Dental Implants in Palm Coast, FL

Dental implants are permanent, replacement tooth roots that are made from titanium. Implants support false teeth and allow you to restore the function and aesthetics of your smile after tooth loss. The permanence of implants makes them a popular choice for people struggling with tooth loss.

If you’re missing one or several teeth, you know very well that the repercussions can be many and severe. Gaps in your teeth compromise your ability to chew. Several missing teeth can also cause bone atrophy, which results in bite collapse. What’s more, not having enough teeth can make it impossible for you to get the necessary nutrition, which impacts your overall well-being.

What to Expect

We carefully assess our patients to determine the state of their oral and overall health before recommending dental implants. For traditional dental implants, you need to have sufficient bone to allow implant surgery as well as healthy gums.

Implant surgery is performed under anesthesia. This may be local anesthesia with the option of sedation or general anesthesia.

Single Tooth Placement

During your first appointment, our dentist will drill a hole in your bone and insert the titanium root. After several months of healing and osseointegration, our dentist attaches an abutment or connector post to the implant and then finishes off with the replacement tooth.

For single tooth replacement, a dental crown completes the look.
