A lasting solution for missing teeth
Planned and placed in-house by our board-certified oral surgeon, Dr. Sung Han. From a single tooth to a full-arch restoration, with no outside referrals required.
The closest thing to a natural tooth
Unlike a bridge or denture, a dental implant replaces the tooth root itself. A titanium post anchored directly into the jawbone, topped with a custom-made crown. The result looks, feels, and functions like a natural tooth, and it helps preserve the jawbone density that naturally erodes after tooth loss.
Doesn't shift or click
Implants are anchored into bone, so they stay put when you eat, speak, or laugh. Unlike a removable denture.
Preserves your jawbone
The titanium post stimulates the bone the way a natural root does, helping prevent the bone loss that follows tooth loss.
Built to last decades
With proper care, implants are designed to be a long-term, durable solution. Not something you'll be replacing again in a few years.
Implant solutions for every situation
Single-Tooth Implants
Replace one missing tooth with a standalone implant and crown. The most conservative option, since neighboring teeth aren't touched.
Implant-Supported Bridges
Replace several missing teeth in a row using just two implants to anchor a fixed bridge. No removable appliance needed.
Full-Arch Restoration
Replace an entire upper or lower arch of teeth using a fixed, implant-supported prosthetic. A permanent alternative to a full denture.
Implant Overdenture
A removable denture that snaps securely onto a small number of implants. More stable and affordable than a fixed full-arch, and still far more secure than a traditional denture.
The stages involved
1. Consultation & Planning
A full exam and digital X-rays evaluate your bone health and map out whether immediate placement (same day as an extraction) or healed-site placement (after the site heals) fits your case.
2. Placement
Local anesthetic numbs the area, the implant post is placed into the jawbone, and a healing cap is placed over it.
3. Osseointegration
The bone fuses to the implant over 3–6 months before the next stage can begin.
4. 2nd Stage Surgery
A brief visit once integration is confirmed. The gum is reopened and a healing abutment attached to shape the tissue for your final restoration.
5. Final Restoration
A scan captures the exact fit, and 1–3 weeks later your custom crown or bridge is attached.
For recovery at each stage, see our guides for implant surgery, 2nd stage surgery, and your final crown or bridge.

Bone grafting
If bone loss has occurred where a tooth is missing, a bone graft can rebuild volume and density in the jaw before an implant is placed. It's a routine part of implant planning for patients who need it, not a separate ordeal. See our bone graft guide → for recovery detail.
Implants FAQ
Most healthy adults with adequate jawbone density are candidates. If bone loss has occurred, a bone graft can often still make implants possible. This is something we evaluate during your consultation.
From placement to final crown is typically three to six months, since the implant needs time to fully integrate with the jawbone before it can support a crown.
Coverage varies by plan. Some PPOs cover a portion of the cost, especially the restorative crown. We'll help you understand your specific benefits before treatment begins.
Placement is done under local anesthesia (with sedation options available for anxious patients), and most people describe recovery discomfort as comparable to a tooth extraction.
Yes. This includes prescribed medications, but also any recreational or non-prescribed drug use. Certain substances can seriously affect how your body responds to local anesthesia. We will never judge you for disclosing this. This practice was built around patient safety first, and what you tell us stays confidential.
