The most lifelike way to replace failing or missing teeth in a localized area.
Single Tooth Implants or Multi-Tooth Implant Bridges are the best way to repair failing or missing teeth in a localized area.
A dental implant is a titanium screw that's placed into your jawbone which serves as the foundation to replace a tooth or teeth.
There are 3 parts to a dental implant:
Same-day smiles from actual patients
This pricing is the lowest in the area while also providing the best final result. We are able to achieve this by having a highly experienced dentist who performs the entire procedure from start to finish along with a highly trained in-house dental lab technician. They have performed this procedure from start to finish together countless times.

No, you don't necessarily need an implant for each missing tooth. For example, if you're missing 3 teeth in a row, we can place 2 implants and create a bridge that spans across all 3 teeth. This is more cost-effective than placing 3 individual implants.
At Birmingham Dental Implant Studio, a single tooth implant costs $2,899, and an implant bridge (replacing 3 teeth) starts at $7,899.

Most patients are candidates for dental implants! We'll just need to see you for a quick consultation to know for certain. During your FREE Consultation, we'll take a 3D scan of your jaw, our doctor will perform an oral examination of your mouth, and they will review your medical history with you.
After your dental implant procedure, you'll need to follow specific aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing. This includes keeping the surgical site clean, avoiding hard foods, and taking any prescribed medications. Our team will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions and schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your healing progress.
Some discomfort is normal after a dental implant procedure, but it's typically manageable with over-the-counter pain relievers or prescribed medications. Most patients report that the pain is less than they expected and subsides within a few days.
Minor bleeding is normal for the first 24-48 hours after the procedure. You'll be given gauze pads to apply gentle pressure to the surgical site. If bleeding persists or becomes heavy, contact our office immediately.
Yes! We offer a couple options for sedation depending on what is the right fit for you:
Oral Conscious Sedation involves a prescription for sedative pills that are prescribed to you by our doctor. Sedative medication is typically given the night before to help you sleep, as well as the morning of your procedure to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.
IV Sedation involves the intravenous administration of sedatives in order to put you in a diminished state of consciousness throughout the entire procedure. This also has other benefits for reducing post-operative swelling and pain.
In some cases, yes! This depends on several factors including the location of the implant, the stability of the implant at placement, and your specific case. Our doctor will discuss this option with you during your consultation.
Implant teeth are designed to look and feel like natural teeth. They're custom-made to match the color, shape, and size of your surrounding teeth, so they blend seamlessly into your smile.
Yes! Dental implants function and feel very similar to natural teeth. Once fully healed, you'll be able to eat, speak, and smile with confidence, just as you would with your natural teeth.
Most patients can return to work the next day, though some may prefer to take 1-2 days off for comfort. If you have a physically demanding job, you may want to take a few extra days off. Our doctor will discuss this with you based on your specific case.
The process typically involves: 1) Initial consultation and treatment planning, 2) Implant placement surgery, 3) Healing period (4-6 months for osseointegration), 4) Uncovering the implant and allowing gums to heal (2 weeks), 5) Taking impressions for the final crown or bridge, 6) Final placement of the abutment and crown/bridge.
Yes, implants can fail, though the success rate is very high (over 95%). Factors that can contribute to failure include infection, poor oral hygiene, smoking, diabetes, and certain medical conditions. Following our post-operative instructions and maintaining good oral hygiene significantly reduces the risk of failure.
In many cases, yes! We'll just need to see you for a consultation, during which we will do a 3D CBCT scan of your jaw to see if you have enough bone to support dental implants.
