Restore Your Smile with Dental Implants
A dental implant is an artificial root where a manufactured tooth can be placed. Dental implants are used to support the replacement of a single tooth, multiple teeth, or larger prostheses such as dentures. The placement of the dental implant stabilizes bone levels and could prevent bone loss, resulting in greater long-term support, function, and aesthetics. Dental implants are a superior way to replace missing teeth since they do not require the alteration of neighboring teeth. They are also an excellent way to stabilize a denture. At Peachtree Corners Dentistry, we are known for our work in implant dentistry in Peachtree Corners, GA and are excited to offer this service to the community. If you think you would be a good candidate for dental implants, schedule a complimentary consultation for dental implants in Peachtree Corners today.

Dental Implants: The Ideal Solution for Tooth Loss
- Look Natural – Unlike other tooth replacements, dental implants are custom-matched to your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless, natural-looking smile.
- Comfortable – Dental implants offer a pain-free, permanent solution that allows you to enjoy your favorite foods without discomfort once healed.
- Easy to Care For – Dental implants are permanent and easy to maintain. Simply brush and floss them like your natural teeth, with no need for removable dentures or bridges.
- Maintain Oral Health – Unlike bulky dental appliances that can cause bone loss and gum irritation, dental implants protect your jaw and gums, promoting overall oral health.
- Long-Lasting – Designed to last a lifetime, dental implants are the only tooth replacement option that offers such long-term durability.
How Do Dental Implants Work?
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically inserted into your jawbone to act as artificial "tooth roots," providing a sturdy foundation for securing your new tooth, bridge, or denture. Once placed, each implant is topped with a custom-designed dental crown, which not only restores the functionality of your tooth for chewing but also seamlessly blends in with the rest of your natural teeth to enhance your smile. This modern, effective solution for tooth restoration ensures a long-lasting and secure result. At Peachtree Corners Dentistry, we take it a step further by offering advanced same-day dental crowns, allowing our skilled dentists to create and place your crown in just one visit, making the restoration process quicker and more convenient than ever.
What Type of Dental Implant Do I Need?
At Peachtree Corners Dentistry, we will recommend the type of dental implant that will best address your tooth loss needs. A consultation with Dr. Skelton will help determine the most suitable dental implant option for achieving your ideal smile.
Single Dental Implant
If you've lost a single tooth due to decay or injury, a single dental implant can help restore your smile and confidence. A titanium dental implant, combined with a custom-made dental crown, replaces both the root and visible surface of your missing tooth.
With a dental implant, you can smile, speak, and enjoy your favorite foods just as comfortably as you did with your natural tooth!
Single Dental Implant
Implant-retained dentures, or "overdentures," can significantly improve the quality of life for many patients. Missing teeth often make everyday tasks like chewing and speaking difficult. At Peachtree Corners Dentistry, patients can enjoy the comfort and stability of removable "snap-in" dentures, securely held in place by dental implants, offering relief from the discomfort and inconvenience of traditional dentures.
All-on-4® Dental Implants
With All-on-4 dental implants, also known as "Teeth-in-a-Day," your implants are securely anchored together with a prosthesis, allowing you to enjoy your new teeth right away. This permanent, non-removable solution provides immediate results. If you're a good candidate for All-on-4 implants, you can expect to have your restored teeth in just one day. While each case is unique, our skilled team at Peachtree Corners Dentistry will complete most of the work before your implant surgery to ensure a smooth and efficient process.
Hybrid Implant Dentures
Hybrid implant dentures offer an innovative solution for patients needing to replace full rows of teeth. This restorative procedure involves dentures that are permanently secured to dental implants, providing a stable and comfortable fit. Hybrid implant dentures are an excellent choice for those who currently wear dentures but experience gum irritation or discomfort from slippage.
How Do I Prepare for My Dental Implants Treatment?
In some cases, patients may require preliminary treatments to prepare their mouths for dental implants. After a consultation, Dr. Skelton may suggest one of the following procedures to ensure you're fully prepared for your dental implants:
- Bone Graft
- Gum Graft
- Socket Preservation
Dental Implant Restoration
