Dental Implants
in Las Vegas, NV

Missing teeth can transform your daily life in ways you never expected, turning simple pleasures like enjoying a meal with friends or laughing freely into sources of anxiety and embarrassment. Unfortunately, the gap left by a lost tooth doesn’t just affect your appearance; it impacts your self-esteem, your ability to eat the foods you love, and even your speech patterns. But there’s a solution!

At Naylor Family Dental and Implant Center, we’re passionate about helping Las Vegas residents restore their smiles with dental implants. Dr. Brian Naylor and our compassionate team have been serving the community since 2017, combining advanced implant technology with a personalized approach that prioritizes your comfort and long-term oral health.

What Are Dental Implants?

Think of dental implants as the closest thing to regrowing your natural teeth. Unlike dentures that rest on top of your gums or bridges that rely on neighboring teeth for support, implants work by replacing your tooth’s root with a small titanium post that’s surgically placed into your jawbone. This creates a secure foundation that can support a crown, bridge, or even complete arch restoration.

The beauty of implants lies in their three-part design. The titanium implant post serves as your new tooth root, fusing with your jawbone through a process known as osseointegration. An abutment connects the implant to your final restoration, which is typically a custom-made crown that mimics your natural teeth in size, shape, and color. This combination creates a tooth replacement that looks, feels, and functions just like the original.

The Growing Need for Tooth Replacement

Tooth loss is more common than many people realize. According to the American College of Prosthodontics, approximately 178 million Americans are missing at least one tooth, and about 40 million Americans are missing all of their teeth. These statistics highlight why effective tooth replacement options like dental implants have become so crucial for maintaining quality of life and overall health.

Why Choose Implants Over Other Options?

When you lose a tooth, you have several replacement options, but implants offer unique advantages that make them the benchmark for tooth replacement. Unlike removable dentures, implants won’t slip or click when you’re speaking or eating. They also don’t require special adhesives or overnight soaking routines.

Bridges, while effective, require altering healthy adjacent teeth to serve as anchors. Implants preserve your existing teeth by standing independently, maintaining the integrity of your natural smile. Additionally, implants stimulate your jawbone just like natural tooth roots, stopping the bone loss that commonly occurs after tooth extraction.

The Implant Process at Naylor Family Dental

We believe in making the mystery of dental procedures transparent by walking you through each step of your implant journey. During your initial consultation, Dr. Naylor will examine your mouth, assess your medical history, and discuss your treatment goals. Advanced imaging helps us determine if you have sufficient bone density for implant placement and allows us to plan your procedure with precision.

The implant placement itself is typically more comfortable than most people expect. Using local anesthesia, Dr. Naylor carefully places the titanium implant into your jawbone. Many patients are surprised to learn the procedure often involves less discomfort than a tooth extraction. After placement, your implant will need time to integrate with your bone, a process that usually takes three to six months.

Once integration is complete, we’ll attach your custom abutment and crown. The result is a tooth replacement that seamlessly blends with your natural smile, restoring full function to your bite.

Financing Your Implant Treatment

We understand dental implants are a meaningful investment in your oral health, which is why we offer several financing options to make treatment accessible. We work with Cherry and CareCredit to provide flexible payment plans that fit your budget. Our team is also happy to help you maximize your insurance benefits, as many plans provide partial coverage for implant treatment.

For patients without traditional insurance, our in-house dental membership plan offers an affordable alternative that includes preventive care and discounts on major treatments like implants. We believe everyone should have access to quality dental care, and we’re committed to finding a payment solution that works for your situation.

Life After Implants

One of the most rewarding aspects of implant treatment is watching patients rediscover the joy of eating, speaking, and smiling with confidence. You’ll be able to enjoy all your favorite foods again, from crispy apples to tender steaks, without worrying about dentures slipping or bridges failing.

Caring for your implants is remarkably simple; just brush and floss as you would your real teeth. Regular dental checkups allow us to oversee your implants and maintain your overall oral health. With quality care and maintenance, implants can last for decades, making them an excellent investment in your quality of life.

Your new implants will also help maintain your facial structure by preserving jawbone density. This prevents the sunken appearance that often develops after tooth loss, helping you preserve a youthful look for years to come.

