The Permanent Solution for Missing Teeth

A dental implant is a small titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone to serve as an artificial tooth root. Once the implant integrates with the bone (a process called osseointegration), a custom crown is attached on top — creating a replacement tooth that looks, feels, and functions exactly like a natural tooth.

Unlike bridges, implants don't require altering adjacent healthy teeth. Unlike dentures, implants are fixed in place and don't slip or require adhesives. And unlike any other tooth replacement option, implants actually stimulate the jawbone and prevent the bone loss that occurs after tooth loss.

At Accent Family Dentistry in Angier, NC, Dr. Brenda Gong offers comprehensive implant consultations and works with trusted local specialists for the surgical placement phase when needed.

Am I a Candidate for Dental Implants?

Most adults with missing teeth are good candidates for dental implants. Ideal candidates have adequate bone density in the jaw, healthy gums, and good overall health. Certain conditions — such as uncontrolled diabetes or heavy smoking — can affect healing and success rates. Dr. Gong will conduct a thorough evaluation, including X-rays and a review of your health history, to determine if implants are right for you.

The Implant Process

The dental implant process typically takes 3–6 months from start to finish. The surgical placement of the implant post is followed by a healing period of 3–4 months during which the implant fuses with the bone. Once integration is confirmed, an abutment and custom crown are attached. Dr. Gong coordinates the entire process and ensures seamless communication between all providers involved in your care.

FAQs

Dental Implants in Angier, NC — Frequently Asked Questions

With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. The implant post itself is designed to be permanent. The crown on top may need replacement after 15–20 years due to normal wear.

The surgical placement is performed under local anesthesia (and sedation if desired), so you should not feel pain during the procedure. Some soreness and swelling are normal for a few days after surgery and are well-managed with over-the-counter pain medication.

The cost of dental implants varies based on the number of implants, whether bone grafting is needed, and other factors. We provide detailed cost estimates after your consultation. Many patients find that the long-term value of implants — given their durability and quality of life benefits — makes them the most cost-effective option over time.

Some dental insurance plans provide partial coverage for implants, though many do not. Our team will verify your benefits and discuss all payment options, including financing, to make implants accessible.

Dental implants have a success rate of approximately 95–98% in healthy patients. Factors that improve success include good oral hygiene, not smoking, and maintaining regular dental visits.
