Dental Implants in Henderson, NV

Permanent Tooth Replacement That Looks and Feels Natural

Missing teeth can affect more than just your smile—they can impact how you eat, speak, and feel. At Green Valley Dentistry in Henderson, we provide modern dental implant solutions to restore both the function and aesthetics of your teeth. Implants are the most reliable long-term option for replacing missing teeth, offering exceptional strength, stability, and a natural appearance.

Whether you’re missing one tooth or several, our dental implant services are customized to fit your specific needs using cutting-edge technology and a patient-first approach.

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone to act as artificial tooth roots. Once the implant has fused with the bone through a process called osseointegration, it can support a crown, bridge, or denture. This structure mimics the strength and functionality of natural teeth.

We offer a range of dental implant solutions, including:

• Single Tooth Implants: Ideal for replacing one missing tooth without affecting neighboring teeth.
• Implant-Supported Bridges: Used when multiple teeth in a row are missing.
• Full-Arch Restoration: Including All-on-4 implants for full smile replacement.
• Implant-Retained Dentures: More secure than traditional dentures—see full and partial dentures.

Our team may also recommend bone grafting if additional support is needed before implant placement.

Benefits of Choosing Implants

Dental implants offer several advantages over traditional tooth replacement options:

• Preserve jawbone density and prevent facial sagging
• Function like real teeth for eating and speaking
• Don’t rely on adjacent teeth like bridges
• Designed to last for decades with proper care
• Help prevent shifting of neighboring teeth

Unlike dentures, implants remain fixed in place, providing a level of security and confidence that removable options often can’t match.

Our Process for Dental Implants

Getting dental implants at Green Valley Dentistry is a thorough but straightforward process:

1. Initial Consultation: We evaluate your health, jawbone density, and overall goals. Imaging may include 3D CT scanning and digital impressions.
2. Treatment Planning: A personalized plan is developed by Dr. Elizabeth Day to guide your implant journey.
3. Implant Placement: The titanium post is placed into the jaw under local anesthesia or oral sedation.
4. Healing & Integration: Over a few months, the implant fuses with the bone to create a stable base.
5. Restoration: We place a custom crown, bridge, or denture to complete your new smile.

If needed, interim solutions like overdentures or temporary prosthetics are available during the healing phase.
