Types of Dental Implants Available
Single Tooth Implants
A single dental implant replaces a single missing tooth with a titanium post and a custom crown. It is the closest option to a natural tooth, preserves adjacent teeth, and prevents bone loss.
Implant-Supported Bridges
Two implant posts anchor a bridge of replacement teeth for multiple adjacent missing teeth, eliminating the need to alter healthy neighboring teeth, unlike traditional bridges.
Full Arch Implants
For patients missing an entire arch, full arch implant options provide a fixed, non-removable solution anchored by strategically placed posts. This is often coordinated with our full-mouth reconstruction services.
Dental Implants vs. Dentures or Bridges
Las Vegas patients prefer tooth implants over bridges and dentures because they offer long-term comfort and function:
- Fixed in place permanently (no shifting or adhesives required)
- Directly stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss.
- Do not require altering healthy neighboring teeth.
- Can last a lifetime with proper care (versus 7-15 years for dentures or bridges).
Implants are not right for every patient; candidacy depends on factors such as active gum disease, insufficient bone volume, and certain medical conditions. Our team evaluates each case individually to determine the best fit.
How Long Do Dental Implants Last?
Titanium posts can last a lifetime with proper hygiene. Crowns generally last 10–20 years. Maintenance includes professional cleanings, avoiding tobacco, and using a nightguard for teeth grinding.
What to Expect During Implant Treatment
Consultation and Imaging
We assess oral health, bone density, and medical history. Imaging maps the placement site; no surgery occurs during this visit.
Implant Placement
The titanium post is placed under local anesthetic. Osseointegration occurs during healing while a temporary restoration protects the site.
Crown Placement and Follow-Up
Following osseointegration, your custom crown is attached and bite alignment verified before beginning your maintenance schedule.
FAQs:
Are implants painful?
Placement is performed under local anesthesia. Most patients report pressure rather than pain, and post-procedure soreness is manageable with over-the-counter relief.
How long do implants last?
The titanium post typically lasts a lifetime, while crowns last 10–20 years. Longevity requires regular cleanings, avoiding tobacco, and using a nightguard.
Who is a candidate for dental implants?
Healthy adults with adequate bone volume and gum health are ideal candidates. Those with periodontal disease or bone loss may require preliminary treatments.
What is the cost of dental implants in Las Vegas?
Costs vary based on the number of implants, the type of restoration, and the complexity. We provide a personalized cost breakdown during your consultation.
