Experience Unmatched Comfort

Say goodbye to discomfort and hello to implants that feel and function just like natural teeth. With implants, you can brush and floss like normal and indulge in your favorite foods without any worries.

Get ready to smile confidently with implants that are paired with durable and custom-crafted restorations. Our expert team ensures that your implant seamlessly blends with your natural smile, giving you a beautiful and natural-looking result.

Protect Your Oral Health

Preserve your oral health with implants made from biocompatible materials. These implants mimic the form and function of your natural tooth roots, preventing bone resorption caused by tooth loss and ensuring the long-term health of your jawbone.

The Implant Treatment Process

1. Placement

Dental implants serve as artificial tooth roots inserted into the bone where a tooth is missing. The initial phase involves placing this artificial root into the bone, covered with a healing cap.

2. Healing

Typically within 3-4 months your implant will be fully healed and ready to be restored or connected with a crown above your gums.

3. Connect a Crown to the Implant

In the final step, we customize the shape and color of your final crown that will connect to the fully healed implant. You will now be able to eat and chew with confidence!

Frequently Asked Questions

Check out these frequently asked questions, or call us to speak with our team.

What is a single tooth implant?

A single tooth implant is a popular dental solution that consists of three components. First, there is a titanium implant, which is shaped like a tooth root and serves as the foundation. Second, an abutment is used to connect the implant to the restoration. The restoration is the third component and is typically a dental crown that closely resembles a natural tooth. 

How are dental implants made?

Dental implants are made using high-quality titanium in reputable laboratories. These labs offer a variety of standard post sizes for the implants. The restoration, on the other hand, is a personalized prosthetic that is tailored to meet each patient's specific needs and aesthetic preferences. Your dentist may create the restoration in-office using advanced technology or send detailed impressions to a trusted laboratory. The laboratory will then craft a durable and natural-looking crown made from porcelain, which closely resembles tooth enamel. Once completed, the crown is firmly attached to the implant by your dentist.

How long will my dental implant last?

With proper placement by an expert and regular maintenance, dental implants can last for 30 years or even a lifetime. However, it's important to note that the restoration may need to be replaced over time due to regular wear and tear from chewing and biting. Just like traditional crowns or dentures, regular visits to the dentist will allow you to monitor the condition of your restoration and the health of your implant, ensuring the longevity of your smile.

Can my dental implant become infected?

While it is possible for dental implants to become infected, this complication is extremely rare and usually occurs when the implant is not properly cared for after the placement surgery. By following your doctor's post-operative instructions, the chances of developing an infection are very low. It's important to maintain good oral hygiene, including regular brushing, flossing, and professional cleanings, to keep your implant and surrounding tissues healthy.

Do dental implants stop bone loss?

Yes, dental implants are the only tooth replacement option that can prevent bone loss. When you lose a tooth, the jawbone no longer receives stimulation from chewing and biting, causing it to deteriorate over time. This can lead to a weakened jaw and the shifting or loosening of surrounding teeth. Dental implants mimic the function of natural tooth roots by being placed directly into the jawbone. This stimulation from chewing and biting forces helps to maintain the integrity of the jawbone and prevent bone resorption.

Can I get an implant in one day?

While every implant case is unique, some patients may be eligible to receive an implant in just one visit. In such cases, a temporary restoration is provided to protect the implant during the healing process, which typically takes between 3-6 months. During this time, you can speak and eat normally. Dr. K  will closely monitor your healing progress and take digital scans of your teeth to craft your final restoration. 

Your health, your smile, your confidence.
