Dental Implants
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to replace missing teeth. This two-stage process begins with implant placement followed by crown attachment after bone integration. Implants preserve facial structure by preventing bone resorption while providing natural-looking tooth replacement that allows normal eating and speaking functions. Our protocol includes comprehensive 3D imaging for precise placement.
Implant Overdenture
Implant-supported overdentures provide secure tooth replacement solutions that snap onto dental implants. This treatment option preserves jawbone density while eliminating denture adhesives. Our protocol includes bone assessment to ensure sufficient support for implant-retained prosthetics, with options for both removable and fixed restoration solutions tailored to individual patient needs.
Sinus Lift
Sinus lift procedures add bone material between the jaw and maxillary sinuses to support implant placement. Our surgical protocol includes creating a bone window, elevating the sinus membrane, and grafting material placement. Patients typically wait 4-6 months for bone maturation before implant placement, with careful monitoring throughout the healing process.
Bone Grafting
Bone grafting procedures restore jawbone volume after tooth loss to enable successful implant placement. We use autogenous, allogenic, or synthetic bone materials to rebuild deficient areas. The 3-6 month healing period allows graft integration with existing bone, creating a stable foundation for dental implants through guided tissue regeneration techniques.
Extractions
Surgical extractions prepare patients for implant treatment by removing damaged or decayed teeth. Our protocol includes local anesthesia, careful bone preservation techniques, and post-operative care instructions to optimize healing. Complex cases may require bone grafting at the extraction site to maintain future implant placement options.

Questions
Who qualifies for Dental Hearts' implant services?
Patients must qualify through a 3D CT scan and consultation process. Our team evaluates bone density and overall oral health to determine treatment eligibility during the initial assessment.
What payment options are available?
We offer cash pricing, credit card payments, and Denefits payment plans with no credit checks required. Veterans receive free initial consultations with 3D imaging included.
How long does the implant process take?
Treatment timelines vary from 4-6 months for straightforward cases to 8-12 months when bone grafting or sinus lifts are required before implant placement.
Do you accept dental insurance?
While we don't bill insurance directly, we provide documentation for potential reimbursement. Our discounted rates often make treatment more affordable than traditional insurance-covered options.
Are implant overdentures removable?
Yes, implant-supported overdentures typically snap onto attachments for daily removal. We also discuss fixed restoration options with patients during treatment planning consultations.
What post-operative care is required?
Patients receive detailed instructions covering pain management, swelling reduction, and oral hygiene. Follow-up appointments monitor healing progress and ensure proper integration of dental implants.
