The Dental Implant Process
1. Consultation & Planning
Your journey begins with a consultation. We assess your mouth, discuss your goals, and use imaging to plan the best placement for your implant.
2. Implant Placement
During the procedure, a small titanium post is placed into your jawbone. It acts as the root for your new tooth. Most patients say the process feels easier than a tooth extraction.
3. Healing & Integration
Over the next few months, your implant fuses with the bone — a process called osseointegration. We check in regularly to ensure proper healing.
4. Crown Attachment
Once healed, we attach a custom-made crown. It’s crafted to match your natural teeth in color and shape for a seamless look and feel.
Aftercare & Longevity
With good brushing, flossing, and regular checkups, your implant can last decades. We’ll show you exactly how to care for it at home.
Insurance & Payment Help
Implants are an investment — and we’re here to make them affordable. Our team helps check your insurance, and we offer payment plans if needed.
