Dental implants are titanium posts placed in the jawbone to replace missing tooth roots; once the bone bonds to the implant, a custom crown (or bridge/denture) is attached so the tooth looks and functions like natural. At AVMSmiles, suitability is confirmed with an exam and CBCT 3D scan, placement is done under local anesthesia, and a healing cap or temporary tooth is provided when indicated; final teeth are typically fitted after healing, with early/next-day or 3–7-day loading offered only when bone and bite allow. You’ll receive a written plan with itemized costs before we begin, guidance on home care and reviews, and options such as single-tooth, multiple, or full-arch solutions.
