Dental Implant Restoration

At BayView Dental Arts, our professional Naples dental implant team has the tools and experience to make your smile whole again in several easy, reliable steps. We provide among the best dental implants in Naples, replacing those that have become loose, discolored, or otherwise affected.

What Is a Dental Implant?

Often misunderstood, dental implants in Naples, FL, are simply artificial tooth roots that hold a replacement tooth where your natural tooth once was. Made of titanium, a biocompatible material that fuses naturally to your jawbone, a dental implant permanently replaces the root of the dead, damaged, or diseased tooth. Since dental implants replace the tooth root, they are uniquely able to:

  • Replace one or more teeth without affecting adjacent teeth
  • Support a bridge without the need for a removable partial denture
  • Support a denture to make it more secure and comfortable

They made me feel very comfortable with their willingness to take the time to explain everything. I had a root canal in an hour with no pain and very little discomfort afterwards. The office was clean and everyone was nice and helpful. Sara R.

The Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental implants remain the gold standard in tooth replacement, and when properly restored, they continue to deliver exceptional results:

Natural Appearance

Each implant restoration is designed to blend seamlessly with your surrounding teeth, creating a smile that looks entirely natural.

Improved Speech

Because implants are securely anchored, they eliminate the slipping or shifting that can cause speech difficulties with dentures.

Greater Comfort

Implants fuse with the jawbone and function like natural roots, eliminating the discomfort of removable appliances.

Better Oral Health

Implants preserve surrounding teeth and prevent bone loss, protecting the long-term health of your mouth.

Durability You Can Trust

Restored implants can last for decades with proper care, making them one of the most reliable dental solutions available.

Renewed Confidence

When your implants look, feel, and function as they should, you’ll smile, speak, and eat confidently daily.

Cost of Dental Implants

The cost of dental implants in Naples includes the implant itself, the abutment (the metal connector that attaches the implant to the bone), the surgery, and the crown. Prices vary depending on the number of teeth being replaced, with single-tooth implants averaging between $3,000 and $4,500 and full-arch restorations ranging from $15,000 to $30,000. Additional factors, such as diagnostic imaging, anesthesia, or preparatory treatments, may influence the final cost. At BayView Dental Arts, patients find peace of mind knowing that every implant is an investment in lasting health, aesthetics, and confidence—backed by advanced technology and expert care designed for durability and natural beauty.

What Is the Dental Implant Restoration Process?

When dental implants are placed, the process is performed as an outpatient procedure, usually under local anesthesia or IV “twilight” sedation for maximum comfort.

Implant Placement

A titanium post is secured into the jawbone as a new tooth root. Advanced imaging and guided technology make placement highly precise and minimally invasive.

Healing and Integration

Over the following months, the implant fuses with the jawbone in osseointegration. This critical stage ensures your implant is strong and stable for long-term success.

Abutment Attachment

Once integration is complete, a small connector piece (the abutment) is attached to the implant. This step creates the foundation for your final restoration.

Custom Restoration

A crown, bridge, or denture—crafted to match your natural teeth in shape, size, and color—is securely placed on the abutment. The result is a restored smile that looks, feels, and functions like yours.

Dental Implant Options

Every patient’s needs are unique, and at BayView Dental Arts, we tailor your implant treatment to your health, anatomy, and smile goals. Our specialists will help you select the right option from the following categories:

Types of Implants

  • Endosteal Implants: The most common type, these titanium posts are surgically placed into the jawbone, providing a secure, long-lasting foundation for restorations.
  • Subperiosteal Implants: These implants rest on top of the bone but underneath the gum tissue, and they are used for patients who do not have enough healthy jawbone.

Preparatory Techniques

For patients who need additional support before implants are placed, we may recommend:

  • Bone Augmentation: Rebuilds jawbone volume using grafts and growth factors.
  • Sinus Lift: Adds bone beneath the sinuses where tooth loss has caused bone deterioration.
  • Ridge Expansion: Grafts are used to widen a thin jaw so it can hold implants securely.

Specialized Implant Treatments

Advanced technology and 3D imaging allow us to offer innovative approaches such as:

  • Immediate Load Implants: Temporary teeth can often be placed the same day as your implants, reducing downtime.
  • Mini Dental Implants (MDIs): Narrower than traditional implants, these are placed with a less invasive technique and often used to stabilize lower dentures.
  • All-on-4 Implants: A full arch of teeth can be restored using just four implants strategically placed into existing bone, often completed in one day.

What Is the BayView Approach?

At BayView Dental Arts, implant restorations are overseen by highly trained prosthodontists who specialize in designing and placing natural-looking restorations. Dr. Hedgepath and Dr. Scherder utilize advanced CAD/CAM (computer-aided design and manufacturing) technology to create custom implant crowns with exceptional precision.

In most cases, this means patients can see their restoration being designed and leave the very same day with a fully restored smile. Every detail is carefully calibrated to ensure lasting function, aesthetics, and comfort.
