A single-tooth dental implant is a restorative dental procedure designed to replace one missing tooth. It consists of three main components:
Unlike traditional bridges, which rely on adjacent teeth for support, a single-tooth implant stands independently, preserving the health of surrounding teeth and bone. This makes it a preferred choice for patients seeking a durable, long-term solution.
Patients often choose a dental implant for the following reasons:

Ideal candidates for single-tooth implants in Prescott Valley include:
For those suffering from insufficient bone density, supplemental procedures are available to prepare the implant site. Procedures such as bone grafting or a sinus lift may be recommended.
Prescott Valley will assess your oral health, take imaging scans, and discuss your goals. If necessary, they may recommend preparatory treatments like bone grafting or tooth extraction.
The implant procedure is performed under local anesthesia or sedation for comfort. Our dentist makes a small incision in the gum, drills a precise hole in the jawbone, and places the titanium implant post. The gum is then stitched closed, and the implant is left to heal and integrate with the bone.
Osseointegration typically takes 3 to 6 months. During this time, the implant fuses with the jawbone, creating a strong foundation for the crown. A temporary restoration may be provided to maintain aesthetics and function.
Once osseointegration is complete, a minor procedure is performed to attach the abutment to the implant post. This connects the implant to the crown.
Our Prescott Valley dentist will take impressions of your teeth to create a custom crown. The crown is then attached to the abutment, completing the restoration. The final result is a natural-looking, fully functional tooth.
On average, the cost of a single dental implant ranges from $3,000 to $6,000 per implant, including the implant post, abutment, and crown. Dental insurance may cover a portion of the cost, particularly if the implant is medically necessary. Many dental practices offer financing plans, payment installments, or third-party financing options to make implants more affordable.
