A stable foundation for a replacement tooth
What is a dental implant?
An implant is a small post placed in the jawbone to support a replacement tooth. Once the area has healed, a custom crown can restore the space left by a missing tooth.
The goal is a replacement that looks natural and helps you chew comfortably. Whether an implant is right for you starts with an exam and a conversation about your health and goals.

Questions worth asking.
Am I a candidate for dental implants?
That depends on your gum health, available bone and medical history. Your consultation is the place to understand whether an implant fits your needs or whether another option makes more sense.
How long does treatment take?
Implants usually need time to heal before the final replacement tooth is attached. Treatment can take several months, and grafting or other care may add time. Your timeline will depend on your individual plan.
What if I have been missing a tooth for years?
It may still be possible to replace it with an implant. We need to evaluate the bone and surrounding teeth before recommending treatment. Some people need additional treatment first.
How much will it cost?
The cost depends on the replacement teeth and any additional care you need, such as an extraction or bone graft. We will discuss the proposed treatment and costs before you decide.
Can I use insurance or financing?
Coverage varies by plan. Our team can review your benefits. Shalom Dental offers CareCredit financing, subject to approval and the lender’s terms.
Will an implant last forever?
An implant is a long-term treatment, not a lifetime guarantee. Home care, regular dental visits and your overall health all matter. Complications or replacement can still occur.
