“Where every smile is celebrated.”
Dental implants are the gold standard for replacing missing teeth — they look, feel, and function just like your natural teeth. Eat, smile, and live with complete confidence.
A dental implant is a small titanium post that is surgically placed into your jawbone, where it fuses with the bone over time. This creates a strong, permanent foundation for a custom-made crown that looks and functions just like your natural tooth.
Unlike bridges or dentures, implants don't rely on neighboring teeth for support. They stand alone, preserving your healthy teeth and preventing the bone loss that occurs when teeth are missing.
At Monument Family Dentistry, we use advanced 3D imaging and planning software to ensure precise implant placement for the best possible outcome.
Dental implants offer advantages that no other tooth replacement option can match.
Implants are custom-designed to match your natural teeth in color, shape, and size. No one will know the difference.
Unlike dentures, implants let you eat all your favorite foods — steak, apples, corn on the cob — without worry.
Implants stimulate your jawbone just like natural tooth roots, preventing the bone loss that leads to facial sagging.
Bridges require grinding down adjacent teeth. Implants stand alone, keeping your healthy teeth intact.
With proper care, dental implants can last 25 years or more — often a lifetime. They're a long-term investment.
Care for implants just like natural teeth: brush, floss, and visit us for regular checkups. No special cleaning required.
We take 3D scans, evaluate your bone health, and create a detailed treatment plan tailored to you.
The titanium post is surgically placed in your jawbone. Most patients report minimal discomfort.
Over 3-6 months, the implant fuses with your bone in a process called osseointegration.
Once healed, we attach your custom-made crown. Your new tooth is complete and ready to use.
Ideal candidates have healthy gums, adequate jawbone density, and are committed to good oral hygiene. Even if you've experienced bone loss, bone grafting procedures can often make implants possible.
Dental implants can replace a single tooth, multiple teeth, or even support a full arch of teeth with implant-supported dentures.

Considering dental implants? Here are answers to the questions we hear most often.
Ask Us DirectlyWith proper care, dental implants can last 25 years or more — many last a lifetime. The crown may need replacement after 10-15 years due to normal wear, but the implant itself is designed to be permanent.
Most patients report less discomfort than expected. The procedure is done under local anesthesia, and many patients compare the recovery to having a tooth extracted. We also offer sedation options for anxious patients.
The total process typically takes 3-6 months, with most of that time devoted to healing. The actual procedures — placement and crown attachment — are relatively quick appointments.
Dental implants have a success rate of about 95-98% when placed by an experienced provider. Factors like good oral hygiene and not smoking improve your chances of long-term success.
A single implant typically ranges from $3,000-$5,000 including the crown. While this is higher upfront than other options, implants often prove more economical long-term because they can last a lifetime.
Many dental insurance plans now offer partial coverage for implants. We also accept HSA/FSA funds and offer financing options to make implants accessible.
