Whether you need one implant or a full-arch solution, our Dental Implants team maps bone density and nerve position first, then builds a surgical guide around what your jaw can actually support.
Every Smile Center Dentistry office offering Dental Implants is held to the same four standards, verified before the office ever joins our network.
Surgical placement is performed under full malpractice coverage and current state licensure, verified before any procedure is scheduled.
Digital planning software lets us preview implant angle and depth on-screen before the surgical guide is even printed.
You get a written quote covering the implant, abutment, and crown stages before treatment starts — no per-visit surprises.
If an implant fails to integrate within the normal healing window, revision options are discussed at no additional consultation fee.
Every option below is available under the same upfront-pricing standard, whichever specific service ends up fitting your case.
For an isolated gap, we place a single implant post and let it heal for several months before attaching the final crown. Most single-tooth cases need two to three visits total, spaced around the healing timeline.
For patients missing most or all of their teeth, four to six strategically angled implants can anchor a full arch of fixed replacement teeth. The final, permanent bridge is fitted once the implants have fully integrated.
Ridge preservation grafting at the time of extraction helps prevent the bone loss that makes future implant placement harder. We'll tell you honestly if grafting is optional or necessary for your specific case.
Which approach we use depends on bone quality and where in the mouth the implant is going. We'll explain which method applies to your case and why during the planning visit.
Once an implant has integrated, it can support a single crown, a multi-tooth bridge, or a full removable or fixed denture. Impressions are taken digitally in most cases, avoiding the old-style tray and putty process.
Implants need their own maintenance routine, and we screen for peri-implantitis — inflammation around an implant — at every recall visit. We'll show you the specific home-care technique for your implant restoration.
No mystery about what happens between calling us and walking out with the problem addressed.
A quick call gets you booked for imaging and a first look at whether implants are the right fit.
The CBCT scan and a same-visit review let you see your own bone structure and hear the plan explained on-screen.
Surgery gets scheduled once you've reviewed and approved the written plan and price.
We track integration at set intervals and only proceed to the final restoration once the implant has properly fused.
We publish these as-is, because that's the only kind of review worth reading before booking Dental Implants.
“I'd put off replacing a molar for three years out of fear of surgery. The CBCT scan showed me exactly what was happening before anything was decided.”
“Full-arch implants gave my mother her bite back. The temporary teeth the same day as surgery made all the difference psychologically.”
“They explained bone grafting clearly instead of just adding it to the invoice. I appreciated knowing why it was actually necessary.”
“Recovery was easier than I expected. Mild soreness for two days, and the follow-up checks caught nothing unusual.”
“The quote covered every stage upfront, so there were no surprise charges when it came time for the crown months later.”
These are the questions Fort Myers Beach patients ask most before booking Dental Implants.
Single-tooth cases typically run three to six months including healing; full-arch cases can run longer depending on grafting needs.
Discomfort is typically less than patients expect — a few days of soreness rather than significant pain.
Failed integration is uncommon but possible; if it happens, we discuss revision options at no additional consultation charge.
Not every patient needs grafting; the CBCT scan tells us definitively before we recommend it.
Cost depends on how many implants and whether grafting is needed; you'll get a full written breakdown before committing.
The final crown is custom-shaded to match surrounding teeth, and most patients report it feels like their natural tooth within weeks.
If you're unsure whether your part of Fort Myers Beach is covered, a quick call settles it faster than searching online.
Our Dental Implants team serves Fort Myers Beach and the surrounding area, with CBCT imaging available on-site so scans don't require a separate trip. Parking and accessibility were considered when we set up our imaging suite for implant patients.
