What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to replace missing teeth. Whether single, multiple, implant-supported, or full-mouth dental implants, they mimic the natural functionality of teeth with a screw, abutment, and crown. Unlike dentures or bridges, implants fuse with your jawbone in a process called osseointegration, which prevents bone loss. The screw helps stabilize the bone structure, while the abutment is a connector piece that securely holds the screw and dental crown in place. They act as artificial tooth roots, providing a stable foundation for:

Types of Dental Implant Solutions
At Nevada Oral & Facial Surgery, we offer customized implant treatments to fit every patient’s needs:
Ideal for replacing one missing tooth, blending seamlessly with your natural smile.
An implant-supported bridge is a fixed solution for multiple missing teeth in a row. Unlike traditional bridges, implant supported versions don’t rely on neighboring teeth, providing better stability and preventing bone loss.
All-on-4® implants implants are a full-arch restoration solution that places four implants per jaw to support a full set of teeth.
For severe jawbone loss, anchoring into the cheekbone instead of the jaw.
How Are the Implants Going To Be Placed?
The implant process is completed in stages for optimal safety and the best results.
A 3D scan evaluates your jawbone structure and provides precise placement mapping.
The titanium post is placed under IV sedation or local anesthesia for
maximum comfort.
Over three to six months, the implant fuses with your bone
for a secure fit and natural feel.
A custom-made crown, bridge, or full-arch prosthetic is attached,
completing your smile.
Our techniques are minimally invasive, prioritizing your comfort and safety. And our
expert team will be here to guide you every step of the way.

What to Expect with Dental Implants
-
1Dental Implant Consultation & Planning
We’ll begin your teeth replacement in Henderson, NV with a comprehensive discussion addressing your dental and medical history. During your consultation, we’ll obtain X-rays and digital diagnostics to assess your oral health and see if you need additional procedures such as bone grafting or a tooth extraction. We’ll discuss your smile aspirations and what you want from your treatment outcome. With this information, we’ll create a customized treatment plan we will follow when placing your dental implants.
-

Surgery Day
Once your treatment plan is completed, we will schedule you for your dental implant surgery. Our oral surgeons will begin your dental implant surgery by placing one or more dental implants into the predetermined spot(s) at a 45-degree angle within your jawbone. If your surgery calls for one tooth replacement in Las Vegas, NV, you will leave the same day with your dental crown. If your surgery is for full-mouth dental implants, we’ll attach your temporary restoration same-day! This restoration will allow you to enjoy your brand-new smile’s benefits while your mouth heals.

Healing & Final Restorations
As with any oral surgery, you may experience discomfort, swelling, and slight bruising at the implant site. Before you leave, we’ll provide and review important aftercare instructions to help ensure proper healing and prevent complications.
Over the next 4-6 months, dental implants will fuse with your jawbone through osseointegration. Once complete, your implants will be strong enough to support your final restoration. Once your prosthesis is placed, you can enjoy a life without dietary restrictions, incomplete smiles, and self-consciousness. You’ll be able to smile confidently and enjoy life with a complete smile for decades to come!
What To Expect After the Dental Implant Procedure
Your journey to a restored smile doesn’t end when you leave our office. We’re with you every step of the way to ensure a smooth recovery and a successful outcome. While the recovery timeline varies, here’s a general overview of what you can expect.
First Few Weeks
During the first few weeks, it’s normal to experience mild swelling and discomfort at the implant site. We’ll provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to help manage this, including guidance on pain relief and oral hygiene. You should stick to a diet of soft foods and avoid chewing in the surgical area to promote proper healing.
Over the next three to six months, a crucial process called osseointegration will occur, where
the implant gradually fuses with your jawbone. This makes the implant a strong, permanent
anchor for your new teeth. We’ll schedule follow-up visits to monitor your healing and ensure
everything is progressing as planned. Once the implant is fully integrated, your custom crown,
bridge, or denture will be securely attached.
With proper care and regular check-ups, your new smile can last for decades to come.
We Offer a Metal-Free Alternative
To Titanium Implants
While titanium implants are the gold standard in implant dentistry for their strength and durability, we understand they’re not the right fit for everyone. We proudly offer zirconia dental implants for our patients with metal sensitivities or those seeking a completely metal-free alternative.
These high-quality ceramic implants are biocompatible and hypoallergenic and offer a natural-looking, holistic option without compromising strength or longevity. Whether you’re unable to tolerate titanium or simply prefer a metal-free solution, zirconia implants provide a safe, strong, and aesthetically pleasing option for restoring your smile.

Who is a candidate for dental implants?

- Have adequate jawbone, or can be considered for bone grafting or a sinus lift
- Are an adult with fully developed jaws

With specialist training, advanced imaging, and reconstructive techniques (including bone grafting, sinus lifts, All-on-4®, and zygomatic implants), plus a depth of experience—more than 7,000 arches placed—we are often able to offer implant solutions in challenging cases. Your surgeon will review your scan and medical history and recommend the safest, most effective pathway to restore your smile. Learn more about dental implant candidacy here.