The Benefits Of Dental Implants in Las Vegas, NV

Experience Unmatched Comfort

Say goodbye to discomfort and hello to implants that feel and function just like natural teeth. With implants, you can brush and floss like normal and indulge in your favorite foods without any worries.

Achieve a Natural Look

Get ready to smile confidently with implants that are paired with durable and custom-crafted restorations. Our expert team ensures that your implant seamlessly blends with your natural smile, giving you a beautiful and natural-looking result.

Protect Your Oral Health

Preserve your oral health with implants made from biocompatible materials. These implants mimic the form and function of your natural tooth roots, preventing bone resorption caused by tooth loss and ensuring the long-term health of your jawbone.

Dental Implants Treatment Process

Placement

Once your treatment is given the green light, your doctor will work with you to schedule your oral surgery and develop a personalized surgical plan. During the procedure, Dr. Naylor will carefully create an opening in your gums and skillfully position a dental implant directly into your jaw bone. Afterward, the surgical site will be thoroughly cleaned and carefully sutured to kickstart the healing process.

Healing & Osseointegration

Experience a seamless recovery after your implant surgery. As your gums and jawbone heal, you'll notice remarkable progress in just 1-2 weeks, with the incision area fully healed. However, the true magic happens over the next 3-6 months as the implant securely fuses with your jawbone through the incredible process of osseointegration. Rest assured, our dedicated team will be there every step of the way, scheduling follow-up appointments during this crucial phase to ensure your healing is on track.

Applying the Restoration

Experience a complete smile transformation with our dental implant treatment. After the implant has seamlessly fused with your jaw, it's time for the final step - placing your restoration. This is the part of the implant that is visible and resembles a natural tooth. Our expert team will custom design a dental crown that perfectly matches your smile. With the crown securely attached to the titanium implant through an abutment, your smile will be flawlessly restored. Get ready to show off your new, confident smile!

Frequently Asked Questions

While every implant case is unique, some patients may be eligible to receive an implant in just one visit. In such cases, a temporary restoration is provided to protect the implant during the healing process, which typically takes between 3-6 months. During this time, you can speak and eat normally. Dr. Naylor will closely monitor your healing progress and take impressions or digital scans of your teeth to craft your final restoration. During your implant consultation, Dr. Naylor will guide you in choosing the best tooth replacement option based on your individual oral health needs.

With proper placement by an expert and regular maintenance, dental implants can last for 30 years or even a lifetime. However, it’s important to note that the restoration may need to be replaced over time due to regular wear and tear from chewing and biting. Just like traditional crowns or dentures, regular visits to the dentist will allow you to monitor the condition of your restoration and the health of your implant, ensuring the longevity of your smile.

While it is possible for dental implants to become infected, this complication is extremely rare and usually occurs when the implant is not properly cared for after the placement surgery. By following your doctor’s post-operative instructions, the chances of developing an infection are very low. It’s important to maintain good oral hygiene, including regular brushing, flossing, and professional cleanings, to keep your implant and surrounding tissues healthy.

Yes, dental implants are the only tooth replacement option that can prevent bone loss. When you lose a tooth, the jawbone no longer receives stimulation from chewing and biting, causing it to deteriorate over time. This can lead to a weakened jaw and the shifting or loosening of surrounding teeth. Dental implants mimic the function of natural tooth roots by being placed directly into the jawbone. This stimulation from chewing and biting forces helps to maintain the integrity of the jawbone and prevent bone resorption.

Dental implants are made using high-quality titanium in reputable laboratories. These labs offer a variety of standard post sizes for the implants. The restoration, on the other hand, is a personalized prosthetic that is tailored to meet each patient’s specific needs and aesthetic preferences. Dr. Naylor may create the restoration in-office using advanced technology or send detailed impressions to a trusted laboratory. The laboratory will then craft a durable and natural-looking crown made from porcelain, which closely resembles tooth enamel. Once completed, the crown is firmly attached to the implant by Dr. Naylor.

A single tooth implant is a popular dental solution that consists of three components. First, there is a titanium implant, which is shaped like a screw and serves as the foundation. Second, an abutment is used to connect the implant to the restoration. The restoration is the third component and is typically a dental crown that closely resembles a natural tooth. Unlike removable partial dentures, single tooth implants are stable and do not move or shift.
