Dental Implants Marietta “You change lives from the inside out!!”

Hear From a Real Patient, Tedra

Tedra had a lot of problems with her teeth. She couldn't eat, she was in pain, and she didn't even want to go out in public. After receiving implants at our Marietta office, she says Atlanta West Dentistry, “changed my life immensely. They treat you like you're a part of the family." Tedra is so happy to have found her dental office for life, and she wouldn't go anywhere else.

With the advanced All-on-4® method, patients with complete tooth loss can receive a new smile in just one day.

Tooth loss is often followed by bone loss. Traditionally, patients with bone loss often required preparatory bone grafting before qualifying for implant-supported dentures. That's no longer the case, thanks to All-on-4.

Using the All-on-4 method, your dentist can place a denture using just four strategically positioned dental implants along an arch. Two of these implants are inserted at an angle to maximize your existing bone material. All-on-4 dentures can often be placed on the same day as implant surgery, so Marietta implant patients don't need to wait for their new smile. 

Prices vary depending on factors like preparatory dentistry and sedation, and more complex care plans will carry additional fees. The cost of All-on-4 implants varies from traditional implant dentistry as well. Things to know about our office:

1. We provide a personalized quote for Marietta dental implant patients after assessing your smile during a free consultation, even if you've received a quote for dental implants from another dentist and want a second opinion
2. While we do accept most dental insurance, dental implant costs are often not covered. However, your plan may cover other parts of treatment, like the restoration. We will verify your coverage to maximize your benefits. 
3. To help cover other expenses or to help if you do not have dental insurance, you can finance your dental implants. We accept CareCredit®, Sunbit, and Proceed financing. This allows patients to break the cost of their treatment into affordable monthly payments. 
4. We also offer an in-house dental saving plan that includes a discount on needed treatments. 

Our Marietta, GA, dental practice charges between $6,000 & $7,000 for a dental implant, abutment, & implant-supported crown. 

As with any surgery, there are a few risks associated with dental implant placement, like bleeding, infection, and implant failure, but you should know that they are incredibly low. Dental implants have been the industry standard for restoring smiles for decades now, and there are scores of studies that demonstrate the long-term success of this treatment.

According to the American Academy of Implant Dentistry, implants have a 95% success rate.

Your smile is even safer in the hands of experienced implant dentists, like the ones at Atlanta West Dentistry in Marietta. Dr. Benjamin Shepperd, for example, has vast experience in using our cutting-edge technologies to plan and perform treatment for especially complex cases. 

Did you know that, once placed in your jaw, your dental implants can last your entire life? While even premium restorations will need to be replaced after 15 years or so, the foundation of your smile can stay soundly in place forever.

It's easy to upgrade to a new crown, bridge, or denture when the time comes, too. Our Marietta implant dentists can use the scans and designs from your previous visits to guide the fabrication of an identical, but refreshed, restoration. Having it placed is a quick and painless process that takes one appointment, and you'll then be able to continue enjoying your fully functional smile for years to come.

Investing in dental implants now can save you time on dentistry down the line and buy you peace of mind for a lifetime. Interested in going from an incomplete smile to a fully functional set of teeth you can treat just like the real thing? Our Marietta implant dentists are waiting to hear from you. Get in touch online or give us a call to set up your free dental implant consultation.

We create crowns, bridges, and dentures from high-grade materials like porcelain, IPS e.max® (a durable type of pressed ceramic), and Lava™ Premium zirconia. These materials are carefully selected for their toothlike durability and semitranslucent look. This means they absorb and reflect light in the same way natural teeth do, so your new smile will have none of that obvious "one-tone" artificial look. Our Marietta implant dentists will shade-match your restorations to the natural shade of your surrounding teeth for even more subtle results.
