Dental Implants Lucas
A New Standard for Replacing Missing Teeth
When it comes to replacing missing teeth, dental implants have quickly become the number one recommended solution, since they’re the next-best-thing to your natural teeth. They’re the only type of restoration that can restore a lost tooth from root to crown, plus they even have the potential to last for life. To schedule your appointment and see if dental implants are a good option for restoring your smile, just contact our Lucas office.

What are Dental Implants?
Dental implants refer to small, titanium posts that can be surgically placed beneath the gumline, directly into a patient’s jawbone. They’re able to safely fuse with the bone tissue and serve as replacement tooth roots, which provide both stimulation to the jaw as well as support for a custom-made dental restoration. Dental implants can replace any number of missing teeth, no matter where they are located inside the mouth.
The 4 Step Dental Implant Process
- Initial Dental Implant Consultation – You’ll first meet with Dr. Hubler at our office so that he can inspect your smile and determine if you’re a good candidate for dental implants.
- Dental Implant Surgery – We can place dental implants right here in our Lucas office, meaning you won’t need to coordinate with other offices to restore your smile.
- Dental Implant Osseointegration/Abutment – After the surgery, the implant posts need to fuse with your jaw to form a permanent bond that can support your replacement teeth.
- Delivery of Dental Implant Restoration(s) – Once everything has healed, a custom-made dental restoration can be attached to the abutments on top of your implants, fully restoring your smile in terms of look and function.
Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants don’t just fill the gaps in your smile; they offer all kinds of life-changing benefits, like:
- They restore most of your original biting force.
- They provide stimulation to your jaw and prevent bone resorption.
- They don’t require specialized care or hygiene products.
- With the right care, they can last for decades or even a lifetime.
