What are dental implants?
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to replace missing tooth roots. Once placed, the implant naturally fuses with the bone through a biological process called osseointegration. After healing, a custom-made crown, bridge, or prosthetic is attached to restore full appearance and function.
A complete dental implant system consists of three parts: the implant post (titanium root), the abutment (connector piece), and the crown (the visible tooth replacement).
Benefits of dental implants
Implants provide unmatched benefits compared to other tooth replacement options.
Permanent Replacement
Designed to last decades — and often a lifetime with proper care.
Natural Look & Function
Custom designed to match the color, shape, and size of natural teeth.
Prevents Bone Loss
Implants stimulate the jawbone and prevent the deterioration that follows tooth loss.
Restores Chewing
Eat normally without restrictions once implants are fully healed.
Protects Adjacent Teeth
Unlike bridges, implants do not require grinding down surrounding teeth.
Speech & Confidence
Implants eliminate the slipping associated with dentures, improving speech clarity and confidence.
Types of implants we offer
We provide multiple implant solutions depending on your needs.
Single Tooth Implants
Replace one missing tooth without affecting adjacent teeth.
Multiple Tooth Implants
Used when several teeth are missing in different areas of the mouth.
Implant-Supported Bridges
Used when multiple adjacent teeth are missing and require support.
Full-Arch Implants
Designed to replace an entire upper or lower set of teeth.
All-on-4 Implants
A full-mouth restoration using four strategically placed implants to support a full arch of prosthetic teeth.
Who is a candidate?
You may be a candidate for dental implants in Aventura if you:
- Have one or more missing teeth
- Have healthy gums
- Have sufficient jawbone density
- Are looking for a permanent solution
- Want to avoid removable dentures
Implants vs other options
vs Dentures
Dentures are removable and may shift during eating or speaking. Implants are fixed, stable, and function like natural teeth.
vs Bridges
Bridges require altering healthy adjacent teeth. Implants do not affect surrounding teeth and preserve bone structure.
vs No Treatment
Without replacement, missing teeth lead to bone loss, shifting teeth, and facial changes. Implants replace both the root and crown — the most complete restorative option.
Frequently asked questions
Are dental implants painful?
The procedure is performed under anesthesia and is generally well tolerated. Mild discomfort after surgery is normal and temporary.
How long does the implant process take?
The full process can take several months due to healing and osseointegration.
Can implants fail?
Failure is rare but can occur due to poor healing, infection, or lack of bone integration.
What is the success rate of dental implants?
Dental implants have a success rate of over 95 percent when properly placed and maintained, and can last 20 years or more.
