Dental Implants: Cost, Procedure, Types &
Permanent Tooth Replacement
Restore missing teeth with a secure, natural-looking solution designed for long-term function and confidence. At Shifa Dental, we use advanced 3D imaging and personalized treatment planning to deliver predictable, high-quality dental implant results, with care available at our Plano and Garland locations.
What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a small titanium post that replaces the root of a missing tooth. It is placed gently into the jawbone, where it heals and bonds naturally with the bone over time.
Once healed, a custom-made crown is attached on top, giving you a tooth that looks, feels, and functions like a natural one.
Unlike dentures or traditional bridges, dental implants are fixed in place. They do not move or slip — and they help protect your jawbone and facial structure long-term

The Dental Implant Process: Step-by-Step
Consultation & Imaging
We perform a detailed oral examination, digital X-rays, and CBCT imaging to assess bone density and gum health.
Treatment Planning
If necessary, procedures such as bone grafting may be recommended to ensure long-term implant success.
Implant Placement
Under local anesthesia, the titanium implant is placed into the jawbone. Most patients report minimal discomfort.
Healing & Osseointegration (3–6 Months)
The implant bonds naturally with your jawbone, forming a stable foundation.
Abutment & Crown Placement
A custom-made crown is attached, designed to match your natural teeth in size, shape, and color.
Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants offer both cosmetic and health advantages:
Who Is a Candidate for Dental Implants?
You may qualify if you:
- Are in good overall health
- Have healthy gums
- Have bone availability or grafting
- Do not smoke (or are willing to quit)
- Practice good oral hygiene
Even if you have experienced bone loss, you may still qualify with bone grafting.
Aftercare for Long-Term Success
To maximize the lifespan of your dental implants:
- Brush twice daily with a soft-bristle toothbrush
- Floss daily
- Use antibacterial mouthwash if recommended
- Visit your dentist every six months
- Avoid smoking
With proper care, dental implants can last decades.
Safety, Success Rate & Technology
Dental implants have high success rates when performed by trained professionals using modern diagnostic tools.
While complications are rare, potential risks include:
- Infection
- Delayed healing
- Implant failure
- Nerve irritation (very rare with proper planning)
Our advanced digital imaging significantly reduces surgical risk and enhances precision. Proper case selection, surgical planning, and patient compliance are critical factors in maintaining high long-term success rates.
When Bone Grafting May Be Necessary
Many patients who were previously told they were not candidates for implants may still qualify with proper bone augmentation and digital planning.
In cases where jawbone density is insufficient, bone grafting may be recommended prior to implant placement. This procedure rebuilds bone volume and enhances long-term implant stability.
CBCT imaging allows us to accurately assess bone quality and determine whether grafting is required before proceeding.
Dental Implant Cost & Long-Term Value
The cost of dental implants varies depending on your specific needs, the number of teeth being replaced, and the type of restoration used. While implants may have a higher upfront cost compared to other options, they are designed to be a long-term solution for replacing missing teeth.
Price Ranges from :
- Single Dental implant: $2,500 - $6,000
- Implant-supported bridge: $6,000 - $15,000
- Full-mouth implant: $15,000 - $30,000+
Exact cost depends on several factors including:
- Number of implants needed
- Type of restoration (single tooth, bridge, or full arch)
- Bone grafting or additional procedures
- Materials used and treatment complexity
A personalized consultation with 3D imaging allows our team to determine the most effective treatment plan and provide an accurate estimate.
To make treatment more accessible, we offer flexible financing options and can help you understand available payment plans and insurance benefits.
