Dental implants are artificial tooth roots of titanium surgically placed into the jawbone to support replacement teeth or bridges. Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, implants provide a stable foundation and closely resemble natural teeth in appearance and functionality.

The first step in getting dental implants at brush365 is to schedule a consultation with one of our highly skilled and compassionate doctors. At your visit, x-rays may be necessary, as well as a clinical exam to determine if you are a good candidate for dental implants. If extractions are required, we often recommend socket preservation (bone graft placement) to ensure we have adequate bone for implant placement. This is a virtually painless and quick procedure. After an implant has healed, an abutment or attachment is usually required to connect it to a crown or denture. At brush365, you can rest assured that your dental team will be kind and will communicate with you every step of the way.

Most individuals with good general and oral health are suitable for dental implants. However, a comprehensive examination is necessary to determine your eligibility.

The duration of the dental implant process varies for each patient. It depends on the number of implants needed, the need for preparatory procedures like bone grafting, and the individual’s healing process. On average, the entire process, including healing periods, can take several months.

Local anesthesia is administered during the implant surgery to ensure patients are comfortable and do not experience pain. Post-surgery discomfort can be managed with prescribed medications. The recovery period typically involves mild discomfort, swelling, and minor bleeding.

The cost of dental implants can vary depending on how many are needed, the complexity of the case, and several other factors. At brush365, we know how important it is for quality dental care to be affordable. At your complimentary consult, your team at brush365 will review your dental implant treatment plan costs and discuss our many options to make care as affordable as possible. As an in-network provider with most insurances, we always do our best to maximize your plan to keep your costs as low as possible. For many of our patients who do not have traditional dental insurance, our in-house membership plan, called The Brilliance Plan, offers significant discounts on dental implants. We also partner with several third-party financing companies to allow you to make low monthly payments on your dental implants. We encourage you to call one of our friendly team members to discuss your options!
