Single Tooth Implants
-
A Seamless Option for a Complete Smile
A single tooth implant is a permanent and natural-looking way to replace one missing tooth. Designed to function like your natural tooth root, the implant provides stability and strength while supporting a custom-made crown that restores your smile’s appearance and function.
Whether you lost a tooth due to injury, decay, or extraction, a single implant helps maintain your bite alignment, prevent bone loss, and protect the surrounding teeth from shifting.

How a Single Tooth Implant Works
A single implant consists of three main parts:
- Titanium Implant Post – Acts as an artificial root that bonds securely with your jawbone through a natural healing process called osseointegration.
- Abutment Connector – Attaches to the implant and holds your restoration in place.
- Custom Dental Crown – Crafted to match the color, shape, and size of your surrounding teeth for a natural finish.
Once the implant has integrated with your bone, the crown is attached, completing your restoration with a comfortable and lifelike result.

What to Expect During Treatment
The process typically involves several visits:
- Consultation and Planning – We evaluate your oral health and take digital scans to plan precise implant placement.
- Implant Placement – The titanium post is placed into your jawbone under local anesthesia for comfort.
- Healing and Integration – Over several months, the implant bonds naturally with the bone to ensure stability.
- Crown Placement – A custom crown is attached to restore your smile fully.
You can expect a comfortable experience and long-lasting results with proper care.
