Dental Implants

The closest thing to your natural tooth back.

A missing tooth doesn't just change your smile — it changes how you chew, speak, and how the bone in your jaw holds up over time. Dental implants are the closest thing modern dentistry has to growing a new tooth: a titanium root, a natural-looking crown, and decades of function. At Lawrenceville Dentistry we plan implants with digital imaging, place and restore them gently, and — because the price tag is the real question — we'll map your cost, insurance and 0% financing options before anything touches your mouth. Call 770-415-0077 for an implant consultation.

Are Implants Right for You?

Most adults with healthy gums and adequate jawbone qualify. Implants are worth a serious look when you want:

  • Natural Appearance: Implants mimic the look and feel of natural teeth.
  • Improved Functionality: Eat, speak, and smile without worrying about slipping.
  • Long-Term Durability: With proper care, implants can last a lifetime.
  • Preserved Jaw Health: Prevent the bone loss caused by missing teeth.

How the Process Works

Start to finish usually takes 3–6 months — healing between placement and final crown does most of the waiting:

  • Consultation and Evaluation: Digital imaging maps your bone and plans exact placement — with an exact quote.
  • Implant Placement: Precise, fully-numbed insertion of the titanium root into your jawbone.
  • Healing and Integration: The implant fuses with your bone over a few months for rock-solid stability.
  • Restoration: A custom crown is attached — matched to your natural teeth so nobody can tell.
  • Some patients need dental bone grafting first to rebuild support — we'll tell you up front if you do.

Cost, Insurance & 0% Financing

The price tag is the real question, so we answer it first. A single implant with crown typically runs a few thousand dollars; your consult includes an itemized quote showing exactly what your insurance covers (many plans cover parts of the process, like the extraction or crown).

For the rest, flexible payment plans for implants through Cherry, Sunbit and CareCredit mean most patients qualify for 0% monthly payments.

Implants vs. Bridges vs. Dentures

  • Implants: the longest-lasting option — protects bone, never decays, and needs no support from neighboring teeth.
  • Dental bridges: faster and cheaper up front, but relies on grinding down adjacent healthy teeth.
  • Dentures: the most affordable path for many missing teeth — and implants can anchor them for a fraction of a full-arch implant case.
  • We'll show you all three quotes side by side — no pressure, just the trade-offs.

What are dental implants, and how do they work?

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made of titanium that are surgically placed into your jawbone. They provide a sturdy foundation for replacement teeth, such as crowns or dentures.

Are dental implants a permanent solution?

Yes, with proper care, dental implants are a long-lasting solution. They integrate with the jawbone and can last a lifetime with good oral hygiene and regular checkups.

Am I a good candidate for dental implants?

Most people with healthy gums and adequate jawbone density are good candidates. A dental evaluation will determine your suitability for implants.

Does getting dental implants hurt?

The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia, so you won't feel pain during the process. Some discomfort afterward is normal but manageable with medication.

How long does it take to get dental implants?

The process can take several months, including the surgical placement, healing time for the implant to fuse with the bone, and attaching the crown or denture.

Are dental implants better than dentures or bridges?

Dental implants offer a more natural look and feel, better stability, and prevent bone loss. However, the best option depends on your specific needs and dental health.

How much do dental implants cost in Lawrenceville?

A single implant with crown typically runs a few thousand dollars; your consult includes an exact quote plus financing options — most patients qualify for 0% plans.

How long do dental implants last?

With proper care, they can last 20–30 years or even a lifetime.

Am I too old for dental implants?

Age isn't the main factor — bone health is, and most adults qualify.

What happens if I don't replace a missing tooth?

The surrounding teeth shift, bone loss begins, and your face shape can change over time.

Can implants fail? What are the signs?

They can, but it's rare — signs include pain, swelling, or the implant feeling loose.
