What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants give you the chance to replace one or more missing teeth with a lasting restoration. A dental implant is a 3-part tooth replacement that not only replaces the tooth, but also the root of the tooth. The abutment, post and dental crown work together to provide a tooth replacement that can last for many years!

The Implant Process

From start to finish, the implant process is designed to provide you with a state-of-the-art solution for your smile. From bone grafting to the placement of the dental crown, our team will be with you every step of the way as you work towards a beautiful, more confident smile!

Bone Grafting

Bone grafting is the first step in the implant process when a patient does not have sufficient bone support. Bone grafting provides the jaw bone with the additional support it needs in order for the implant to be placed.

Implant Placement

The second step is placing the implant, the foundation of the tooth restoration. This is the part that is placed in the jaw bone, providing a secure location to later attach the abutment and dental crown.

Healing Time

Once the implant has been placed, the jaw needs sufficient time to heal before moving on to step four. This healing time can vary from patient to patient and is necessary to guarantee a successful implant placement.

Abutment Placement

The abutment is placed onto the dental implant, providing the final step before the dental crown is secured. This abutment acts are a resting place for the custom-made dental crown.

Restore Smile

A dental crown is carefully designed to fit like a natural tooth and blend in naturally with your smile. This dental crown is placed onto the abutment and tested for proper bite and function, providing the finishing step in the implant process.

Why Dental Implants?

Dental implants provide many benefits for restoring your smile. This restoration process is uniquely designed to give you everything you need for replacing your missing teeth. Whether you are missing one or several teeth, implants could give you back your smile!

How Much Do Dental Implants Cost?

Because the dental implant process looks different for every patient, the cost for dental implants is not a set price. This is because bone grafting and other factors can add to or take away from the total cost. A consultation with our team can provide you with a detailed plan of your personalized implant placement and help you understand the exact cost of your tooth restoration.
