Dental implants

Replace a missing tooth, root and all.

An implant replaces the root as well as the crown, so it chews like a natural tooth and protects the bone around it. Every case starts with a 3D scan.

  • 3D cone beam scan included
  • Placed and restored in house
  • Written estimate before you decide

The implant timeline

  1. Week 1Consult and 3D scan

    We check bone height, nerve position and your bite, then plan the implant on the scan.

  2. Week 2 to 4Implant placement

    A titanium post is placed under local anesthetic. Most people are back at work the next day.

  3. 3 to 6 monthsHealing

    The bone bonds to the implant. You wear a temporary tooth so nobody sees a gap.

  4. 1 or 2 visitsFinal crown

    We scan, design and fit a porcelain crown matched to the teeth beside it.

Patient stories

What patients say.

Sample reviews written for this demo. A live site would pull real ones from Google.

I hadn't been to a dentist in six years and told them so at the desk. Nobody lectured me. Dr. Sethuraman walked me through the x-rays and we made a plan I could afford.
Jordan M., South EndSample review
Cracked a molar on a Friday morning and was in the chair by noon. They told me the price before they started and it matched the bill.
Alicia R., DilworthSample review
My daughter asks when she gets to go back. That alone tells you how they treat kids here.

Questions people ask

Dental Implants, answered.

Straight answers to what patients ask us most.

Am I too old for an implant?

Age alone isn't a reason to say no. Bone health, gum health and conditions like uncontrolled diabetes matter more, and we check all three at the consult.

Does getting an implant hurt?

Placement is done under local anesthetic and most people describe the next few days as sore, like after a tooth extraction. Over the counter pain relief is usually enough.

Will insurance pay for an implant?

Many PPO plans now cover part of an implant, often up to the yearly maximum. We send a pre treatment estimate to your plan so you know before you commit.

How long do implants last?

The implant itself can last decades with good care. The crown on top may need replacing after 15 years or so.
