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.

It is a way to evaluate your overall health and determine how treatment can work. Sometimes that means preparing [...]
What Is a Roundhouse Bridge? Rethinking Denture Support With Dental Implants
Most improvements in dentistry do not come from starting over. They come from taking something that already works and asking how it can work better. A traditional denture does a lot.

What It Means To Have a Dentist in Atkins You Can Rely On
Oral health often sits outside the way people think about routine healthcare.

Mini Implants vs. Traditional Implants [Video Breakdown]
A dental implant is one of the most beneficial tooth-replacement options because it replaces a missing tooth at its root. The implant is placed in the jawbone and then used to support a crown, bridge, or denture. Other tooth replacement options can still restore a smile, and in some cases, they may be the right fit. But dental implants [...]
