What Are Dental Implants?

We use dental implants to replace missing teeth, whether you’re missing one tooth or many. An implant consists of three parts: the implant itself, which is a small titanium post we surgically place into your jawbone in place of a tooth root; an abutment, which sits on the implant and connects it to your restoration; and the restoration, which is the part visible above the gumline that looks like a tooth. The restorations we use include a dental crown or bridge for single-tooth implants or when replacing a few teeth scattered throughout the mouth, and an implant-supported denture when replacing many or all teeth in an arch. At your implant consultation, we’ll discuss your needs and lifestyle to help determine the best restoration option for you. Get dental implants near you by scheduling a visit with us!

Benefits of Implants

We’ve found that our patients love what dental implants can do for their smile. More than just replacing a missing tooth, a dental implant can give you the confidence you need for social and professional interactions again. Implants offer our patients a number of benefits, including:

  • Look, feel & function like natural teeth
  • Permanently replace missing teeth, so no need for messy adhesives
  • Easy to care for – brush and floss like normal
  • Last a lifetime with proper hygiene routine

Who Is a Good Dental Implants Candidate?

If you’re missing even one tooth, you could be an excellent candidate for a dental implant. In order to determine if implants are best for your needs, we can bring you in for a consultation with Dr. Nguyen. He’ll assess your dental health, talk with you about your expectations for your smile, and go over your tooth replacement options. Our team will also take X-rays of your teeth and jawbone to determine if your mouth is healthy enough for dental implants. If necessary, we can perform a bone graft to add bone-like material to your jawbone and stimulate new bone growth, giving us a more solid foundation for placing an implant. We want to do whatever we can to give you back a healthy smile, so come in for a consultation with our team.

Can dental implants be used to replace many missing teeth?

In addition to single dental implants, our practice also offers implant-supported dentures, which can be used to replace many missing teeth at once. Instead of placing one implant crown per implant, a custom denture is created that attaches to just a few dental implants that are strategically placed throughout the arch. This allows patients to receive the combined benefits of dental implants and custom dentures. Not sure if you need single implants or implant-supported dentures? Our team can assess your situation during your consultation and make a personalized recommendation for you.

Are dental implants expensive?

Dental implants tend to be more of a financial investment than alternative tooth-replacement methods like dental bridges. However, many patients find them to be a cost-effective treatment option due to their longevity and durability as well as their natural feel and functionality. Many insurance providers offer coverage for implants, so we recommend reviewing your coverage to see what you may receive. Our practice also accepts CareCredit™ payment plans, which can help divide the cost of your care into manageable monthly payments. For additional financial questions or concerns, please contact us!

Great overall experience getting a dental cleaning. Very friendly staff, beautifully designed office, and a comfortable experience watching calming Netflix nature programming while in the chair. Complimentary beverages are in the waiting room and so is a little play area for kids.It felt to me that this was a patient-focused family practice as opposed to a cold, corporate dental mill trying to churn through as many patients as possible.I’ll definitely be coming back here for all my dental needs and I highly recommend.

Dr. Nguyen and his staff are very welcoming and they provide an excellent experience every time I visit. I’ve only been here twice for annual checkups but would definitely consider and recommend this place to anyone who appreciates good customer experience and a very thoughtful approach to making sure that you feel at home. I have some procedures set up for later in the month and I must actually be the only person in the world actually looking forward to a dentist appointment.
