Our experienced doctors use advanced technology, guided implant placement, and personalized treatment planning to replace missing or damaged teeth with dental implants designed to restore comfortable chewing, speaking, and appearance. Say goodbye to loose traditional dentures and hello to a secure, natural-looking smile you can trust.
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made of durable titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone to support a replacement tooth, crown, bridge, or even an entire arch of teeth. They are widely used in modern dentistry as a reliable option for replacing missing teeth.
Unlike dentures, implants are fixed in place and integrate with the bone during the healing process, helping preserve bone structure and gum tissue. With professional implant placement, patients can restore proper chewing, speech, and facial appearance while supporting long-term oral health.
Dental implants are designed to look, feel, and function similarly to natural teeth, helping many patients feel confident and comfortable.
Dental implants are an investment, and not every patient is immediately a good candidate. During your consultation at Goldstein Dental Center, we carefully assess your bone, gums, overall health, and goals before recommending implant dentistry.
With proper care and maintenance, dental implants offer durable, long-term results for many patients. In rare cases, restorations may require adjustment or replacement due to normal wear, but with regular dental visits and good oral hygiene, implants can last many years and often decades.
Choosing dental implant care in Atlanta means choosing comfort, stability, and improved oral health. At Goldstein Dental Center, we provide patient-focused care and implant solutions tailored to individual needs.
Dental implants can provide transformative results, whether you need a single tooth replacement, multiple implants, or a full-arch restoration. Unlike removable options, implants support the jawbone, protect the gums, and provide a stable, natural-looking smile.
Dental implant treatment is a well-established process with a strong track record of clinical success when properly planned and maintained. At Goldstein Dental Center, we focus on your comfort and care throughout each phase of treatment. From your initial consultation to your final restorations, our team guides you through each step so you know what to expect and feel comfortable throughout your care.
Your treatment begins with a comprehensive dental exam, including X-rays and 3D imaging, to assess your jawbone, gums, and overall oral health. This evaluation helps determine whether dental implants are appropriate for your needs.
If damaged teeth need to be removed before implant placement, extractions are performed carefully, with sedation options available when appropriate. Healing time varies by patient.
If additional bone support is needed, bone grafting may be recommended to strengthen the jaw before implant placement. Healing time may range from several weeks to a few months, depending on individual needs.
During implant placement, the titanium post is surgically placed into the jawbone. Most patients experience mild swelling or discomfort afterward. Over time, the implant integrates with the bone to form a stable foundation.
Once healing is complete, a custom crown, bridge, or denture is attached to the implant, restoring function and appearance.
Goldstein Dental Center proudly serves patients throughout Atlanta, GA, offering patient-focused care, transparent financial options, and flexible payment solutions. Our experienced dentists prioritize comfort, precision, and long-term oral health.
The process of getting dental implants typically involves several visits over the course of a few months. Each phase is carefully planned to support healing, comfort, and long-term success.
X-rays and dental impressions are taken to evaluate the jawbone, gum tissue, and spacing available for implant placement. Once the area is properly numbed, the implant is surgically placed into the jawbone. The implant is then allowed time to heal and integrate with the bone, a process that may take several months depending on individual factors.
In some cases, a second procedure may be needed to place the post that supports the final restoration. With other implant systems, the post and implant are placed at the same time. Your dentist will determine the most appropriate approach based on your treatment plan.
After sufficient healing, the replacement tooth or teeth are custom-made and fitted to the implant. Several fittings may be required to ensure proper function, comfort, and appearance. Once complete, the restoration is securely attached to the implant.
When treatment is finished, you will receive personalized care instructions. Maintaining good oral hygiene, healthy eating habits, and regular dental visits plays an important role in supporting the long-term success of your dental implant.
The total cost of an implant restoration includes the surgical phase and the restorative phase at Goldstein Dental Center, covering the abutment and final crown, bridge, or denture. Costs vary based on the type of restoration, whether preparatory work such as bone grafting is required, and the materials selected. Contact our office for a consultation and detailed cost estimate based on your specific situation.
Implants placed and restored correctly have a documented lifespan of 25 years or more, with many lasting significantly longer. Longevity depends on the quality of surgical placement, the precision of the restoration, and the patient’s ongoing oral health habits. The crown on top of the implant is typically the component that eventually needs replacement, usually at the 15 to 25-year mark depending on wear and the material used.
The surgical placement procedure is performed under local anesthesia, and most patients report less discomfort than expected. There is typically soreness and swelling in the days following surgery, managed with over-the-counter pain medication. The restoration phase at Goldstein Dental Center does not involve surgery and is generally no more involved than a standard crown appointment.
Coverage varies significantly by plan. Most traditional dental plans classify implants as a major restorative procedure and cover a percentage of eligible costs, subject to annual maximums and waiting periods. Some plans exclude implants entirely. Goldstein Dental Center accepts dental insurance directly and assists with the filing process, including submitting necessary radiographs and documentation. Contact our office with your plan information and we can verify your benefits before treatment begins.
Most adults with adequate bone density and good general health are candidates. The primary requirements are sufficient bone volume at the implant site (or the ability to build it through grafting), no uncontrolled systemic conditions that would affect healing, and healthy gum tissue. Dr. Goldstein evaluates candidacy during the initial consultation, which includes cone beam CT imaging to assess the implant site precisely.
Implant placement is the surgical procedure in which a titanium post is placed into the jawbone, performed by an oral surgeon or periodontist. Implant restoration is the process of designing and placing the crown, bridge, or denture that attaches to the post. At Goldstein Dental Center, Dr. Goldstein handles the planning and restoration phase; surgical placement is performed by Dr. Bruce Edelstein or Dr. Christopher Pesut. The two phases require different specialist training, and doing both well requires a surgeon and a prosthodontist working from the same plan from the start.
