Why Choose DeWitt Dental for Dental Implants?

Long-Term Option

With good home care and regular checkups, implants can last for years.

Natural Look & Feel

Implants are designed to look, feel, and work like natural teeth.

Helps Protect Jawbone

An implant sits in the jawbone where the root was, which can help limit the bone loss that often follows a missing tooth.

No Impact on Adjacent Teeth

Unlike bridges, implants don't require grinding down healthy neighboring teeth.

Improved Confidence

Eat, speak, and smile with confidence. No worries about slipping dentures or gaps in your smile.

Careful Planning

Before treatment, the dentist reviews your health, gums, and bone to see if an implant is a good fit for you.

What to Expect

Consultation & Planning

A thorough exam and a talk about your goals determine if you're a candidate. We create a detailed treatment plan.

Implant Placement

Our doctors surgically place the titanium implant post into your jawbone, explaining each step and checking in with you along the way.

Healing Period

Osseointegration, the implant fusing with your bone, usually takes 3 to 6 months. You may have a temporary restoration during healing.

Abutment & Crown

Once healed, we attach the abutment and custom crown. Your new tooth is complete.

Frequently Asked Questions

Age usually isn’t the deciding factor. What matters is overall health, gum health, and whether you have enough bone to support an implant. Many adults get implants later in life. If you’re healthy enough for routine dental treatment, you may be a good candidate.
We numb the area before we begin and check in with you during the procedure. Afterward, it’s normal to have some soreness and swelling for a few days, which is typically manageable with medication and simple aftercare instructions. If you feel anxious, tell us and we will explain each step as we go.
Implants are designed to be a long-term solution and can last for years with good home care and regular dental visits. The implant post itself often lasts a very long time. The crown on top may need replacement at some point due to normal wear, just like any other restoration.
That doesn’t automatically rule implants out. In some cases, bone grafting can build support. In others, we may recommend different implant sizes or positions, or discuss alternative replacement options like a bridge or partial denture. We’ll evaluate your anatomy with x-rays and give you clear, realistic options based on what will be predictable and stable.
Implant cost depends on how many teeth you are replacing, whether you need a bone graft, and the type of final restoration. A single implant is typically quoted as three parts: the implant post, the abutment, and the crown. The clearest way to get a real number is a consultation and exam, where the team reviews your case and gives you a written estimate before any treatment begins.
Most implant timelines run several months. After the post is placed, the bone needs time to fuse to the implant, which commonly takes three to six months, before the final crown is attached. Your exact timeline depends on healing and whether any preparatory work is needed.
Your implant plan starts with a consultation. The dentist explains each step, from placing the implant to the final crown, and tells you who will handle each part.
Yes. The DeWitt Discount Plan is $35 per year and gives patients without dental insurance 10% off all procedures. It is a discount plan, not insurance. Ask the front desk to enroll.
