Reclaim Your Smile with Dental Implants & Dentures
Whether you need single-tooth implants, removable dentures, or All-on-4 implant-supported dentures, we are here to help you achieve your best smile.
Who Can Benefit from Implants and Dentures?
Tooth loss is a common issue that affects many adults. In fact, 70% of adults between the ages of 35-44 have lost at least one tooth, while 26% of patients over the age of 44 are missing all their teeth. If you find yourself among this statistic, it's time to consider tooth loss replacement. The ideal candidate for implants and dentures should:
- Be in good overall oral health without gum disease or infections.
- Have adequate healthy jawbone to support the implant, especially for single tooth implants.
Restoring Your Smile with Dental Implants
Dental implants are the gold standard for permanent tooth loss solutions, offering a host of benefits that can rejuvenate your smile for life. Implants are crafted from biocompatible materials that seamlessly bond to your jaw, creating a stable foundation for your replacement teeth. With dental implants, you can:
- Replace one or more missing teeth to complete your smile.
- Regain the ability to eat, chew, and speak with confidence.
- Reverse the loss of bone tissue that occurs after tooth loss.
- Enjoy a comfortable, natural-looking smile.
Depending on your specific needs, we can replace a single tooth or restore your smile with a full-arch denture using advanced techniques like All-on-4 and All-on-6 implants.

Regain Your Smile with Natural-Looking Dentures
Dentures have come a long way and are now crafted from lifelike materials to provide a comfortable, natural fit. You have two main options when it comes to dentures: removable dentures and implant-supported dentures. With dentures, you can:
- Replace a full set of teeth with a full-arch denture.
- Restore the strength and function of your bite.
- Enjoy the confidence of a complete smile.
- Support your facial muscles and maintain a natural facial appearance.
Depending on your preferences and requirements, we offer both implant-retained and implant-supported dentures, including the innovative Teeth-in-a-Day procedure.
Implant-Retained Dentures
These dentures offer a more comfortable experience as your gums absorb a significant portion of the bite forces. They require fewer implants, and in some cases, your existing dentures can be adapted with snap-on attachments, making treatment cost-effective. Although they significantly improve your ability to talk and eat comfortably, they are not a complete substitute for a natural bite and should be removed at night for cleaning.
Implant-Supported Dentures
These fixed dentures take the full force of your bite, absorbing it through the implants into the jawbone, providing the most natural and effective bite for patients. While they typically require more implants, they offer a remarkably natural appearance and enhanced stability.
Teeth-in-a-Day
This unique procedure allows you to leave our office with a new smile on the same day as your implant surgery. Temporary, fully functional teeth are placed immediately after your implant surgery and remain in position until your permanent teeth are ready to be attached to the implants.
All-on-4 Implants: A Remarkable Solution for a Complete Smile
All-on-4 implants are designed to address complete mouth tooth loss. This minimally invasive procedure involves placing four implants in either your top or bottom jaw, strategically positioning the posts in the front and back of your mouth. These four implants serve as anchors for a full arch overdenture, effectively replacing an entire set of teeth. Once secured to the implants, your new appliance provides increased stability and a natural look.
The key benefits of All-on-4 implants include:
- Minimally invasive option allowing for the placement of four implants to secure a complete arch denture.
- Typically enables you to receive both implants and replacement teeth in a single procedure.
- Often faster and more cost-effective compared to traditional implant procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the Teeth-in-a-Day procedure take?
The Teeth-in-a-Day procedure typically takes several hours, during which we place the implants and attach temporary, fully functional teeth. You'll leave our office with a new smile the same day, while your permanent teeth are being fabricated.
Can I eat normally with implant-supported dentures?
Yes, implant-supported dentures offer excellent stability, allowing you to eat a wide range of foods with confidence. You won't have to worry about your dentures slipping or moving while eating.
Will my dentures look natural?
Absolutely! Dentures are now crafted from advanced materials that closely mimic the appearance of natural teeth. We take great care in designing and customizing dentures to ensure they blend seamlessly with your smile.
How long do dental implants last?
Dental implants are designed to be a permanent tooth replacement solution. With proper care, they can last a lifetime. Routine check-ups and excellent oral hygiene are essential to ensuring the longevity of your implants.
Are dental implants painful?
The implant placement procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia and sedation, ensuring your comfort and peace of mind. After the procedure, you may experience some mild discomfort or swelling, but this can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain medication.
Can I finance my dental implant treatment?
Exceptional dental care should be accessible to all. That's why we're proud to offer flexible payment options, financing solutions, and in-house payment plans. We work tirelessly to find solutions that fit your budget and ensure that your oral health is never compromised due to financial concerns. Your well-being and your wallet both matter to us.
Is dental implant surgery covered by insurance?
Dental implant coverage varies among insurance plans. Some dental insurance policies may cover a portion of the cost, while others may not provide any coverage for implants. It's essential to check with your insurance provider to understand your specific coverage and potential out-of-pocket expenses.
Are there any age restrictions for dental implants?
There is no strict age limit for dental implants. Many older adults successfully receive implants. However, candidates should have good overall health and sufficient bone density to support the implants. Age-related health conditions and medications may be taken into account during the evaluation process.
How much do dental implants cost?
The cost of dental implants can vary widely depending on factors such as the number of implants needed, any necessary additional procedures, and your unique needs. It's best to consult with our team for a personalized cost estimate. Keep in mind that while dental implants may have a higher upfront cost, they offer long-term benefits and value.
