What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a permanent tooth replacement consisting of:
- A titanium implant post surgically placed in the jawbone
- A custom abutment that connects the implant to the crown
- A natural-looking dental crown that restores function and aesthetics
Unlike dentures or bridges, dental implants integrate with your jawbone, providing a secure, long-lasting, and natural-feeling solution for missing teeth.
Benefits of Dental Implants
- Permanent & Long-Lasting – With proper care, implants can last a lifetime.
- Restores Chewing & Speaking Ability – Enjoy eating all your favorite foods without discomfort.
- Prevents Bone Loss – Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing deterioration.
- Looks & Feels Natural – Mimics the function and appearance of real teeth.
- No Impact on Surrounding Teeth – Unlike bridges, implants do not rely on neighboring teeth for support.
- Improves Oral Health – Helps maintain a healthy, well-aligned bite.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Dental Implants?
You may be a good candidate for dental implants if you:
- Have one or more missing teeth
- Have a healthy jawbone with enough bone density to support an implant
- Are in good overall health with no uncontrolled medical conditions
- Do not smoke or are willing to quit during the healing process
- Want a permanent and reliable tooth replacement option

The Dental Implant Process at Hansen Dentistry
1. Initial Consultation & Treatment Planning: Dr. Hansen will assess your jawbone health, take 3D digital scans, and create a customized treatment plan.
2. Implant Placement Surgery: A titanium implant post is surgically placed in your jawbone under local anesthesia for comfort.
3. Healing & Osseointegration (3-6 Months): Over several months, the implant fuses with the jawbone through a natural process called osseointegration.
4. Abutment & Crown Placement: Once healed, a custom abutment and crown are securely attached, completing your natural-looking new tooth.
