What Happens When You Lose One or More Teeth
Missing teeth can affect more than just your appearance. Tooth loss often leads to:
- Difficulty chewing and speaking
- Shifting of neighboring teeth
- Bone loss in the jaw
- Changes in facial structure
- Sagging facial muscles
Replacing missing teeth with dental implants can prevent these issues and improve your overall oral health.
When It's Time to Consider Dental Implants
Consider dental implants if you experience any of the following:
- One or more missing teeth
- Difficulty when eating or speaking
- Uncomfortable dentures or partials
- Noticeable jawbone loss
- Sagging facial muscles and changes in your appearance
- Loss of confidence due to gaps in your smile
Dental implants offer a permanent, stable solution that feels and functions like your natural teeth.
The Life-Improving Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants offer several advantages, including:
- Natural Appearance: They look, feel, and function like natural teeth.
- Durability: Implants are designed to last a lifetime with proper care.
- Bone Preservation: Implants stimulate the jawbone to prevent bone loss.
- Improved Confidence: Enjoy a complete smile and a renewed sense of self-esteem.

Most patients report minimal discomfort during and after implant surgery. Our team ensures your comfort with local anesthesia and sedation options, including IV sedation. We will provide post-surgical care instructions to ensure a comfortable recovery.
How long do dental implants last?

How much do dental implants cost?

How do I care for my dental implants?
Dental implants require the same care as natural teeth: regular brushing, flossing, and professional cleanings will help maintain their longevity.
How long does it take to complete the dental implant process?
The entire process typically takes several months. This includes the initial consultation, implant placement, healing period, and final restoration. The exact timeline depends on individual healing rates and the type of implant service chosen.
Am I a good candidate for dental implants?
Most people in good overall health with sufficient jawbone density are candidates for dental implants. During your consultation, our team will assess your oral health to determine if implants are the right solution for you.
Will I need a bone graft before getting dental implants?
Bone grafting may be necessary if there’s not enough bone to support the implant. Our team will evaluate your jawbone density and determine if a grafting procedure is needed.
Are dental implants covered by insurance?
Some insurance plans may partially cover dental implants. Our team will work with your insurance provider to clarify your coverage and help you explore financing options.
Can smokers receive dental implants?
Smoking can affect the success of dental implants. We recommend quitting or significantly reducing smoking before and after the procedure to improve the chances of successful healing.
