Single Tooth Dental Implants Near You

Single implants offer several important advantages:

• Preserve the health of surrounding teeth
• Prevent shifting or misalignment caused by empty spaces
• Stimulate jawbone to prevent bone loss
• Provide a natural look, feel, and chewing experience
• Offer a long-lasting, reliable solution

If you are missing one or a few adjacent teeth, a single implant may be the ideal replacement option.

Most healthy adults are candidates for single tooth implants. Ideal candidates have:

• Healthy gums
• Adequate jawbone to support the implant
• Good overall oral health

If bone loss has occurred due to long-term missing teeth, bone grafting may be recommended to rebuild support. During your consultation, we will review your health history, examine your teeth and gums, and use digital imaging to determine whether an implant is the right choice.

Assessment and Planning

We begin with an oral examination and diagnostic imaging to evaluate bone structure and identify the best placement for your implant.

Implant Placement

A titanium post is placed into the jawbone. Initial healing usually takes a few days, while full osseointegration takes three to six months.

Restoration

Once the implant has integrated with the bone, a custom ceramic crown is secured to complete your new tooth.

Dental implants require the same care as natural teeth:

• Brush and floss daily
• Visit us for routine cleanings and exams
• Report any changes in comfort or fit

With proper maintenance, a dental implant can last for many years.
