What Are Dental Implants?

Understanding Dental Implants

Dr. Ryan Look explains the dental implant process, what to expect, and how implants restore your smile with permanent, natural-looking results.

Types of Dental Implants We Offer

From a single missing tooth to a full-mouth restoration, we have the right implant solution for you.

Single Tooth Implants

A single dental implant replaces one missing tooth without affecting the healthy teeth on either side — unlike a traditional bridge, which requires grinding down adjacent teeth for support.

Multiple Tooth Implants & Bridges

When several teeth in a row are missing, two or more implants can support a fixed bridge — a stable, long-term alternative to a removable partial denture.

All-on-4 Full-Arch Implants

All-on-4 uses just four strategically placed implants to support an entire arch of fixed teeth. Many patients leave with a temporary set of fixed teeth the same day.

Implant-Supported Dentures

Implant-retained dentures snap securely onto two to four implants — eliminating slipping, improving chewing, and preserving jawbone.

The Dental Implant Procedure

A clear overview of the process — from your first consultation to your final restoration.

1. Consultation & 3D Planning

We'll review your history, perform a comprehensive exam, and capture a 3D cone-beam CT scan. This lets us evaluate bone density, locate nerves, and digitally plan the exact position of every implant before surgery.

2. Site Preparation (If Needed)

Patients with jawbone loss may need a bone graft or sinus lift to rebuild the foundation needed to support an implant.

3. Implant Placement

Your implant is placed using computer-guided surgical technology for sub-millimeter precision under IV sedation. A single implant typically takes 30–60 minutes.

4. Healing & Osseointegration

Over 3–6 months, the implant fuses with your jawbone. Sedated patients receive complimentary PRP treatment to accelerate healing.

5. Final Restoration

Once fully integrated, we take digital impressions and coordinate with your dentist to fabricate your final crown, bridge, or denture.

Am I a Candidate for Dental Implants?

Most healthy adults missing one or more teeth are candidates.

The best candidates have:

  • Good general health and well-controlled chronic conditions
  • Healthy gum tissue free of active periodontal disease
  • Sufficient jawbone density (or willingness to undergo bone grafting)
  • A commitment to good oral hygiene and regular dental visits

Patients who smoke, have uncontrolled diabetes, or take certain medications may still qualify but require additional planning. The only way to know for sure is a full consultation.

Dental Implant FAQs

Answers to the most common questions about dental implants.

With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. The titanium post itself is highly durable, and the crown on top typically lasts 15–20 years before needing replacement.
No. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia or IV sedation, so you'll feel nothing during surgery. Most patients report mild soreness for 2–3 days afterward.
From initial consultation to final crown, the full process typically takes 4–8 months — most of which is healing time. Some patients qualify for same-day implants or All-on-4.
Coverage varies by plan. Many dental insurance plans cover a portion of the implant procedure. Our team will verify your benefits before treatment and help maximize your coverage.
Bone grafting and sinus lift procedures can rebuild the jawbone foundation needed to support an implant. Both are performed in our office.
Care for your implants exactly like natural teeth — brush twice daily, floss, and visit your general dentist every six months for cleanings.
Yes, but smoking significantly increases the risk of implant failure. We strongly recommend quitting at least two weeks before surgery and throughout healing.
Most patients return to work the next day. For more complex cases or full-arch surgery, we recommend taking 2–3 days off.
