Tooth Implants in San Francisco

Dental Implants

At Azure Dental, our oral and maxillofacial surgeons offer dental implants as a solution for people who have lost teeth. If you are located in San Francisco and are considering dental implants, please call Azure Dental at 415-563-3100 for a consultation. We are happy to answer any questions you have about the procedure.

How can dental implants help if you are missing teeth?

Dental implants replace missing teeth and are an affordable dental solution for people who have lost teeth to gum disease, trauma, or other reasons. They can restore a strong foundation for a patient’s teeth and jaw, and they are more durable and convenient than dentures. Dental implants are made of titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone. An implant can replace a single missing tooth, or our oral surgeon can use implants to stabilize a dental bridge or implant-supported denture. After the dental implant has fused to your jawbone, a dental crown is custom-made to match your natural teeth.

Will a dental implant look like my natural teeth?

One of the great things about dental implants is that they will look like your natural teeth, and you will be able to chew and speak like normal. The crowns attached to the implant post will look like a natural tooth in color and shape for a seamless look. In addition, the implant-supported teeth will be color-matched for a healthy smile, even with a bridge or denture. Most people can’t tell you dental implant patients have artificial teeth!

A dental implant is made of the following parts:

  • The implant: A titanium screw that acts as the tooth root and fuses to the jawbone
  • The abutment: A permanent connector that supports a tooth or set of teeth
  • The crown: The part of the implant that you can see and looks like your natural tooth

Dental Implant Options at Azure Dental in San Francisco, CA

At Azure, we offer several implant options to improve oral health and give you back a beautiful smile. Our oral and maxillofacial surgeons are dental implant specialists and can provide the tooth replacement options you need based on your specific case.

Types of Implants

  • Single Tooth Implant: If you are missing a single tooth, we can place a dental implant to replace just one tooth. The dentist will place the titanium post into the jaw bone, and an artificial tooth will be attached to the implant post.
  • Full Mouth Restoration: If you are missing many teeth, we can provide a full-mouth restoration. A complete mouth restoration involves placing dental implants in both the upper and lower jaws. In addition, for patients with tooth loss from periodontal disease, we can reconstruct the jaw bone with bone grafting and oral surgery to prepare the area for dental implants.
  • Same-Day Implants: We can also offer same-day dental implants, in which our oral surgeon can place temporary, fully functional teeth in a single visit.

Cost of Dental Implants

The cost of dental implants will vary for patients seeking dental implants, depending on their needs. We offer financing options to make dental implants and replacement teeth affordable for everyone. Some of the factors that will determine the cost of your implants include:
  • The number of implants: The number of implants you need will affect the cost of your treatment. Single implant placement will be cheaper than multiple implants or full-mouth restoration.
  • Your provider’s experience: Board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeons in San Francisco may have different pricing depending on their specific training and experience level.
  • The complexity of your dental implant procedure: Complex cases that require additional oral surgery will be more expensive. If you need bone grafting or full maxillofacial surgery, the cost will be higher.
Dental implant surgery can range from $3,000 for a single implant to over $50,000 for full mouth reconstruction. It truly depends on your oral health and your specific needs. You should contact your dental insurance company to determine if any of your treatment is covered under your insurance plan.
