Dental Implants
Dental implants serve as permanent prosthetic tooth roots for single or multiple missing teeth. Our titanium implants integrate with jawbone tissue through osseointegration, supporting crowns, bridges, or dentures. Patients benefit from restored chewing function, improved speech, and natural-looking aesthetics that prevent adjacent teeth from shifting.
All-on-4
All-on-4 provides immediate full-arch tooth replacement using four strategically placed implants. This technique allows same-day denture attachment without requiring multiple surgeries. Patients receive temporary prosthetics during initial surgery, with permanent replacements after healing, offering significant time and cost savings compared to traditional implant methods.
Bone Grafting
Bone grafting procedures rebuild deteriorated jawbone structures to support dental implants. Using donor, synthetic, or autogenous bone materials, we strengthen implant foundations for patients with bone loss from tooth extraction or periodontal disease. This enables successful implant placement where it would otherwise be impossible due to insufficient bone density.
Implant Salvage
Implant salvage addresses failing or damaged dental implants through specialized intervention techniques. Our team treats peri-implantitis infections, stabilizes loose implants, and performs revision surgeries when necessary. Early intervention often preserves implant functionality, avoiding complete removal and replacement procedures while maintaining treatment investment.
Teeth-in-an-Hour
Teeth-in-an-Hour delivers same-day tooth replacement through advanced guided surgery techniques. Using 3D imaging and surgical guides, we extract failing teeth, place implants, and attach provisional prosthetics in a single appointment. This accelerated process reduces treatment time from months to hours while maintaining precise implant positioning and immediate functional benefits.

Questions
What dental implant options exist for replacing multiple missing teeth?
We offer implant-supported bridges requiring as few as two implants for multiple adjacent teeth, or All-on-4 solutions for full arch replacement using four implants to support an entire denture.
How does bone grafting affect implant eligibility?
Bone grafting creates sufficient jawbone density to support implants, enabling treatment for patients who previously couldn't receive implants due to bone loss from tooth loss or periodontal disease.
Can I receive implants if I smoke?
While smoking increases implant failure risk, we evaluate each case individually. Patients who reduce or quit smoking before surgery show improved success rates with proper post-operative care.
What financing options are available for implant treatment?
We accept PPO, HMO, and POS dental insurance plans, plus offer CareCredit financing with flexible monthly payment plans to make implant treatment more accessible for qualified patients.
How do mini dental implants differ from standard implants?
Mini implants have smaller diameters requiring less invasive placement surgery, making them ideal for patients with limited jawbone density or those seeking denture stabilization solutions.
What post-operative care is required after implant surgery?
Patients receive detailed aftercare instructions including dietary restrictions, oral hygiene protocols, and follow-up schedules. Most require only over-the-counter pain medication with minimal swelling when following prescribed care routines.
