The dental implant process
The entire dental implant process will typically require multiple visits to our Houston office. Each patient begins with an initial consultation with one of our dentists, where they’ll discuss your smile goals, evaluate your oral health, and determine if dental implants are the best treatment option. Once implants are agreed upon, we’ll schedule the simple implant procedure.
Before your procedure begins, we’ll provide patients with sedation dentistry to ensure a comfortable and pain-free treatment. Your dentist will first create a small cut into the gums. With the help of various dental tools, we’ll insert the implant post into your jawbone and stitch the incision closed. You’ll be sent home to heal and allow the implant to naturally integrate before returning for a final appointment.
After three to six months of healing, you’ll return to our Houston dental office again. We’ll place your custom restoration of choice and you’ll have achieved a brand-new, beautiful smile. The entire process may differ depending on what dental implant treatment you’ve chosen.
OUR TOOTH IMPLANT TREATMENTS
We understand that every individual has different oral health needs. That’s why we provide multiple dental implant treatments.

Hybrid implants, or hybrid dentures, are an excellent choice for patients missing an entire arch of teeth. A set number of implants are anchored into the jawbone and then a custom set of dentures is attached on top, providing patients with a natural appearance and a fully functional smile.
ALL-ON-4
All-on-4 replaces an entire arch of missing teeth by placing four implants into the jawbone. From there, a custom restoration is attached to the implant posts, giving patients a complete and healthy smile.

DENTAL IMPLANT CANDIDACY
Most individuals missing one or more teeth are candidates for dental implants.

- Healthy gums
- Adequate jawbone density
- In good overall health
- Committed to long-term dental hygiene
THE COSTS OF DENTAL IMPLANT TREATMENT
The cost of your dental implant treatment will vary based on certain factors. Factors including the type of implant used, the number of implants needed, and the location of the implant procedure will play a role in determining the total dental implant cost.
In many cases, a portion of the costs of dental implants is covered by insurance. Often insurance providers will cover some or all of the dental implant procedure if it’s required due to an accident or injury causing the missing tooth. If you’re unsure what your insurance coverage looks like, we may be able to help you find out. Give our Houston office a call at (713) 691-8880.
What are dental implants?
Dental implants are prostheses that replace a tooth from root to crown. Implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone for maximum strength and stability. After these posts naturally integrate into the jawbone, they’re topped with a natural-looking porcelain crown, dental bridge, or even a set of dentures.
There are three main parts of an implant:
The Implant
The titanium post that serves as the new tooth root and is permanently placed into the jawbone.
The Abutment
The Restoration
