Am I a candidate?
Most adults with a missing tooth — or several — are candidates. Bone volume, gum health, and general medical history are reviewed at consultation. If we don't think implants are the right path for you, we'll say so directly.
How long does the process take?
From consultation to final restoration is typically 3–6 months. Most of that is healing time — your in-office visits are usually four. For full-arch cases, you often leave the placement appointment with teeth.
Will my insurance cover it?
Some plans contribute toward the implant, the abutment, or the crown — others toward none. We verify your benefits before treatment and apply whatever your plan allows. The full cost and any out-of-pocket portion are written down in advance.
What if I'm missing all of my teeth?
Full-arch implants — sometimes called "all-on-four" or full-mouth implants — replace an entire arch on as few as four implants. Stable, permanent teeth that don't come out at night.
How is this different from a bridge or denture?
A bridge relies on cutting down two adjacent teeth. A denture sits on the gums and shifts. An implant stands on its own — independently rooted in bone, with no impact on the teeth beside it. Longest-lasting, most natural feel, lowest long-term maintenance.
What does it cost?
A single implant restoration typically falls in a defined range; full-arch is meaningfully higher. Your written plan at consultation includes every line item — implant, abutment, crown, sedation if needed, follow-ups — with no add-ons later. Financing is available through Cherry, CareCredit, and Proceed.
