What is a Dental Implant?
Dental implants are small, titanium posts that we place below the gum line to restore the root structure of one or more missing teeth. Depending on the restoration needed, we can place anywhere from one to eight implants along an arch. Due to their biocompatible nature, they’re able to naturally fuse with the jawbone through a process called osseointegration. This creates a strong and stable foundation for a dental bridge, crown, or denture.
Benefits of Dental implants
Dental implants offer several advantages that make them stand apart from traditional restorations. Some of these include:
- They provide the jawbone with blood flow and stimulation, preventing deterioration.
- Preservation of the facial structure.
- A natural look and feel.
- No need for denture adhesive or worrying about slipping and shifting restorations.
- Easy maintenance, just like natural teeth.
- Lifespan of 35+ years.
- 95 percent success rate.
- No alteration of natural teeth required.
Are Dental Implants Right For You?
Some traits that make good implant candidates include stable oral health and adequate jawbone density. Whether you’re missing one tooth or many, you can trust that this treatment will bring new life to your smile while also preserving your oral health.
Missing Single Tooth
To replace a single tooth, we can place one dental implant below the gums and secure a customized dental crown to it. The nearby teeth will be left completely alone, and the implant will also prevent the remaining teeth from shifting into the gap.
Missing Multiple Teeth
A traditional bridge is anchored to your natural teeth, meaning that if something happens to those, your bridge could possibly fail. When this restoration is secured to two dental implants located on either side of the gap, not only does it become more secure, but much more durable as well.
Missing All Teeth
If you’re missing all of your teeth, we’ll place anywhere from four to eight dental implants along your jawbone. These will secure a full denture, meaning you won’t have to rely on messy adhesives or natural suction to keep your teeth stable.

Understanding the Cost of Dental Implants
The dental implant procedure is custom-tailored to your unique needs, which means that the cost depends on several factors. These include the type of restoration you require, how many dental implants you need to be placed, and whether you need any preparatory procedures, such as a bone graft. Based on our findings during your initial consultation, we’ll be able to walk you through the pricing as well as your financing options.
