Whether it's one tooth or a full arch, Dental Implants in Purdy starts with a CBCT scan, not a guess. Smile Center Dentistry plans every case with 3D imaging before a single post goes in.
Osseointegration takes months either way — we'd rather spend an extra week planning than redo a placement. We'd rather tell you a case needs more healing time than rush a restoration that fails in a year.
Our implant providers carry current Purdy, WA licensure and continuing education specific to oral implantology. Credentials are available on request, before you ever sit in the chair.
We use 3D cone-beam imaging to map bone density and nerve position before recommending a single-stage or two-stage approach. Nerve position is confirmed on imaging first, which is what keeps placement safe near the lower jaw.
You'll see the cost of the post, abutment, and crown broken out separately, not bundled into a vague estimate. Financing options are discussed at consultation if the full cost is a concern.
If your crown or abutment needs adjustment after placement, we handle it at no extra charge within the guarantee window. Guarantee terms are explained in writing at your consultation, not buried in fine print.
Your treatment plan depends on bone density, tooth location, and how many teeth are missing.
One missing tooth, one implant, one crown — planned to blend in rather than stand out. Healing time is discussed upfront, typically three to six months before the final crown.
A bridge anchored to implants avoids grinding down healthy adjacent teeth the way a traditional bridge would. We explain the trade-offs between this and single implants before you decide.
A full arch of replacement teeth can be supported on as few as four strategically placed implants. This option is discussed in detail with realistic timelines, not a same-day promise that overstates recovery.
Not every jaw is ready for an implant on day one — grafting buys the density needed for a stable, lasting post. We walk through healing time for grafts honestly, since it adds months, not days.
Implants don't get cavities, but the surrounding gum tissue still needs monitoring for peri-implantitis. We build these checks into your recall schedule automatically.
Not every case qualifies for a same-day temporary — bone quality and bite force both factor into that decision. We'll tell you honestly at your consult whether your case is a candidate.
Call +1-866-227-2801 and describe which teeth are missing and how long they've been gone — that shapes what we scan for.
You'll see your own scan on screen while we explain exactly what it shows.
You leave with a written plan, not a verbal estimate you have to remember.
The implant post is placed, allowed to integrate with the bone, then topped with your custom crown, bridge, or arch.
"Lost a molar years ago and finally did the implant. The CBCT scan they showed me made the whole process make sense."
"Got a full upper arch done here. It's not an overnight process like some ads claim, but they were honest about that from day one."
"Shade-matching on my implant crown was spot on — nobody can tell which tooth it is."
"Itemized quote for the post, abutment, and crown separately — I actually understood what I was paying for."
"Surgical guide made from my CBCT scan — they showed me exactly where the post would go before the procedure."
Full-arch cases can take longer depending on grafting needs — we give you a realistic timeline at your consult, not a rushed one. We check on integration progress at scheduled intervals rather than guessing when it's ready.
Low bone density doesn't automatically disqualify you; it usually just adds a grafting step before placement. We'll show you the scan and explain the grafting option honestly, not push you into a case that isn't ready.
We break down post, abutment, and crown costs separately so you know exactly what you're paying for. We'd rather walk through the numbers together than have you guess at a website estimate.
We discuss sedation choices at your consult so you're comfortable with the plan going in. We check in after placement to make sure recovery is going as expected.
Care is similar to natural teeth, with extra attention to gum health around the implant site. We show you specific cleaning techniques for around the implant at your follow-up visit.
Coverage varies widely by plan; we check yours and explain what's likely covered before you commit. Verification happens before treatment starts, not as a surprise on your final invoice.
Our implant team serves Purdy and the surrounding zip codes, so nearby residents don't have to travel far for 3D-guided planning. If you're unsure whether your case needs a specialist referral, we'll tell you honestly at your consult rather than taking on a case beyond our scope.
