Sound familiar?
A missing tooth is never just a gap
It changes how you eat, how you talk, and how often you smile in photos. This is what patients tell us on their first visit.
Why it matters
Waiting doesn't keep things the way they are
When a tooth is gone, the bone underneath has nothing to hold. Over time, a few things tend to happen, slowly and quietly.
01
The bone starts to shrink
Without a root to support, the jawbone under the gap slowly melts away.
02
Nearby teeth drift
Teeth on either side lean into the space, and your bite shifts.
03
Eating gets harder
You chew on one side and quietly stop ordering the foods you love.
04
The good news
An implant replaces the root as well as the tooth, so it helps stop all of this.
Every mouth is different. Your dentist will tell you what's happening in yours at your consultation.

1Titanium post
The solution
Meet the dental implant. The closest thing to a real tooth.
Three simple parts work together to rebuild a tooth from the root up. Most people you meet afterwards won't even know it's there.
1
The post
A small titanium post placed in your jawbone. Over a few months, the bone grows around it and holds it firmly, just like a natural root.
2
The abutment
A small connector that links the post to your new tooth.
3
The crown
Your new tooth, custom-made to match the color, shape and size of your smile.
Strong. Natural. Long-lasting.
It looks, feels and works like your natural teeth, for years to come.

Step by step
From first visit to final smile
No surprises. You'll know every step, and what it costs, before anything starts.
Day 1
Consultation & digital scan
We check your teeth, gums and bone with digital imaging, then explain your options and costs in plain English.
Treatment day
The post is placed
The area is fully numbed first, so you feel pressure, not pain. Many people are back to their normal routine within a day or two.
A few months
Your bone does the work
The bone grows around the post and locks it in place, just like a natural root.
Final visit
Your new tooth goes on
We attach a custom crown matched to your smile. Then you just brush, floss and enjoy.
Honest answers
The 4 questions everyone asks first
?Does it hurt?
The area is fully numbed before we start, so most people feel pressure rather than pain. Any soreness afterwards is usually mild and short-lived.
?How long does it take?
The visits themselves are short. The healing takes a few months while the bone bonds to the post. We'll give you your exact timeline at your consultation.
?What will it cost?
It depends on how many teeth and your bone health, so we give you a clear price up front. Insurance may help, and CareCredit and Cherry can spread it into monthly payments.
?Am I a good candidate?
Age alone usually isn't the deciding factor. Healthy gums and enough bone matter most, and we check both with digital imaging at your consultation.

FAQ
Still wondering? Fair enough.
Will anyone be able to tell it's an implant?
Very unlikely. The crown is custom-made to match the color, shape and size of your other teeth. Most people you meet won't know it's there.
I already wear dentures. Can implants help?
Often, yes. If your denture slips or makes eating hard, talk to us about your options at your consultation.
Can you replace more than one tooth?
Yes. Whether it's one tooth or several, we'll plan what works best for your mouth and your budget.
How do I look after an implant?
Just like your natural teeth: brush twice a day, floss, and keep up your regular check-ups and cleanings.
Is it covered by insurance?
It depends on your plan. Share your insurance details and we'll confirm your benefits before your visit.
What if I'm nervous about dental work?
You're not alone. We explain every step before we start, the area is fully numbed, and you can ask us to pause at any time.
