Dental Implants Can Rebuild a Full Set of Strong, Healthy Teeth
Missing teeth affects far more than just your smile. Every meal, every conversation, and every photo is a reminder of what is no longer there. Over time, tooth loss can change the way you eat, speak, and even the shape of your face.
At Arches Dental Care, Dr. Akkar Chokshi offers dental implants as a permanent, natural-looking solution to tooth loss that goes well beyond what dentures or bridges can provide. If you are ready to restore your smile and your confidence, we are here to help!
What Are Dental Implants?
Implant Post
The implant post is a small titanium anchor placed in the jawbone that fuses naturally with the bone to act as a secure, artificial tooth root.
The abutment connector is a small piece that attaches to the implant post, serving as the link between the implant and the final restoration.
The custom restoration is the visible portion, such as a crown, bridge, or denture, that is designed to match your natural teeth for a seamless, functional smile.

Dental Implant FAQs
Most adults in reasonably good health are strong candidates for dental implants. Some patients may need preparatory treatment, such as a bone graft or periodontal therapy, before implant placement can begin.
During your free consultation, Dr. Chokshi will give you a thorough, honest evaluation and tell you exactly where you stand. Full-arch protocols like All-on-X are also specifically designed to work for patients with significant bone loss who may not qualify for traditional implants.
Most patients are genuinely surprised by how comfortable the process is. Post-procedure discomfort is typically mild and manageable with over-the-counter medication. For patients with dental anxiety, we offer sedation options to keep you calm and comfortable from start to finish.
The cost depends on how many teeth are being replaced and whether any preparatory treatment is needed. At Carrington Square Dental, we provide a complete, itemized cost breakdown at your consultation so you always know what to expect. We accept most PPO insurance plans and offer financing through CareCredit, Sunbit, and Proceed Finance.
Many PPO insurance plans offer at least partial coverage for implant treatment. Our team will work with your insurance provider to help you maximize your benefits and understand exactly what your plan covers. We also offer multiple financing options to cover any remaining balance.
With consistent home care and regular professional maintenance, the implant itself is designed to last a lifetime. The restoration on top, whether a crown, bridge, or full-arch prosthesis, may eventually need to be replaced after years of normal wear, but the implant post itself is built to be a permanent solution.
Bone loss is common in patients who have been missing teeth for some time, but it doesn’t necessarily disqualify you. Dr. Chokshi offers bone grafting and sinus lift procedures to rebuild bone volume when needed. Full-arch protocols like All-on-X are also designed to work with reduced bone by placing implants in areas of greater density.
