About This Procedure
Dental implants are the gold standard for replacing missing teeth. A small titanium post is surgically placed into the jawbone, where it fuses with the bone through a process called osseointegration to create a strong, permanent foundation. Once healed, an abutment and custom crown are attached to complete the restoration. Implants preserve bone, protect neighboring teeth from shifting, and restore full chewing function and confidence. Dr. Yant uses 3D imaging and digital planning to precisely position each implant for optimal long-term success. Whether you need a single implant, multiple implants to support a bridge, or full-arch reconstruction, Dr. Yant will develop a personalized treatment plan in coordination with your restorative dentist.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care and regular maintenance, dental implants can last a lifetime. The implant itself is made of titanium, which fuses with your jawbone. The crown on top may need replacement after 10 to 15 years due to normal wear.
Am I a candidate for dental implants?
Most adults with good general health are candidates for dental implants. You need adequate bone to support the implant, but if bone has been lost, grafting procedures can rebuild it. Conditions like uncontrolled diabetes or heavy smoking may require additional evaluation.
How much do dental implants cost in Colorado?
The cost of a dental implant varies depending on the complexity of your case and whether bone grafting is needed. Yant Perio accepts insurance, which can offset a portion of the cost. We provide a clear treatment estimate before any work begins.
Does getting a dental implant hurt?
Implant placement is performed under local anesthesia, and most patients report that the procedure is more comfortable than they expected. Post-operative discomfort is typically mild and manageable with over-the-counter pain medication for a few days.
