Missing teeth can affect more than just your smile—they can impact your confidence, your speech, your ability to chew, and even your jawbone health. If you’re searching for a reliable, long-term solution to tooth loss, dental implants may be the answer.
At Shifa Dental in Garland, TX, we specialize in restoring smiles with high-quality dental implants that look, feel, and function like your natural teeth. Whether you’re missing one tooth or several, our expert team is here to help you regain the confidence and comfort that comes with a healthy, complete smile.
What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are small, screw-like titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone where teeth are missing. Once healed, they serve as a strong foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures.
The implant integrates with your bone in a process called osseointegration, creating a stable and permanent base—just like a natural tooth root.
Why Choose Dental Implants?
Here’s why dental implants are considered the gold standard in tooth replacement:
🦷 Permanent & Long-Lasting – With proper care, implants can last a lifetime.
🦷 Look & Feel Natural – Implants are customized to match your natural teeth in shape and color.
🦷 Preserve Jawbone Health – Implants prevent bone loss by stimulating the jawbone like real teeth.
🦷 Improved Speech & Comfort – Unlike dentures, implants won’t slip or shift in your mouth.
🦷 No Special Maintenance – Just brush and floss like normal.
🦷 Support Surrounding Teeth – Implants prevent neighboring teeth from shifting into empty spaces.
Are You a Good Candidate for Dental Implants?
You may be a great candidate if you:
✅ Are missing one or more teeth
✅ Have healthy gums and sufficient jawbone
✅ Don’t smoke (or are willing to quit during healing)
✅ Are in good general health
✅ Are committed to proper oral hygiene
If your jawbone has deteriorated, bone grafting may be recommended to rebuild support for the implant.
At Shifa Dental Garland, we perform a comprehensive evaluation including X-rays and 3D scans to determine if implants are right for you.
Types of Dental Implants We Offer
We provide a full range of implant solutions depending on your needs:
1. Single Tooth Implants
Perfect for replacing one missing tooth. The implant supports a custom-made crown that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth.
2. Implant-Supported Bridges
Ideal for multiple missing teeth in a row. Two or more implants anchor a bridge, eliminating the need to grind down healthy teeth.
3. All-on-4® or Full-Arch Implants
Replace an entire upper or lower arch using just 4–6 strategically placed implants. A fixed denture is secured to the implants for a strong, permanent solution.
4. Implant-Supported Dentures
Removable dentures that “snap” onto implants for better fit, stability, and function compared to traditional dentures.
What to Expect: The Dental Implant Process
🦷 Step 1: Consultation & Treatment Plan
We begin with a detailed consultation, dental exam, and 3D imaging. This allows us to create a personalized treatment plan just for you.
🦷 Step 2: Implant Placement
Under local anesthesia (and optional sedation), the implant is placed into your jawbone. Healing typically takes 3–6 months.
🦷 Step 3: Abutment & Restoration
Once healed, a small connector called an abutment is attached. Then, we place your crown, bridge, or denture—crafted to match your smile perfectly.
