Understanding Dental Implants
Each dental implant consists of three main parts working together to create a complete tooth replacement.
1. The Implant
A titanium post placed securely in your jawbone that acts as the root of your new tooth. Titanium naturally fuses with bone for maximum stability.
2. The Abutment
A connector piece that attaches to the implant and supports the restoration. This component ensures proper fit and function of your new tooth.
3. The Crown
A natural-looking replacement tooth or bridge custom-made to match your existing teeth in color, shape, and size for seamless integration.

Treatment Planning: Everyone's Path is Unique
Not every patient starts from the same place. Some people who have been missing teeth for years may already have the right bone support and be candidates for immediate implant placement.
Others may need one or more of the following steps before implants can be placed:
Extractions
Removal of teeth that can't be savedBone Grafting
Rebuild areas where bone has thinned or resorbedSinus Lifts
Ridge augmentation in more complex casesWhy This Matters for Cost
The treatment plan — and therefore the cost — will depend on whether additional procedures are needed to create the right foundation for implants. While this may add to the initial investment, it ensures your implants are placed in a stable, healthy environment, giving you the best chance for long-term success.
At SubstiTooth, we take the time to carefully evaluate your bone, gums, and overall health so you receive a personalized plan that balances your needs, goals, and budget.
