Dental Implants in Burtonsville, MD
Dental implants are a very reliable source for effective tooth replacement. Whether you have lost one tooth or many, implants can provide a permanent solution that looks and functions naturally.
Restore Your Smile with Dental Implants
Dental implants are a top choice for replacing missing teeth. Made of titanium, they’re placed below the gumline, where surrounding bone fuses with the implant over time, creating a stable foundation. Once healed, an artificial tooth is attached via a small connector called an abutment.
Tooth loss can lead to difficulty chewing, speaking clearly and more serious issues like shifting teeth, bone loss, facial changes and bite misalignment. Implants act as artificial roots, preserving bone health and alignment while preventing long-term complications. We’re proud to offer dental implants to the Burtonsville community.

What is the procedure for dental implants?
The process begins with a dental exam to assess the implant site. If necessary, any remaining teeth are extracted and a bone graft is performed. Healing takes a few months to ensure strong bone support.
Once healed, the implant is placed in the bone and covered with a healing cap. Follow-up visits monitor healing and check for signs of infection.
-
What types of dental implants exist?
Two common types of dental implants are endosteal and All-on-4 implants. Endosteal implants use a titanium rod placed in the jawbone with a post to support a crown or bridge. All-on-4 implants support a full upper or lower denture using just four strategically placed implants, offering greater stability, faster recovery and fewer complications.

What are the benefits of dental implants?
Tooth loss can cause chewing and speech difficulties and, if untreated, may lead to shifting teeth, jawbone loss, facial changes and bite issues. Without roots to support bone health, these problems worsen over time. Dental implants act as artificial roots to preserve alignment and prevent further damage.
-
How much does a dental implant cost?
Dental implant costs depend on the number of teeth replaced, insurance coverage, and procedure complexity. Implants typically range from $2,000–$3,000 per tooth, excluding the abutment and artificial tooth.
Insurance coverage varies by plan, but we offer cost estimates after your consultation. For uninsured patients, we provide fixed pricing and flexible payment plans to keep implants affordable.
-
Are dental implants safe?
Yes, dental implants are safe and have a high success rate. Still, as with any procedure, risks exist. A qualified dentist or oral surgeon can determine whether they’re right for your oral health needs.
