Dental Implants
Tooth loss can make simple pleasures like eating and speaking difficult.
Dental implants help fill in the gap so you can enjoy the foods you love and speak confidently again.
Our skilled team of dentists in Marietta, GA, can help restore your smile with implants and beautiful restorations.
What Are Dental Implants?
An implant is a titanium or zirconia post that acts as an artificial tooth root to support custom restorations such as dentures, dental crowns, and dental bridges. Implants not only offer superior stability, but they also provide the jaw with the stimulation it needs to remain healthy. They are the only restorative dentistry procedure that can stop and prevent the jawbone deterioration that can occur with tooth loss.
Take a Close Look at Dental Implants
In this example, a single missing tooth is replaced using a titanium implant, an abutment, and a dental crown. The abutment is a connector piece that allows your dentist to secure your denture, bridge, or crown to the dental implant.
Dental Implants Can Address All Types of Tooth Loss
Depending on your level of tooth loss, dental implants can support a variety of restorations.
If you are missing multiple consecutive teeth, an implant-supported bridge can restore your smile.
Dentures supported by implants are designed to replace an entire arch of missing teeth.
Missing Most of Your Teeth? Consider All-on-4 Dental Implants
With the advanced All-on-4® method, patients with complete tooth loss can receive a new smile in just one day.
Tooth loss is often followed by bone loss. Traditionally, patients with bone loss often required preparatory bone grafting before qualifying for implant-supported dentures. That's no longer the case, thanks to All-on-4.
Using the All-on-4 method, your dentist can place a denture using just four strategically positioned dental implants along an arch. Two of these implants are inserted at an angle to maximize your existing bone material. All-on-4 dentures can often be placed on the same day as implant surgery, so patients don't need to wait for their new smile.
Benefits of Dental Implants
Restored Function
Even one missing tooth can make chewing and talking difficult. Dental implants help fill in the gap to restore your oral function.
Superior Stability
Traditional dentures rely on messy adhesives to remain in place. Even then, there is a risk of slippage. Implant-supported dentures are secured directly to the implants. There is no need for adhesives and no risk of slippage.
Jawbone Health
Jawbone deterioration can lead to a sunken facial appearance, further tooth loss, and more. Implants provide the jaw with the stimulation it needs to stay healthy and prevent atrophy.
Restored Appearance
Patients with tooth loss often report feeling embarrassed with their smiles. Dental implants paired with a custom restoration can give you the stunning smile you have dreamed of.

While we do accept most dental insurance, dental implant costs are often not covered. However, your plan may cover other parts of treatment, like the restoration. We will verify your coverage to maximize your benefits.
To help cover other expenses or to help if you do not have dental insurance, we accept CareCredit®, Sunbit, and Proceed financing. This allows patients to break the cost of their treatment into affordable monthly payments. We also offer an in-house dental saving plan that includes a discount on needed treatments.

With proper care, your implants can last a lifetime, while your restoration can last for 15 years or more. Maintaining your restored smile is easy. Here are a few tips to keep your smile healthy and beautiful for years to come:
Maintain Good Oral Hygiene
Treat your implant-supported restoration just like natural teeth. Brush twice a day for at least two minutes each. Don't forget to floss.
