Dental Implants & Full-Arch Restoration
Dental Implants in Hollywood, FL
Titanium implants that replace single or multiple missing teeth, restoring full function and a natural look. They preserve the jawbone and, with proper care, can last a lifetime.
Overview
A permanent replacement that works like a natural tooth
A dental implant is a small titanium post placed in the jawbone where a tooth is missing. Over a few months the bone bonds to the implant, creating a stable root that supports a crown, a bridge or a full set of teeth.
Because the implant stands on its own, neighboring teeth do not need to be cut down the way they would for a traditional bridge. And because it stimulates the bone like a natural root, it helps prevent the bone loss that follows tooth loss.
This treatment may help if you have:
- Single missing tooth
- Several missing teeth
- A failing or loose bridge
- Teeth that cannot be saved
The Process
What to expect, step by step
- 01
Consultation & 3D imaging
We review your history, examine your mouth and take a CBCT scan to measure bone and map anatomy.
- 02
Digital treatment plan
Your implant position is planned digitally for a predictable, comfortable procedure.
- 03
Implant placement
The implant is placed under local anesthesia. When conditions allow, a temporary tooth is placed the same day.
- 04
Healing & final tooth
After the implant bonds with the bone, your restoring dentist attaches the permanent crown or bridge.
Benefits
Why patients choose implants
Looks and feels natural
Your new tooth is custom-shaped and color-matched, and it is fixed in place, so there is nothing to remove at night.
Protects your jawbone
An implant replaces the root as well as the crown, helping maintain bone volume and facial support over time.
Built to last
With good home care and regular checkups, implants are designed to be a long-term solution rather than a temporary fix.

BEFORE
AFTER Dental Implants: your questions, answered
General information to help you prepare. Your periodontist will recommend treatment based on your exam.
Dental implants are typically made from medical-grade titanium, a biocompatible material that integrates with natural bone. Titanium provides strength, stability, and long-term durability while minimising the risk of rejection or allergic reaction.
Implants are surgically positioned into the jawbone under local anaesthesia or sedation. After placement, the implant gradually integrates with the surrounding bone during a healing process called osseointegration.
Single implant placement usually takes one to two hours, depending on complexity. Surgical time varies based on bone condition, number of implants, and whether additional procedures are required.
Healing typically takes three to six months. During this period, the implant bonds securely with the jawbone, creating a stable foundation for the final crown or prosthetic restoration.
Osseointegration is the biological process where the implant fuses directly with the surrounding jawbone. This integration creates a strong, stable base capable of supporting normal biting and chewing forces.
Smokers may qualify for implants, but smoking increases the risk of healing complications and implant failure. A detailed consultation helps evaluate individual risk and determine suitability.
Implant failure is uncommon but may occur due to infection or inadequate integration. In many cases, the implant can be removed, the site treated, and replacement considered after healing.
Yes, implant crowns are custom fabricated to match surrounding teeth in shape, size, and color. This ensures natural appearance, functional bite alignment, and long-term durability.
Yes, implants stimulate the jawbone through functional chewing pressure. This stimulation helps maintain bone density and reduces progressive bone deterioration associated with missing teeth.
Costs vary depending on implant number, bone condition, and restoration type. A consultation provides accurate evaluation, imaging, and a detailed cost estimate based on individual treatment needs.
