Replace Missing Teeth with Dental Implants
Long-Lasting and Durable
With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime, making them the most reliable and cost-effective tooth replacement option in the long run.
Restores Full Chewing Function
Implants provide the same biting strength as natural teeth, allowing you to eat a variety of foods without discomfort or restrictions.
Helps Preserve Jawbone and Facial Structure
When teeth are missing, the jawbone begins to deteriorate, which can lead to facial sagging and premature aging. Implants stimulate the bone, preserving your natural facial structure.
Secure and Natural-Looking
Our Dental Implant Solutions
Single Tooth Implants
If you’re missing a single tooth, an implant-supported crown can restore your smile without affecting the surrounding teeth.
Multiple Tooth Implants
Instead of using traditional bridges that rely on healthy teeth for support, implant-supported bridges replace multiple missing teeth using secure, anchored implants.
All-on-4 Implants
This innovative technique allows us to restore an entire arch of teeth using just four implants, creating a permanent, full-mouth solution that’s both functional and natural-looking.
Implant-Supported Dentures
More secure and comfortable than traditional dentures, these dentures snap onto implants, preventing the slipping, irritation, and discomfort often associated with removable dentures.
Am I a Candidate for Dental Implants?
Dental implants are an excellent option for many patients, but successful treatment depends on oral health, bone density, and overall well-being. You may be a great candidate if you:
- Have one or more missing teeth that need to be replaced.
- Have sufficient jawbone density to support implants (or are open to bone grafting if needed).
- Are in good overall health with no uncontrolled medical conditions that could affect healing.
- Want a long-term, fixed solution instead of removable dentures or bridges.
If you’re unsure whether implants are the right choice, our team can perform a detailed evaluation to determine the best treatment plan for you.
What to Expect During the Dental Implant Process
Initial Evaluation
We start with a comprehensive exam and 3D digital imaging to assess your oral health and determine the ideal placement for your implants. Our advanced technology allows us to precisely plan your treatment, minimizing risks and maximizing success.
Personalized Treatment Planning
Every patient’s smile is unique, which is why we create a customized plan tailored to your specific needs. This includes determining the number of implants needed, potential bone grafting, and outlining the step-by-step process to restore your smile.
Implant Placement
The implant itself is a small titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone, where it serves as a replacement tooth root. Over the next three to six months, the bone naturally fuses with the implant in a process called osseointegration, ensuring a strong and stable foundation for your new tooth.
Final Restoration
Once the implant has fully integrated with the jawbone, we attach a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture that blends seamlessly with your existing teeth. The final result is a fully restored, natural-looking smile that functions just like real teeth.
Affordable Dental Implant Options
At City Dental Arts, we believe that cost should never be a barrier to quality dental care. That’s why we offer several payment and financing options to help make treatment more accessible.
- Flexible financing plans through CareCredit, Sunbit, and Cherry allow you to spread payments over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do dental implants last?
With proper oral hygiene and regular dental visits, dental implants can last a lifetime. Unlike dentures or bridges, which may need replacements, implants provide a long-term, durable solution.
Is the implant procedure painful?
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, and most patients experience minimal discomfort during and after placement. We also offer sedation options for those who need extra comfort during treatment.
How long does the dental implant process take?
The full implant process usually takes three to six months, allowing time for the implant to integrate with the jawbone before placing the final restoration. However, some cases may require additional procedures, such as bone grafting, which can extend the timeline.
Are dental implants better than dentures?
Yes, dental implants provide more stability, comfort, and functionality compared to traditional dentures. They also preserve bone health, whereas dentures can accelerate bone loss over time.
How much do dental implants cost?
The cost of dental implants varies depending on the number of implants needed and any additional procedures required. We offer financing options to help make treatment more affordable, and our team can provide a detailed breakdown of costs during your consultation.
Can I still get dental implants if I have bone loss?
Yes, but patients with significant bone loss may need a bone grafting procedure to strengthen the jawbone before implant placement. Our advanced digital imaging helps us determine if additional treatment is necessary.
Are there any risks with dental implants?
Complications are rare, but as with any surgery, there is a small risk of infection, implant failure, or minor discomfort. Choosing an experienced provider and following post-surgical care instructions greatly reduces these risks.
How do I care for my dental implants?
Caring for implants is similar to caring for natural teeth. Brush twice a day, floss daily, and visit your dentist regularly for cleanings and checkups to ensure long-term success.
Will my implants look and feel like real teeth?
Yes! Dental implants are designed to match the shape, size, and color of your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless, natural appearance and feel.
