Gold Dental offers dental implants for patients in Petersburg, VA who want the most permanent, natural-feeling solution for missing teeth. A dental implant is a small titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone, where it fuses with the bone over time and acts as an artificial tooth root. A custom crown is then attached to the implant, giving you a replacement tooth that looks, feels, and functions just like a natural tooth.
Unlike dentures, dental implants do not slip or require adhesive. Unlike bridges, they do not require grinding down adjacent healthy teeth. Implants also stimulate the jawbone and prevent the bone loss that occurs naturally when teeth are missing. With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime.
Dental implants are an excellent option for patients who are missing one tooth, several teeth, or all of their teeth. Patients who have lost an entire arch of teeth may benefit from implant-supported dentures, which snap onto implants for a much more stable fit than traditional dentures. We also offer All-on-4 implant solutions for patients who need full-arch reconstruction.
Do not assume that Cardinal Care Smiles covers dental implants or implant-supported restorations. The DMAS adult benefit summary does not list implants as a covered benefit. Ask DentaQuest to confirm the proposed procedure codes and any applicable criteria before treatment, and request an itemized estimate if the proposed care is not covered. Denture coverage does not establish coverage for implants.
Implant suitability depends on your overall health, bone density, and gum health. Financing and payment plans are available; ask about terms, consultation fees, and an itemized estimate.
