Single Dental Implants in Glendale, AZ

The most natural way to replace failing or missing teeth.

Why Choose a Single Implant

Single dental implants are a powerful solution for replacing missing teeth—offering unmatched stability, appearance, and long‑term oral health benefits.

 

1. Natural Look & Feel
A single implant is topped with a custom-crafted dental crown that blends seamlessly in color, shape, and bite function—so comfortably secure and visually cohesive, most patients forget about it within days.

2. Bone Preservation
Traditional bridges exert pressure on adjacent teeth and do little to prevent jawbone loss. A dental implant mimics a natural tooth root, stimulating the bone and curbing resorption over time.

3. Protection of Adjacent Teeth
Implants stand independently—it’s not necessary to modify neighboring teeth as you would for a dental bridge—keeping them intact and healthy for longer.

4. Durability & Cost-Efficiency
With proper care, implants last 25+ years—often a lifetime—making them a lower long-term investment compared to bridges or partial dentures.

5. Simplified Oral Hygiene
Cleaning around a single implant is as easy as brushing and flossing a natural tooth—no extra tools, no special routines, and no complications from wired or removable devices.

6. Improved Confidence & Quality of Life
Secure in their fit, implants restore normal speech and bite strength—bordering on the experience of having all your natural teeth back.

Best Situations for a Single Implant

1. One Missing Tooth, Healthy Adjacent Teeth
If you’ve lost a single tooth due to trauma, decay, or extraction—but your surrounding teeth are healthy—a single implant is your most conservative and effective option. Unlike a dental bridge, no grinding or reshaping of neighboring teeth is required.

2. Adequate Jawbone in the Implant Site
When the jawbone at the missing tooth site is strong and dense enough to support an implant post, you can avoid bone grafting and move directly into the implant process.

3. High Priority on Aesthetics and Function
If the missing tooth is in the smile zone (like a front incisor) or affects your bite alignment, a single implant provides the most natural appearance and chewing ability.

4. Desire for a Permanent, Low-Maintenance Solution
Single implants are fixed in place and don’t require special cleaning tools or adjustments. For patients looking for a “set it and forget it” replacement, this is the gold standard.


When NOT to Use a Single Implant

A single implant may not be the best route when:

  • Multiple adjacent teeth are missing → a bridge supported by two implants may be more efficient.

  • Severe bone loss is present → a bone graft may be needed first, or other options like a partial denture may be considered depending on your goals.

  • Full arch replacement is needed → implant-supported dentures or All-on-4 systems are more appropriate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from patients are answered below

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots, usually made from titanium, that are surgically placed into the jawbone. Once in place, they allow your dentist to mount replacement teeth onto them, offering a stable and permanent solution to tooth loss.

With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last a lifetime. The crown attached to the implant may need to be replaced due to wear and tear every 10 to 15 years, depending on individual habits and oral hygiene.

Patients are usually given local anesthesia during the implant procedure, so you shouldn't feel any pain. After the anesthesia wears off, some discomfort may be experienced, which can typically be managed with over-the-counter pain relief medications.

The cost of dental implants can vary widely depending on several factors, including the number of implants needed, the type of implants, and any additional procedures such as bone grafting. Our clinic strives to offer competitive pricing and various financing options to make dental implants accessible to as many people as possible. While other offices range from $4,000 to $7,000 for the implant, abutment, and crown; we offer everything, including tooth removal, and bone grafting, for $3,000.

Most people in good general health and with adequate bone density to support the implant can receive dental implants. However, some conditions like uncontrolled diabetes or certain heart diseases may affect the success of the implant. A thorough evaluation by our dental team will determine if dental implants are the right option for you.

Caring for dental implants is much like caring for your natural teeth, which includes brushing twice a day, flossing daily, and regular dental check-ups and cleanings. Proper oral hygiene helps ensure the longevity of your implants.

Dental implants have a high success rate, typically above 95%. Factors like good oral hygiene and regular dental visits can contribute to the success of your implants.

The process can vary, ranging from several months to over a year, depending on individual cases. This includes the initial consultation, the implant placement, the healing period, and the placement of the crown.

Dental insurance coverage for implants varies by provider and plan. Our clinic can assist you in understanding your benefits and exploring all available options to ensure you maximize any insurance benefits you may have.

Dental implants provide a more natural look and feel than dentures or bridges. They also function like your own teeth, allowing you to eat with confidence and without discomfort. Additionally, implants help preserve jawbone and prevent bone loss, maintaining the natural shape of your face.
