Rebuild Your Smile With Our Range of Solutions
Dental implants are prosthetic tooth roots that fuse to your jawbone and serve as a base for several types of replacement teeth. At The Implant Center at North Oaks Dental, you'll find numerous ways to revive your smile using teeth implants. No matter which treatment you choose, we offer a guarantee for our work. Plus, we use modern technology, including a 3-D CT scanner, to plan for your treatments. It ensures a successful procedure and long-term results.
Depending on your unique smile needs, we may recommend:
- Single-Implant Crown - We can attach a beautiful new crown to an implant to fill in your smile and make chewing easier.
- Implant-Supported Bridge - This type of bridge anchors to two or more implants and can replace several missing teeth in a row.
- Implant Dentures - For superior fit and stability, we can anchor your new dentures to a bar that is secured to implants. They will stay firmly in place, so you won't need to worry about them coming out and embarrassing you.
- Removable Implant Dentures - Rather than relying on suction and adhesives, your new dentures will attach to implants using a system of snaps and balls. They'll stay put when you want them to but will remove easily for cleaning.
- Full Arch on 4 Implants - Using only four teeth implants, we can anchor an entire arch of natural-looking, fixed replacement teeth.
- Full Arch on 6 Implants - Using the same method as full arch on 4, we'll place six implants per arch for extra stability.
- Mini Implants - Similar in shape and function to standard implants, these implants require less bone to fuse with and allow for faster healing.
No reason to feel anxious about your appointment! You can choose from our sedation options if you're nervous about your procedure. We also have headphones and music available to block out the sounds of our equipment.
Achieve a Perfect Smile With a 3-Step Full-Arch Procedure
Full-mouth dental implants are custom-made for each patient's unique oral health requirements. We offer a friendly yet professional atmosphere where patients are greeted promptly with a smile. We pride ourselves on little to no wait times. As soon as you arrive at our office for a consultation, you will begin speaking with our treatment coordinator, Nicole, who has been an integral part of the implant process for more than 10 years. We will discuss your oral health concerns, dental issues, and what you want from your treatment. After speaking with Nicole, Dr. Daboul will come in and begin explaining a treatment plan based on your smile goals. He will obtain X-rays and other digital images that highlight the unique features of your oral arch.
After receiving your personalized treatment plan using cutting-edge technology, you'll return for your implant treatment. Dr. Daboul will perform your dental implant surgery with the help of guided surgery technology and sedation dentistry. With four to six dental implants placed into your jawbone, you will receive optimal support and limit bone recession. A temporary set of teeth will be attached so you can enjoy the benefits of your dental implants immediately. The dental implants will fuse with your jawbone through a process called osseointegration. Once healed, you'll come in for your final appointment to have your permanent restoration placed. Our team will ensure that your final restoration fits seamlessly and comfortably, so you can enjoy your new smile with confidence!
The Superior Tooth Replacement Option
Shame, self-consciousness, and embarrassment are a natural part of missing teeth. More important, however, is the fact that your health can quickly deteriorate as a result of the buildup of inflammatory bacteria in the empty tooth sockets. When this happens, vital jaw and facial bone tissue is destroyed, and the risk of both oral and physical disease increases.
Fortunately, even the worst cases of lost or decaying teeth can be permanently fixed with dental implants. Dental implants restore teeth to nearly 99 percent of their original function while revitalizing oral function and delivering a truly world-class smile. In just a single visit to The Implant Center at North Oaks Dental, our implant specialist, Dr. Alvin Daboul, and our experienced team can give you a vastly improved quality of life - and a brand-new smile you'll be proud to show off.
The Characteristics of Dental Implants
The implant post, the abutment, and the restoration (prosthetic tooth) are the three main parts that make up a complete dental implant. Even for individuals who are missing all their teeth, full-mouth dental implants are by far the best tooth replacement option. They help preserve the integrity of the jawbone (unlike dentures, which accelerate bone loss) and will never move or slip over time.
A trained implant dentist like Dr. Daboul and state-of-the-art equipment are necessary for the long-term success and osseointegration of dental implants. Depending on the specific needs and oral health situation of the patient, our team provides a variety of dental implant restoration options. All our procedures use cutting-edge technology to help speed up the healing process and guarantee decades of reliable, functional use.

Common Questions About Dental Implants
How old do you need to be to get dental implants?
Before you can get dental implants, we need to make sure that all your teeth, jaw, and bones have finished developing. The particular age is different for each person, but in general, this will happen in the late teens or early 20s. We can take 3-D images, perform an exam, and take a thorough medical history to determine if your mouth is ready to receive dental implants.
Can dental implants be removed?
While implants can technically be removed, there would most likely never be a reason to remove them. The dental implants themselves fuse and become one with your jawbone, potentially lasting for decades or even the rest of your life. The artificial teeth we attach to them usually last for at least five to seven years, after which they may need replacement.
Are dental implants covered by insurance?
Insurance coverage varies widely, from carrier to carrier or even from plan to plan offered by the same carrier. We'll help you research your plan to determine if any part of your dental implant treatment is covered. Implants are considered a major procedure, and few plans cover more than 50 percent of the cost. We also accept several different payment methods for out-of-pocket costs, including third-party financing and in-house finance plans.
