At Scottsdale Elite Dentistry, implant dentistry represents the highest standard of modern tooth replacement—designed to restore not only your smile, but your confidence, comfort, and quality of life. Dental implants offer a permanent, natural-looking solution for missing or failing teeth, allowing patients to eat, speak, and smile with complete confidence. Our concierge-level approach ensures that every implant treatment is personalized, precise, and centered entirely around you.
Whether you are missing a single tooth or seeking a more comprehensive restoration, our implant solutions are carefully planned to deliver long-term stability, function, and esthetics in a comfortable, private setting.
What Is Implant Dentistry?
Implant dentistry focuses on replacing missing teeth using dental implants—small titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone to act as artificial tooth roots. Over time, the implant integrates with the bone, creating a strong and stable foundation for a crown, bridge, or denture.
A dental implant consists of three essential components:
- Implant Post: The titanium root replacement placed into the jawbone
- Abutment: The connector that links the implant to the restoration
- Restoration: The visible crown, bridge, or denture that completes your smile
Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants offer both functional and health-related advantages that other tooth replacement options cannot match. Patients choose implants because they provide lasting results while preserving oral health.
Key benefits of implant dentistry include:
- Permanent, long-lasting tooth replacement
- Restored chewing strength and speech clarity
- Natural appearance and feel
- Prevention of jawbone loss
- Preservation of facial structure
- No impact on neighboring healthy teeth
- Improved confidence and quality of life
By stimulating the jawbone, implants help prevent the bone deterioration and facial collapse commonly associated with missing teeth, supporting a more youthful appearance over time.
Implant Solutions We Offer
At Scottsdale Elite Dentistry, we provide implant solutions tailored to a wide range of needs. Every treatment plan is customized based on oral health, bone structure, and personal goals.
Single Tooth Implants
Ideal for replacing one missing tooth without affecting surrounding teeth. A single implant and crown restore function and appearance seamlessly.
Implant-Supported Bridges
Used when multiple teeth are missing in a row. Instead of relying on adjacent teeth for support, implants provide a stable foundation for a fixed bridge.
Implant-Supported Dentures
Dental implants can be used to secure dentures, dramatically improving stability, comfort, and confidence while eliminating slipping and adhesives.
Comprehensive Implant Planning
For patients with more complex needs, we create phased, strategic treatment plans that restore oral health while ensuring long-term success.
The Implant Dentistry Process
While each patient’s journey is unique, most implant treatments follow a carefully structured process designed for comfort, accuracy, and predictable outcomes.
1. Consultation and Evaluation
Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation, including digital imaging and a thorough examination. We assess bone health, oral conditions, and treatment goals to create a personalized plan.
2. Implant Placement
The implant is placed into the jawbone with precision. Comfort is prioritized throughout the procedure, and sedation options may be available depending on your needs.
3. Healing and Integration
Over the next several months, the implant bonds naturally with the bone in a process called osseointegration. This creates a secure foundation for the final restoration.
4. Final Restoration
Once healing is complete, a custom-designed crown, bridge, or denture is attached, restoring full function and aesthetics.
Throughout every step, our team ensures clear communication, comfort, and support.

Do I Need Bone Grafting for Dental Implants?
Some patients experience bone loss after missing teeth for an extended period. If there is insufficient bone to support an implant, bone grafting may be recommended to rebuild the jaw structure. This procedure allows many patients—who may have previously been told they are not candidates—to successfully receive dental implants.
A detailed consultation will determine whether additional preparatory procedures are needed before implant placement.
Who Is a Candidate for Implant Dentistry?
Dental implants may be an excellent option if you:
Most adults are candidates for implants, and each case is evaluated individually to ensure safe and successful outcomes.
- Have one or more missing teeth
- Want a permanent, non-removable solution
- Are unhappy with dentures or bridges
- Want to preserve jawbone and facial structure
- Are in generally good health
- Are seeking long-term oral stability
Most adults are candidates for implants, and each case is evaluated individually to ensure safe and successful outcomes.
