What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots designed to mimic your natural tooth. Dental implants are designed to allow you to speak, chew, and drink just as you would with a normal set of teeth. Dental implants are composed of three parts:
- The Post: The post is the portion of the implant surgically inserted into your jawbone, designed to be your new tooth roots.
- The Abutment: The abutment connects the post to your restoration.
- The Restoration: The restoration is the visible portion of your dental implant. It will give the appearance of your new tooth.
Our team has the experience to offer you single implant crowns for a single missing tooth, bridges for three or more missing teeth, and dentures for partial or full mouth restorations. We also provide All-on-4® consultations to determine if you are a candidate for full arch restoration with the use of only four implants. We strive to provide you with a versatile treatment plan that's unique to your needs.
Our Dental Implant Process
Our office will begin your dental implant process by first scheduling a consultation with you to review your oral and overall health and discuss your goals. Next, we'll determine a treatment plan to meet your needs. Our dentist uses the CBCT scanner to scan your mouth, which allows for a clear and in-depth diagnosis. We will then perform any necessary pretreatments and allow adequate healing time. Once you're ready, the post will be surgically inserted into the jaw to act as your new tooth root. After your mouth has healed, we'll ask you to return to our office for our dentist to place your new crown, bridge, or denture restoration.
Our Pretreatment Options
If during your consultation, our dentist determines that your jaw or teeth are not healthy enough to support a restoration, you may need to undergo pretreatments before receiving a dental implant. Our office proudly provides pretreatments in-house to offer a seamless treatment plan for you. The pretreatments we offer are:
- Extractions: Our office strives to save your natural teeth whenever possible, but if a tooth has too much damage or decay, it must be extracted to make room for your new tooth implant. Our dentist will remove your tooth before beginning dental implant treatment and allow for appropriate healing time.
- Bone Grafts: Our dentist assesses your jawbone density and health during your consultation. If it is determined that there is not enough jawbone density to support the implant post, we may recommend a bone graft. Our dentist will insert additional bone into your jaw to create a stable foundation for your new dental implant restoration.

Dental Implant FAQs
We understand dental implants may be intimidating. Our team understands you may have questions surrounding our dental implant process, and we are ready to guide you through your treatment process. Common questions our patients have upon receiving treatment are:
Do I still need to see the dentist after receiving dental implants?
Yes, you should still visit our office for normal checkups and exams after receiving a dental implant. Our dentist will perform routine cleaning and monitor your oral health. Keeping up with your dental appointments can help maintain the longevity of your new dental implant and restoration.
How long will my dental implant last?
The dental implant you received is intended to provide a long-term solution for tooth loss. With proper care, your implant can last up to 25 years, and your restoration will last 10-15 years on average.
Who qualifies for dental implants?
There are multiple forms of implant procedures, ranging from a single tooth to full mouth restorations. Our dentist will review your health during your consultation and determine the correct treatment for you.
