What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are unlike any other form of tooth replacement. While dental bridges restore the visible portions of teeth, dental implants work from the roots up. With a titanium, screw-like post that mimics the function of tooth roots, a metal abutment that holds the restoration to the post, and a customized crown, bridge, or denture resting on top, it serves as a complete restorative solution for individuals with tooth loss.
The 4-Step Dental Implant Process
Dental implants tend to be more resilient and last longer than alternatives like dentures or dental bridges because of their unique placement in your jawbone. However, they’re also the only restorations that require a multi-stage process that spans several months to complete from start to finish.
At our practice in Mesa, Dr. Julian has the advanced training and state-of-the-art equipment to complete each step in the office, including oral surgery, to streamline your experience.

Benefits of Dental Implants
While there are still other tooth replacement options available on the market (i.e., dental bridges), newer technologies and techniques make it possible for our team to provide more updated and longer-lasting approaches. With dental implants, you can expect to enjoy a stronger bite force and chewing power, greater jawbone stimulation, improved oral health, a more vibrant and younger-looking appearance, and remarkable confidence that will help you to make a good first impression.
Who Dental Implants Can Help
Dental implants can be an ideal option if you’re an adult who is missing one, multiple, or an entire row of teeth. No matter the reason for your tooth loss, our team can establish a plan that will put your oral health on the right track so that you can benefit from these long-lasting prosthetics. During your consultation, we will go over which steps need to be taken to prepare you for implant placement as well as discuss how many posts you will need to restore your smile.
Missing One Tooth
Using a single dental implant post, metal abutment, and customized crown, we can replace one missing tooth along the lower or upper arch of teeth. While a dental bridge might have been the go-to solution in the past, we no longer have to alter healthy abutment teeth but instead can focus solely on the vacant socket, leaving you with a fully restored, fully functional smile.
Missing Multiple Teeth
If you have a gap in your smile that is the result of multiple missing teeth, we can use two dental implant posts and a customized bridge to fix the problem. Once your implants fuse with the surrounding bone tissues, we can secure a dental bridge on top, allowing your jawbone to continue receiving the stimulation it needs to avoid facial sagging over time.
Missing All of Your Teeth
Even an entire row of missing teeth can be replaced with the help of dental implants. Using between 4 and 6 titanium posts, we can position them along the jawbone before attaching a removable or fixed denture on top. It’s also possible for us to use only four dental implants to support a custom denture, especially if you do not possess enough jawbone density.
Understanding the Cost of Dental Implants
It’s no secret that dental implants are more expensive than dental bridges, but if you look at the comparison in cost over time, you’ll find that you will save by choosing this form of superior tooth replacement. With dental implants, you don’t have to buy denture adhesives or undergo regular relinements or replacements, both of which are common with more traditional methods of treatment. Our team will go over the expected cost with you during your consultation as well as find ways to lower your out-of-pocket expenses.
