Dental Implants in Centennial, CO
A strong, natural-looking way to replace missing teeth – planned around your smile.
At Holly Dental Associates, we use digital planning and (when helpful) 3D CBCT imaging to design implants that look and feel like real teeth. Many implant procedures are completed in-office by our dentists; when a case benefits from advanced grafting or specialty care, we coordinate with trusted surgeons and guide you each step.
Stable, lifelike teeth that protect your smile long-term
Implants replace the root of a missing tooth and support a crown, bridge, or denture. They help keep the jawbone from shrinking, protect your neighboring teeth, and give you the ability to chew solid foods.
Implants help when you have:
- A single missing or non-restorable tooth
- Several teeth missing in a row
- A loose partial or uncomfortable full denture
- Failing teeth that need a full-arch solution
Implant solutions we use every day
From planning to your final teeth - how the process works
Step 1 – Exam & 3D planning
We review your health history, take photos and digital X-rays, and use CBCT imaging when needed to map bone, nerves, and sinuses. You’ll see options, timelines, and costs up front.
Step 2 – Comfortable placement
Implants are placed with precise guides. We offer nitrous oxide and oral sedation for anxious patients. When a tooth must be removed, we may place the implant the same day if conditions allow.
Step 3 – Healing & provisional teeth
The implant bonds to the bone (usually 8–12 weeks). You won’t be without teeth – we’ll use a temporary crown, partial, or denture as appropriate.
Step 4 – Final restoration & maintenance
A custom crown, bridge, or fixed denture is attached and the bite is fine-tuned. We’ll show you how to clean around implants and schedule checkups to keep everything healthy.
Clear answers before you start
Good candidates have healthy gums and adequate bone (grafting can often help). Conditions like smoking, uncontrolled diabetes, or active periodontal disease don’t always rule implants out, but they do require careful planning.
Costs & payments:
Prices vary based on the number of implants and the type of restoration (single crown vs. bridge vs. full-arch). We’ll provide a written estimate, help you maximize PPO benefits, and offer 3rd-party monthly financing. No insurance? Ask about our in-house membership savings.
Do dental implants hurt?
Most patients are surprised at how comfortable the procedure is. You’ll be numb, and we can add nitrous or oral sedation if you’re anxious. Expect mild soreness for a day or two that’s manageable with OTC medication.
How long do implants last?
With good home care and regular checkups, implants are designed for many years of service. Crowns or dentures attached to implants may need maintenance or replacement over time, as with natural teeth.
What if I was told I don’t have enough bone?
Bone grafting or a different implant approach may still make treatment possible. We’ll review your CBCT scan and discuss options – or coordinate with a specialist if that’s the best route.
Will I be without teeth while implants heal?
No. We provide an appropriate temporary (crown, partial, or denture) so you can smile and eat soft foods during healing.
Can you replace all my teeth with implants?
Yes – either with implant-retained dentures or a fixed full-arch implant bridge. We’ll explain pros, cons, and costs so you can choose the best fit.
How do I clean around implants?
Brush and floss (or use interdental brushes/water flosser) daily and keep your maintenance visits. We’ll tailor tips to your specific restoration.
