If you’re missing one or more teeth, dental implants are the gold standard for restoring both your smile and your confidence. At Cosmetic & Family Dentistry of Concord, Dr. David Brothers and our experienced team provide advanced dental implant treatment for patients throughout Concord, Clayton, and Walnut Creek. With over 25 years of experience, Dr. Brothers combines skill, technology, and compassion to help you achieve a healthy, beautiful, and lasting smile.

What Are Dental Implants?

A dental implant is an artificial tooth root made of titanium that is surgically placed into the jawbone. Once the implant fuses with the bone in a process called osseointegration, a custom crown, bridge, or denture is attached to complete your restoration.

Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, dental implants are permanent, stable, and function just like natural teeth. They restore not only your smile’s appearance but also your ability to chew, speak, and live with confidence.

Benefits of Dental Implants

Choosing dental implants offers many advantages:

• Permanent and secure tooth replacement

• Natural look and feel — blends seamlessly with your existing teeth

• Prevents jawbone loss and supports facial structure

• Improves ability to chew and speak clearly

• Protects surrounding teeth from shifting

• Long-lasting results with proper care

Dental implants are designed to last for decades, making them a smart investment in both your oral health and your overall well-being.

Our Dental Implant Process

At Cosmetic & Family Dentistry of Concord, we make the dental implant process as smooth and comfortable as possible. Here’s what you can expect:

Step 1: Consultation & Exam
Dr. Brothers begins with a comprehensive evaluation, including digital X-rays and 3D imaging. He’ll discuss your goals and determine whether implants are the best solution for you.

Step 2: Implant Placement
The implant post is surgically placed into the jawbone. Thanks to modern techniques and sedation options, the procedure is safe, efficient, and comfortable.

Step 3: Healing & Osseointegration
Over the next few months, the implant fuses with your jawbone. This creates a secure foundation for your new tooth or teeth.

Step 4: Custom Restoration
Once healing is complete, Dr. Brothers attaches a custom crown, bridge, or denture crafted to match your natural smile. With advanced technology like CEREC same-day crowns, your restoration will be precise and lifelike.

Are Dental Implants Right for You?

Dental implants are a great option if you:

• Have one or more missing teeth

• Have healthy gums and sufficient jawbone density

• Want a permanent solution rather than removable dentures

• Are in overall good health

If you’ve been told you don’t have enough bone for implants, don’t worry — bone grafting or other preparatory procedures may make implants possible. Dr. Brothers will discuss all your options so you can make the choice that’s right for you.

Dental Implants vs. Dentures and Bridges

While dentures and bridges are common tooth replacement options, they can’t match the stability and health benefits of implants. Dentures may slip or feel uncomfortable, and bridges require reshaping surrounding teeth. Implants, on the other hand, stand independently, preserve jawbone health, and look and function like real teeth.

For patients considering alternatives, we also provide dentures in Concord and restorative dentistry in Concord, giving you comprehensive choices to fit your needs.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Implants

How long do dental implants last?
With proper care, dental implants can last 20 years or more — often a lifetime.

Are dental implants painful?
Most patients report minimal discomfort, similar to having a tooth extracted. Sedation and local anesthesia keep you comfortable during the procedure.

How much do dental implants cost in Concord?
The cost varies depending on the number of implants and whether additional procedures (like bone grafting) are required. During your consultation, we’ll provide a personalized estimate.

Will insurance cover dental implants?
Some dental insurance plans cover portions of the implant process. Our team will help you understand your benefits and financing options.
