Understand your options

A replacement that starts below the surface.

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

One missing tooth

A single implant can support a custom crown. This may replace a missing tooth without preparing neighboring teeth for a traditional bridge.

02

Several missing teeth

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

A larger change

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

Is implant treatment right for you?

You don’t need to know the answer before your first visit. A thoughtful evaluation is the place to start.

  • Your gums and bone: healthy supporting tissues and adequate bone help guide placement. Additional treatment may be needed first.
  • Your overall health: medical history, medications, and habits such as tobacco use can affect healing and treatment suitability.
  • Your goals and care routine: discuss eating, appearance, comfort, and the daily care an implant-supported restoration requires.

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

Clear steps. A plan at your pace.

Implant care usually happens in stages. We’ll explain the sequence, expected visits, and healing considerations before you move forward.

  1. Start with a conversation

    We review your concerns, medical history, oral health, and tooth-replacement goals. An examination and appropriate imaging help determine whether implants are suitable.

  2. Build your personal plan

    Your dentist discusses the proposed restoration, any care needed before placement, the expected stages, alternatives, and an individualized estimate.

  3. Place the implant and allow healing

    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.

  4. Restore your smile and keep it healthy

    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

Understand the investment before you decide.

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

Your dental implant questions, answered.

There is no one-size-fits-all treatment plan. Bring your questions—we’ll help you understand what fits your smile.

Am I a candidate for dental implants?

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.

How long does implant treatment take?

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.

Can implants replace more than one tooth?

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.

Will I need to care for an implant?

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.

How much do dental implants cost?

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.
