Dental Implant Services
A patient might require one or more Individual dental implants if the patient is missing a single tooth or multiple non-consecutive teeth. Each individual dental implant consists of the anchor or implant portion of the dental implant and a cap or crown.
Also referred to as snap-on dentures, overdentures are similar to traditional dentures because they can be easily removed for cleaning and maintenance.
Fixed Teeth (All-On-Four, Six, or Eight)
Rather than replacing each individual missing tooth with an individual implant, the all-on-four treatment concept replaces an entire row of teeth and anchors them on just four (or more) dental implants.
ACCEPTED INSURANCES
Insurance has two major benefits for the patient: a discounted price on services (resulting in a lower out of pocket), as well as offering to cover a portion of the cost of services rendered. When we are in-network with your insurance provider, you are able to utilize the maximum benefits. We accept over 20 insurances.
