Enjoy Lifelike Function by Pairing New Teeth With Implants
Implants are titanium tooth roots placed in your jaw. They function just like your natural tooth roots. Once in your jaw, they become a part of your body through a process called osseointegration. You won’t even know an implant is there, and it can last your lifetime.
You can trust our practice with this procedure. Dr. Irvine has extensive training in placing implants, having completed numerous continuing education courses. She is Dawson-certified and received additional implant training through implant seminars taught by expert, Dr. Arun Garg. Plus, we place implants using advanced technology for precise results. Using 3-D scans, we create custom surgical guides to give you the best outcome.
The process begins by coming in for a consultation. Your dentist will do an exam and take digital X-rays. She will determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure. You may need certain procedures to prepare your mouth to support implants. Your dentist may need to extract teeth to move forward. Bone grafting may be needed if you have bone loss in your jaw.
Your dental implant options include:
- Implant Crown – An implant combined with a dental crown replaces a single missing tooth. It functions like a natural tooth, so you can floss, brush, and eat normally.
- Implant Bridge – Replace several teeth in a row with an implant bridge. Instead of having to prepare healthy teeth to support a bridge, you can get your bridge anchored to implants. Your jaw will stay strong, unlike with a traditional bridge.
- Implant Dentures – Your dentures can remain securely in place with implants. You won’t have to use adhesive to keep your teeth secure. You can eat more of the foods you love without limitation or difficulty. You have two options: dentures that snap into place on top of implants and are removable for cleaning or teeth that stay fixed in place. With the latter option, you just brush and floss as usual. They can be removed by a dentist if any other maintenance is required. With her implant expertise, Dr. Irvine will help you select the replacement teeth that are right for you.
Call 704-246-5346 for dental implants in Charlotte. You can schedule online. We’re open as early as 7 a.m.!
Read MoreWhat to Expect During Your Implant Procedure
Understanding what’s involved in your implant treatment will help you feel at ease. Here is what happens:
- Your dentist will use advanced technology to plan your implant placement. We’ll take digital X-rays and scans to ensure placement is correct.
- Depending on the extent of bone loss in your jaw, you may need a bone graft or a ridge augmentation in preparation. These procedures prepare your jaw for implants.
- If those are necessary, after a time of healing, your dentist will place the implant(s) in your jaw.
- Once your jaw has a chance to integrate the implant(s), you’ll return for your restoration. Before you know it, you’ll have a fully functional set of teeth!

Common Questions About Dental Implants
What are dental implants?
Dental implants are small titanium posts that we place in your jaw to act as artificial teeth roots. They are an ideal way to replace missing teeth because the implant fuses with your jawbone to form a base for new teeth. Implants also help keep your jawbone healthy by stimulating the growth of new bone.
Can dental implants be removed?
Technically, dental implants can be removed, although it is unlikely you would ever need to have that done. Once your implants have been placed in your jawbone, they completely bond with it and can last for decades, if not the rest of your life. Your replacement teeth that are anchored to your implants have an average life span of five to 10 years.
How much do dental implants cost?
The cost of dental implants varies, depending mainly on how many implants you receive. In some cases, you may also need another procedure, like a tooth extraction or bone grafts, to prepare for implants. We’ll discuss the cost with you during the planning stage of your implant procedure so you know exactly what to expect. In addition, financing through CareCredit can make your care manageable.
