What Are Dental Implants?

A dental implant is a small titanium post placed into the jawbone to replace a missing tooth root. Over time, the implant fuses with the bone through osseointegration, creating a stable foundation for a custom crown, bridge, or denture.

Because implants replace the root, they help preserve the jawbone and provide the closest replacement to a natural tooth.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are dental implants, and how do they work?

A dental implant is a titanium post placed in the jawbone to replace a missing tooth root. Over a period of months, the bone fuses to the implant through a process called osseointegration. A custom crown, bridge, or denture is then attached on top. The result functions, looks, and feels like a natural tooth and preserves bone in a way that no other tooth replacement option does.

How long do dental implants last?

Dental implants are designed to be long-term solutions. In healthy patients, the success rate is approximately 98%, and implants have a track record of lasting 30 or more years. The prosthetic tooth placed on top may eventually show wear and need replacement, but the implant post itself is designed to be permanent.

How much do dental implants cost in Charlotte, NC?

The cost depends on how many teeth are being replaced, whether preparatory procedures like bone grafting are needed, and the type of restoration. We provide a full cost breakdown at your consultation. Some insurance plans cover a portion of implant treatment, and financing options are available.

Are dental implants painful?

Implant placement is performed under local anesthesia. Most patients report that the discomfort after surgery is manageable with prescribed or over-the-counter medication and less significant than they expected. Recovery typically involves a few days of soreness that gradually improves.

Who is a good candidate for dental implants near me?

Most people who are missing teeth are potential candidates for implants. Ideal candidates have adequate bone at the implant site, healthy or treatable gum tissue, and good general health. Patients who have been told they're not candidates due to bone loss should still get an evaluation since bone grafting can make implants possible for many of them.

What is the best dentist for dental implants in Charlotte, NC?

For implant placement, seeing a periodontist gives you a specialist whose training is specifically focused on the bone and gum tissue that implants depend on. At CharlottePerio, all implants are placed by board-certified periodontists with decades of combined experience in both routine and complex implant cases.
