Dental implants cost $5,110, but that will also depend on how many implants you’re receiving, the complexity of your case, and your insurance coverage. We will review all costs during your consultation. You can also save on dental implant treatment with our NBD discount program.

The process typically takes several months, from implant placement to crown attachment, but can vary depending on your needs.

Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the implant procedure, and we use modern techniques and sedation options to keep you comfortable.
Sedation DentistryDental implants are stable, natural-looking solutions that feel and function like the real thing. They help you speak clearly, eat comfortably, and smile without hesitation, whether missing one tooth or several. We offer single implants as well as AOX full arch, full-mouth, and partial-mouth implant options.
Missing teeth don’t have to mean missing confidence. Dental implants restore your smile’s strength, function, and appearance—for the long haul. Our team will work with you to see if dental implants are right for you and the best options.
01.
Initial Consultation and Planning
Your dentist will evaluate your oral health, take X-rays or 3D scans, and discuss your medical history and goals. A customized treatment plan is created to ensure proper placement and timing.
Tooth Extraction (If Needed)
The implant will first be extracted if it replaces a damaged or decayed tooth. In some cases, the implant can be placed immediately afterward.
Bone Grafting (If Necessary)
A bone graft may be required if your jawbone isn’t thick or dense enough to support an implant. This typically adds a few months to the healing timeline.
Implant Placement
The dentist surgically inserts a titanium post into your jawbone. This acts as the artificial root. Local anesthesia is used for comfort during the procedure.
02.
Osseointegration
Over the next three to six months, the implant integrates with the jawbone in osseointegration, forming a solid foundation for the restoration.
Abutment Placement
Once healing is complete, an abutment (a connector piece) is attached to the implant. This may require a minor procedure.
Crown, Bridge, or Denture Placement
After the gums heal, a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture is fabricated and securely placed on the abutment, completing the restoration with a natural look and function.
Follow-Up and Maintenance
Maintaining routine dental visits and good oral hygiene are essential for the long-term health of your dental implant.
Implants are fixed and feel more natural. Unlike dentures, they don’t slip, click, or need removal at night.
Dental implants can last 20 years or longer with proper, ongoing care. Many patients have them for life.
You’re likely a great candidate if you’re in good general health and have enough bone to support an implant.
Tooth extraction is often necessary when a tooth is severely damaged, decayed, or infected beyond repair. It may also be required to relieve overcrowding, especially before orthodontic treatment, or to remove impacted wisdom teeth that cause pain or infection.
Tooth Extractions
Dental crowns protect damaged teeth, while bridges replace missing ones. Together, they restore chewing, speaking, and smiling with natural-looking results.
Dental Crowns and Bridges
AOX stands for “All-on-X,” where “X” refers to the number of implants placed (commonly four to six). This system is ideal for patients missing most or all of their teeth in one arch. Instead of placing an implant for each tooth, AOX anchors complete prosthetic teeth onto several implants.
Whether addressing discoloration, misalignment, gaps, or missing teeth, a smile makeover is customized to fit your unique aesthetic goals and dental needs. The treatments involved will depend on your personal oral health needs and goals.
