Implant Placement
What Is Dental Implant Placement?
Dental implant placement is the process of positioning a small titanium post in the jawbone to act like a replacement tooth root. After the implant heals and integrates with the bone, it can support a crown, bridge, or denture. Implant placement is carefully planned to protect nearby structures and support long-term function.
Why Consider Implant Placement?
Secure, Stable Support
Implants can provide a sturdy foundation for replacement teeth, helping you chew and speak with confidence.
Planned With Precision
We use careful evaluation and imaging to plan implant position based on your anatomy and smile goals.
Designed For Natural Function
Implants are intended to work with your bite so your restoration feels comfortable and functional.
Steps In The Implant Process
We start by confirming that implants are a good fit for your health and goals. That typically includes an exam, imaging, and a review of any existing dental work or gum concerns.
Placement is done according to a personalized plan. After placement, healing time allows the implant to integrate with the bone. Once healed, we move forward with the restoration that attaches to the implant.
Every treatment plan is unique. We’ll explain your timeline, answer questions, and coordinate follow-ups so you always know what comes next.
