Dental Implants
Permanent, natural-looking tooth replacement that looks, feels, and functions just like your own teeth.
Missing teeth can affect far more than your smile—they impact your ability to eat comfortably, speak clearly, and feel confident in social situations. Dental implants offer a permanent, natural-looking solution that restores both function and appearance.
Unlike dentures or bridges, dental implants replace the entire tooth structure, including the root. A titanium post is surgically placed into your jawbone, where it fuses naturally with the bone to create a stable foundation. A custom-made crown is then attached, giving you a tooth that looks, feels, and functions just like your natural teeth.
A permanent solution that restores your smile and your confidence—naturally and beautifully.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about dental implants
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last a lifetime. The implant itself is designed to be permanent, while the crown on top may need replacement after 10-15 years due to normal wear.
Is the dental implant procedure painful?
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so you won’t feel pain during the treatment. Most patients report minimal discomfort afterward, similar to a tooth extraction, which can be managed with over-the-counter pain medication.
How long does the implant process take?
The complete process typically takes 3-6 months, allowing time for the implant to integrate with your jawbone (osseointegration). Some cases may take longer depending on whether bone grafting is needed first.
Am I a candidate for dental implants?
Most adults in good general health with sufficient jawbone density are candidates for dental implants. During your consultation, we’ll assess your bone structure, oral health, and medical history to determine if implants are right for you.
How do I care for my dental implants?
Care for implants just like natural teeth—brush twice daily, floss regularly, and attend routine dental check-ups. Good oral hygiene is essential for the long-term success of your implants.
Can I get implants if I have bone loss?
Yes, in many cases. If you don’t have sufficient bone, we may recommend bone grafting first to build up the area. This adds time to the process but makes implant placement possible for most patients.
What is the success rate of dental implants?
Dental implants have an excellent success rate of over 95%. Success depends on factors like proper placement, good oral hygiene, regular dental visits, and avoiding smoking.
How much do dental implants cost?
The cost varies depending on the number of implants needed and whether additional procedures like bone grafting are required. During your consultation, we’ll provide a detailed treatment plan with transparent pricing tailored to your needs.
