Implants are artificial tooth roots made of titanium that are surgically placed into the jawbone. The implant screw serves as an anchor for crowns or bridges.
Complimentary exam which includes comprehensive assessment of dental implant placement, X-rays including 3D CT scan, and personalized treatment options.
The titanium implant is surgically placed into the jawbone using local anesthetic. Dr. Habib performs flapless surgery, which does not require any incisions or stitching of the gums and allows for less swelling and faster healing. Depending on the diagnosis, we offer immediate implant placement at the time of the extraction. At this point, a temporary restoration may be provided, especially if you are replacing a tooth that’s visible in your smile.
Impressions are done three months after the surgery when the implant is fully integrated into the bone. This includes taking a mold of the surrounding structures in order to create a customized crown or bridge that captures the exact dimensions and contours necessary for a precise fitting.At this time, we will choose the shade and go over desired esthetics for the permanent restoration.
The abutment and crown are inserted two weeks following the impression. The abutment, which connects the crown to the implant, is screwed in. This serves as the support for the crown which is then cemented or screwed onto the abutment, depending on the patient and tooth structure.
We accept a variety of payment options for your convenience, including cash, major credit/debit cards, personal checks, and HSA/FSA cards.
Payments are to be made at the time of services rendered. If any additional work is needed during the surgical process, you will be informed and payment must be made no more than seven days after treatment. Fees for restoration are due at the time of the impression.
As a courtesy to patients with dental insurance, we will be happy to complete the insurance claim forms for you to submit for your direct reimbursement once the work is completed. You are responsible for any services rendered, regardless of any future payment you might receive from your insurance company. We will not be responsible if your insurance denies a claim based on your coverage, as we cannot alter our treatments plans to fit within an insurance fee schedule.
