Dental Implants in Houston, TX

A Permanent Solution for Missing Teeth

When it comes to replacing missing teeth, dental implants are the gold standard for restoring function, aesthetics, and confidence. Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, implants are securely anchored into the jawbone, offering a natural feel, long-term stability, and unmatched durability. Whether you need to replace a single tooth, multiple teeth, or a full arch, dental implants provide a lifelike solution that allows you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.

What Are Dental Implants?

A dental implant is a small titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone to serve as an artificial tooth root. Over time, the implant fuses with the bone (a process called osseointegration), creating a stable foundation for a custom-designed crown, bridge, or full arch prosthesis.

Types of Dental Implant Restorations:

Single Tooth Implant – Replaces one missing tooth with a custom crown.
Implant-Supported Bridge – Restores multiple missing teeth using fewer implants.
Full-Arch Implants (All-on-4) – Replaces an entire upper or lower set of teeth with just four to six implants, providing a secure, non-removable alternative to dentures.

The Dental Implant Process

Consultation & Treatment Planning

Your journey begins with a comprehensive evaluation at Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons of Houston. We use advanced 3D imaging to assess bone density and determine the ideal implant placement.

Implant Placement Surgery

• If necessary, any damaged or failing teeth will be extracted first.
• The titanium implant post is placed into the jawbone with precision and minimal discomfort.
• Over the next 3–6 months, the implant integrates with the bone, ensuring a strong foundation.

Restoring Your Smile

• Once healing is complete, your restorative dentist will design and place a custom-made crown, bridge, or full-arch restoration securely onto the implant posts. This final restoration is crafted to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, ensuring optimal function and aesthetics.
• Your new teeth will look, feel, and function just like natural teeth, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence—without the concerns of slipping or discomfort associated with traditional dentures.
