Dental Implants
The best option to replace a tooth, a section of teeth, or full-mouth restoration for a healthy smile!
What is a Dental Implant?
A dental implant is a replacement for the roots of a tooth which is done in two steps.
Firstly, a small titanium “root replacement” is placed where the root of the tooth used to be. Titanium is used because the body accepts it easily and it fuses into the jaw bone and provides a solid base onto which a replacement tooth can be placed.
Once the implant has “settled” a permanent new tooth is placed onto it.
Dental implants have a lot of strength and durability and once the procedure is complete you can eat as if you had your natural tooth.
Before we had implants, replacing a tooth required connecting the crown to the teeth on either side. By using an implant the surrounding teeth are unaffected and it can help prevent the bone loss and movement of other teeth that can occur if it is not replaced.
Dental Implants make it easy to replace teeth!
Whether you are missing a single tooth (or more than one) from a recent extraction, decay or past injury or you currently have dentures and are looking for a more comfortable and permanent teeth replacement solution, we can help!
The good news is, thanks to the ease, flexibility of use, and long-lasting durability of dental implants your healthy smile and bite can finally be restored.
Dental implants can not only be used to replace missing teeth, but they can also be implemented to permanently mount dentures as well. Dental implants offer a simple solution to replace missing teeth in a natural and comfortable way that’ll instantly improve your smile and help you eat comfortably and confidently at the same time. In fact, once dental implants are inserted and your new artificial teeth are put into place, you’ll be able to smile, talk and eat as if you had your natural teeth.
Thanks to the rapid advancements in modern-day dental technology, the painless procedure for inserting dental implants has not only become much easier for patients, but the implants have been carefully fabricated from only the strongest materials that are built to last.
No matter if you need a single tooth replacement, a fixed dental bridge, or desire a full set of permanent dentures – our dental implant options will give you the solid foundation you need for that perfect smile.
We use solid titanium dental implants that fuse securely to the jawbone. Titanium is not only super strong, but it’s a unique metal that’s naturally accepted by the body. Once the new dental implants have safely healed and fused tightly with the jawbone, then the replacement tooth, dental bridge (multiple teeth) or a full set of dentures can be permanently attached. This entire process will vary per patient depending on how many dental implants are needed.
The greatest advantage of having your dental implants done here at our local practice in beautiful San Antonio, is that we’ll be able to give you the personal care, individual in-person attention, and our exceptional follow-up service – every step of the way.

Dental implant pricing will vary depending on both the quality of the implant (or implants) and the number of implants placed during the procedure.
We can offer you superior service all in one clinic.
Dental Implants are used for…
Whether you need to replace one tooth, a section of teeth, or you are considering full-mouth restoration, dental implants are your best option.
Crowns
This is the easiest way to replace a lost tooth. A single dental implant is a simple procedure and you can have your tooth back very easily. The implant is placed in the mouth. After the implant settles, the dentist will then place a special type of crown over it.
Bridges
Here implants can be used to replace several teeth in a row. This is called a “fixed bridge”. In this case, implants are placed and then a series of crowns, which are connected, are locked in using implants. In this way, a series of missing teeth can be replaced with just two implants.
Full Restoration
These are a permanent alternative to removable dentures for people who are missing most or all of their teeth or have very advanced tooth decay. We place the implants and can then use an existing denture, or if no denture, we make a new denture to fit the implants.
