Missing a Tooth

If you're missing one or more teeth and want a permanent replacement rather than a removable one, it's worth discussing your options. Dr. Bentler or Dr. Simmons offers a metal-free alternative to traditional implants, made from zirconia, a strong, white, biocompatible ceramic material.

Signs You Should Bring It Up

  • You're missing one or more teeth and want a permanent solution
  • You want to avoid titanium and prefer a metal-free material
  • You have enough jawbone to support an implant, or want to find out if you do
  • A removable denture or bridge hasn't felt like the right fit for you

How We Evaluate at The Holistic Dental Center

Treatment starts with a consultation and 3D imaging to evaluate your jawbone and plan the implant's placement. Dr. Bentler or Dr. Simmons then places the zirconia implant, where it's given time to heal and bond with the bone before a custom crown completes your new tooth.

What Happens Next

Healing often takes a few months, and your dentist will monitor your progress along the way. Once healed, an implant looks, feels, and functions much like a natural tooth. To find out if you're a candidate, call us at (509) 325-2051.
