Understand your options
A dental implant is an artificial tooth root placed in the jawbone. It provides support for a replacement tooth or teeth—a crown, bridge, or denture—rather than replacing only the visible part of your smile.
Bencaz Family Dentistry offers implant placement and restoration. The right approach depends on how many teeth are missing, the health of your mouth, and the function you want to restore.
01
A single implant can support a custom crown. This may replace a missing tooth without preparing neighboring teeth for a traditional bridge.
02
An implant-supported bridge can replace a group of missing teeth. The number and placement of implants depend on your bone support and bite.
03
Implants may support a denture when many or all teeth are missing. Your dentist will explain the restoration options and whether they fit your needs.
A decision made together
You don’t need to know the answer before your first visit. A thoughtful evaluation is the place to start.
Implant placement is a surgical procedure. Your dentist will review possible risks, including infection, implant failure, and injury to nearby structures, as well as alternatives such as a bridge or removable denture.
Know what comes next
Implant care usually happens in stages. We’ll explain the sequence, expected visits, and healing considerations before you move forward.
We review your concerns, medical history, oral health, and tooth-replacement goals. An examination and appropriate imaging help determine whether implants are suitable.
Your dentist discusses the proposed restoration, any care needed before placement, the expected stages, alternatives, and an individualized estimate.
The implant is surgically placed in the jaw. Healing often takes several months as the bone integrates with it. The timing and temporary-tooth options vary by case.
Once appropriate healing has occurred, the connector and final crown, bridge, or denture complete the restoration. Daily care and follow-up visits remain important.
A clear path forward
Your estimate should reflect your entire treatment plan—not a one-size-fits-all number. Implant placement, the final restoration, and any preparatory care can all affect the cost.
Our team can help you understand available benefits and discuss payment options. Insurance coverage varies by plan and procedure; financing is subject to lender approval and terms.
Real words. Real reassurance.

A little clarity helps
There is no one-size-fits-all treatment plan. Bring your questions—we’ll help you understand what fits your smile.
An examination and a review of your medical history are needed to answer that question. Your dentist will assess your gums, bone support, overall health, and treatment goals. Some people need additional care before placement, and implants are not suitable for everyone.
Treatment is often completed in stages, with a healing period that may last several months after placement. The number of implants, any preparatory treatment, and how your body heals affect the timing. Your dentist will outline the expected sequence for your situation.
Yes. Depending on your needs, implants can support a single crown, a bridge, or a denture. The number and position of implants and the type of restoration are determined during treatment planning.
Yes. Daily cleaning and regular dental visits are important for the gum tissue, bone, and restoration around an implant. Implants and their restorations can develop problems or need repair, so they are not a maintenance-free or guaranteed lifetime solution.
There is no single fee that fits every case. The number of implants, the restoration, any preparatory procedures, and follow-up needs all affect the total. We will discuss an individualized estimate and available payment options, including CareCredit and Cherry, before treatment decisions are made.
