Permanent tooth replacement solution that looks and feels natural
Quick answer: A dental implant is a titanium post surgically placed in the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth, topped with a custom crown that looks and functions like a natural tooth. At Redwater Dental Clinic, the full implant process — from initial 3D scan to final crown placement — takes several months, with the timeline confirmed after assessment and healing between stages. A complete single-tooth implant costs about $5,000 in 2026: $2,200 for surgical placement plus $2,800 for the implant crown.
Dental implants are one option for replacing missing teeth. They consist of a titanium post surgically placed in your jawbone, topped with a custom crown that is designed to blend with your natural teeth.
If the idea of implant surgery feels daunting, that's completely normal. Many of our implant patients felt the same way before their procedure — and most say it was easier than they expected. Dr. AJ will walk you through the entire process at your own pace. For comfort, we offer oral sedation, and IV sedation is also available at the clinic when needed.
Our experienced team uses advanced 3D Cone Beam imaging to plan your implant placement with precision. The process typically involves:
Most adults with good general health and adequate jawbone are candidates for dental implants. If implants are not suitable, alternatives such as dentures may be recommended. We'll perform a thorough evaluation to determine if implants are right for you.
Implants can be a long-term replacement, but their lifespan is not guaranteed. Health, smoking, oral hygiene, and follow-up care affect outcomes. Infection, healing problems, or mechanical complications can require further treatment. The implant crown may need maintenance or replacement. See the FDA patient guide to dental implants for benefits, risks, and questions to ask.
Your treatment is planned in stages. Healing can take several months or longer; bone grafting and individual healing may extend the schedule. Dr. AJ will explain the expected visits, temporary tooth options, and recovery instructions before treatment.
A complete single-tooth dental implant at Redwater Dental Clinic costs about $5,000 in 2026 — $2,200 for surgical placement of the implant plus $2,800 for the implant crown.
