preserve facial structure.
Types of Dental Implants
Single Dental Implants
Replace one missing tooth with a natural-looking, permanent restoration.
All-On-4 and Teeth-In-A-Day
Restore a full arch of teeth with just a few implants for same-day results.
Implant-Supported Dentures
Lock in place securely -- no adhesives or slipping. Materials used include titanium or zirconia, both biocompatible options.
How the Dental Implant Process Works
The process involves three key steps:
- Consultation -- We use advanced 3D imaging to plan each step of treatment precisely
- Implant Placement -- The implant is placed in your jawbone, where it fuses naturally with the bone
- Custom Restoration -- A custom restoration is attached for a seamless, natural-looking finish

Frequently Asked Questions
Am I a good candidate for dental implants?
Most adults with healthy gums and enough bone can receive implants. If bone loss is an issue, we can rebuild support with bone grafting.
How are implants different from dentures or bridges?
Implants are fixed in place and function like natural teeth. They are more stable than dentures and do not require modifying nearby teeth like bridges.
How long does treatment take?
Treatment time varies, but most cases take a few months from placement to final restoration. Some patients can receive same-day teeth with All-On-4.
Are dental implants safe?
Yes. Dental implants have a success rate of over 95% and are considered one of the safest, most predictable procedures in dentistry.
Will my implants look natural?
Absolutely. Each restoration is custom-crafted to match your natural teeth in shape, size, and color for a seamless, realistic result.
