If you are missing a single tooth—whether in the front or back, or if all teeth have been extracted and the area has healed—we can restore it within two appointments.

First, we take a cone beam scan and an impression, which we send to the laboratory to fabricate a surgical stent and a custom crown. Once we receive all necessary components from the lab, you return for the second appointment. The procedure involves standard local anesthesia, though sedation is available for patients with dental anxiety.

In just two visits, we can place your new tooth, fully functional and ready for use.

What Are Clear Aligners and Why Are They So Popular?

The number of people choosing clear aligners has soared in recent years, reshaping the way we think about orthodontics. But it raises a serious question: what is it about clear aligners that makes them so appealing? How can a series of thin plastic trays compete with the time-tested wires and brackets of traditional braces? At first glance, it seems [...]

Redefining Tooth Replacement With an Experienced Atkins Implant Dentist

True progress in dentistry starts with simple but powerful questions about how to remove barriers to care: Why should a solution that works for some not be available to everyone? Why should comfort, stability, and function feel out of reach when we have the tools to make them possible? Dentistry at its best looks for ways to remove barriers, [...]

Denture Stabilization Made Simple With Mini Dental Implants

A tent can provide shelter from both rain and sun. But it’s not the kind of structure anyone would call dependable. It does the job in fair weather, but once the wind picks up, the fabric rattles, the stakes loosen, and the whole setup feels unsteady. Traditional dentures work much the same way. They allow you to smile, speak, [...]

What To Expect With Mini Implants: Benefits, Process, and Results

Your smile is like a team where every player has a purpose. The front teeth are the quick passers that cut and tear food into smaller pieces. The molars are the powerful defenders that grind everything down, keeping your bite strong. The canines are the steady midfielders that guide the action and balance the load. Together, this lineup works [...]

The Case for Zirconia Teeth: Why They Offer a More Natural, Lasting Smile

At first glance, the word zirconia sounds like it belongs in the pages of a comic book or the script of a sci-fi movie. You can almost imagine it as the unbreakable alloy that fuels a superhero’s armor, or the mysterious crystal powering a starship’s engine. Think of vibranium in Black Panther, adamantium in X-Men, or even kyber crystals [...]

Stronger Smiles Start With Dental Implants in Russellville

You know that feeling when you’re trying to fix something, and deep down, you know your “solution” is really just buying time? Maybe you tightened a loose screw with a butter knife or coaxed a wobbly chair leg back into place with some old wood glue. It feels like a clever workaround. But in hindsight, it would’ve been better [...]

How Clear Aligners Like Invisalign Transform Smiles

When people talk about clear aligners, they often say Invisalign® without even thinking about it. The brand name has become so familiar that it is often used to describe the treatment itself, much like how some people say Band‑Aid® for adhesive bandages. That level of recognition is not accidental. Invisalign didn’t simply introduce a new way to straighten teeth. [...]

Same-Day Teeth: Skip the Wait and Start Smiling Sooner

The idea of same‑day teeth with dental implants almost feels like it bends the rules of what we have always believed about dentistry. For years, dental transformations have been measured in months, requiring multiple visits, long periods of healing, and the quiet patience of waiting for the final result. The thought of walking into a dental office and walking [...]
