Single Tooth Implant In Lakeway, TX

Missing just one tooth? A single dental implant is a lasting, natural-looking solution that restores both the appearance and function of your smile. Whether you lost a tooth due to injury, decay, or gum disease, a single tooth implant can help you regain confidence and maintain your oral health.

Restore Your Smile with a Single Tooth Implant

A single tooth implant consists of three parts:
  • Titanium post: Surgically placed into the jawbone, replacing the root of your missing tooth.
  • Abutment: A connector that joins the implant post to the crown.
  • Dental crown: A custom-made cap that matches your natural teeth in color, shape, and size.
This solution looks, feels, and functions just like a real tooth.

Why Choose a Dental Implant Over a Bridge?

Unlike traditional dental bridges, a single tooth implant doesn’t rely on surrounding teeth for support. This preserves the strength of your natural teeth and helps maintain jawbone health, preventing bone loss over time.

Benefits include:
  • Natural appearance and feel
  • Long-lasting durability
  • Improved speech and chewing
  • No need to alter adjacent teeth
  • Prevents shifting of nearby teeth

What Is a Single Tooth Implant?

Who Is a Candidate?

You may be a great candidate if:
  • You’re missing one tooth
  • Your jawbone is healthy
  • You have good oral hygiene habits
  • You’re free of gum disease
If jawbone loss has occurred, bone grafting may be recommended prior to implant placement.

The Procedure

  • Consultation: We evaluate your oral health and take digital X-rays or 3D scans.
  • Implant placement: The titanium post is placed into the jawbone under local anesthesia.
  • Healing period: Over a few months, the implant fuses with your bone (osseointegration).
  • Abutment & crown: Once healed, we attach the abutment and place your final crown.
