Smile Center Dentistry plans every implant case around a 3D cone-beam scan and a written treatment sequence, so you know the number of visits and the total cost before you commit.
Every Smile Center Dentistry office offering Dental Implants is held to the same four standards, verified before the office ever joins our network.
Every implant case is planned or reviewed by a licensed dentist with documented implant training, not a general assistant.
Digital planning software lets us preview implant angle and depth on-screen before the surgical guide is even printed.
Bone grafting, if needed, is quoted separately and explained clearly, not bundled into a vague lump sum.
Osseointegration is checked at defined intervals, and we won't load a crown onto an implant that hasn't properly fused.
Every option below is available under the same upfront-pricing standard, whichever specific service ends up fitting your case.
For an isolated gap, we place a single implant post and let it heal for several months before attaching the final crown. Most single-tooth cases need two to three visits total, spaced around the healing timeline.
Full-arch implant bridges are planned around available bone, often avoiding the need for grafting even in patients with some bone loss. Many patients leave with a temporary fixed arch the same day surgery is completed.
When a tooth has been missing for a while, the jawbone underneath often needs rebuilding before an implant can be placed securely. Grafting adds healing time but significantly improves long-term implant stability.
Two-stage placement buries the implant under the gum to heal before a second minor procedure exposes it; single-stage keeps it visible from day one. We'll explain which method applies to your case and why during the planning visit.
The final restoration is custom-shaded and shaped to match your bite and the teeth around it. We check occlusion carefully so the new tooth doesn't take on more bite force than it should.
Catching early gum inflammation around an implant is far easier to treat than waiting until bone loss has started. Recall visits for implant patients often run a little differently than a standard cleaning.
No mystery about what happens between calling us and walking out with the problem addressed.
Describe your situation and we'll schedule a CBCT scan and consultation, often within the same week.
The CBCT scan and a same-visit review let you see your own bone structure and hear the plan explained on-screen.
Surgery gets scheduled once you've reviewed and approved the written plan and price.
Implant placement is followed by a monitored healing period, then final crown, bridge, or denture attachment.
We publish these as-is, because that's the only kind of review worth reading before booking Dental Implants.
“I'd put off replacing a molar for three years out of fear of surgery. The CBCT scan showed me exactly what was happening before anything was decided.”
“Full-arch implants gave my mother her bite back. The temporary teeth the same day as surgery made all the difference psychologically.”
“They explained bone grafting clearly instead of just adding it to the invoice. I appreciated knowing why it was actually necessary.”
“Recovery was easier than I expected. Mild soreness for two days, and the follow-up checks caught nothing unusual.”
“The quote covered every stage upfront, so there were no surprise charges when it came time for the crown months later.”
These are the questions Medford patients ask most before booking Dental Implants.
Single-tooth cases typically run three to six months including healing; full-arch cases can run longer depending on grafting needs.
Discomfort is typically less than patients expect — a few days of soreness rather than significant pain.
We monitor integration at scheduled intervals specifically to catch this early if it occurs.
Only if imaging shows insufficient bone volume — we'll show you the scan and explain the reasoning either way.
Cost depends on how many implants and whether grafting is needed; you'll get a full written breakdown before committing.
The final crown is custom-shaded to match surrounding teeth, and most patients report it feels like their natural tooth within weeks.
If you're unsure whether your part of Medford is covered, a quick call settles it faster than searching online.
Our Dental Implants team serves Medford and the surrounding area, with CBCT imaging available on-site so scans don't require a separate trip. Parking and accessibility were considered when we set up our imaging suite for implant patients.
