Dental Implants to Replace Missing Teeth

The process begins with a thorough examination and 3D imaging to plan precise placement. During a minor surgical procedure, the implant post is placed into the jawbone. Over the next few months, the bone naturally fuses with the implant through a process called osseointegration, creating a stable, long-lasting base. Once the implant is securely anchored, an abutment (connector piece) is attached, and a lifelike dental crown is custom crafted to match the color and shape of the surrounding teeth.

The end result is a permanent, comfortable tooth replacement that looks, feels, and functions like a natural tooth—helping patients eat, speak, and smile with confidence.

The cost of a dental implant varies, depending on the complexity of the case (Does a broken tooth need to be extracted first? Does it need bone grafting? Does it need a custom abutment?) However, a good ballpark rule of thumb is to estimate between $3500-$5500 to replace a single missing tooth. For a more detailed and accurate estimate, schedule an appointment today!
