What Are Dental Implants?
Losing a tooth can make it hard to chew your food and might cause more problems for the teeth around it. But don’t worry, dental implants are a smart way to fix that!
A dental implant is a strong, long-lasting way to replace that missing tooth. First, a small metal post is placed in your jawbone. Then, a piece called an abutment connects the post to a crown or bridge (the part that looks like a tooth).
These implants are made to last a long time and help your mouth feel normal again. We work hard to make sure they look great and stay strong!

Creating the Right Treatment for Your Smile
Single Dental Implants
A single dental implant replaces one missing tooth or teeth in different areas. Each crown looks and feels natural, blending with your smile. Implants help stabilize your bite and protect remaining teeth, making them a smart investment to avoid more costly dental treatments later.
Dental Bridges
Dental bridges consist of several false teeth fused into a single restoration to replace multiple teeth in one area. Because we can replace many teeth with fewer implant posts, bridges are a great approach to make dental implants more affordable and minimize the surgical phase of your treatment.
Snap-On Dentures
Snap-on dentures, or overdentures, replace missing teeth and look like traditional dentures but feature special locators underneath. These locators clip onto 2–4 dental implants for a secure fit, preventing the denture from slipping or coming loose, offering better comfort.
All-on-X Full Mouth Dental Implants
All-on-X implants are ideal for people with many or all missing teeth. This method combines implants with a fixed bridge for a natural look and better function. Using 4–6 implants per arch, they’re strategically placed to support a full set of stable, permanent teeth.
The Dental Implant Timeline
Consult & Planning
At your first visit, we’ll discuss your goals, review your health, and take detailed digital scans. If implants are the right choice, we’ll carefully design every part of your new smile, from tooth shape to how it fits your face.
Everything is personalized, precise, and built to last.
Procedure & Same-Day Teeth
During your procedure, you’ll be relaxed and comfortable with safe, gentle sedation. If teeth need to be removed, we may place bone grafts and implants in the same visit.
In most cases, we make a small opening in the gums to place the implants securely into your jawbone. Then we attach a connector and fit a temporary set of teeth, so you leave with a full smile the same day.
You never have to go without teeth.
Follow-Up Appointment
Dental implants heal well and last a long time. After your treatment, we’ll check in with you regularly to make sure everything is healing just right.
These visits help keep your smile healthy and strong.
Healing & Final Restorations
Over the next few months, your implant will safely bond with your bone. Most people feel only mild discomfort in the first few days.
Once healing is done, you’ll come back for new scans and to get your final teeth, these are custom-made to look natural and last a long time.
With good care and regular checkups, your implants will last you a lifetime!
