Benefits of Dental Implants
Full Functionality
Dental implants provide full functionality, enabling you to eat, speak, and smile comfortably.
Versatility
Whether you need to replace a single tooth, multiple teeth, or an entire arch of teeth, dental implants offer a versatile solution.
Natural-Looking Results
Each prosthesis is crafted to seamlessly blend in with your existing teeth, resulting in a beautiful, natural appearance.
Easy Dental Care
Maintaining dental implants is as simple as caring for natural teeth. Regular brushing, flossing, and routine dental checkups are all that's required to keep them in optimal condition.
Dental Implant Surgery
Every oral surgery begins with a consultation. Your oral surgeon will carefully review your medical and dental history, conduct an oral evaluation, and discuss treatment options with you. 3D scans may be taken during this visit.
Depending on your specific case, immediate implants may be placed on the same day as the consultation, while other options may require a separate surgical appointment.
The surgical procedure begins with the administration of anesthesia. Once you are comfortable and the anesthesia has taken effect, your surgeon will skillfully place the dental implant post into the jaw bone. After the implants have been placed, the site will be sutured closed.
Over the next few weeks, the titanium implant post will gradually fuse with the jaw bone, creating a sturdy foundation to support the implant. After the healing period, your restorative dentist will place the custom-made crown.
To ensure a safe procedure and a smooth recovery, it is important to follow all the instructions provided by your surgeon. You can find general instructions on our website.
Types of Anesthesia
Our practice offers several types of anesthesia and sedation.
Cost of Dental Implants
The cost of oral surgery treatment varies and depends on several factors, including the number of implants needed, the type of dental implant, the type of anesthesia used, the complexity of the procedure, and the patient's medical/dental insurance coverage. If additional procedures, such as bone grafting, are part of the treatment plan, they will also affect the total cost.
During your first visit, we will provide a cost estimate and discuss payment options. Feel free to reach out to our office if you have any questions about your treatment.

Reviews From Our Dental Implants Patients
"Hi, my name's Ty. I'm from Stevensville. I came to Alpine Oral and Facial to get an extraction, and then I had to get two implants and bone grafting done. When I came in, very clean, very professional, very friendly staff. Everybody was really nice. Dr. Holtzen was great. He made sure I knew exactly what was going to happen. Made me feel very at ease. The procedure itself went absolutely fantastic. Very minimal recovery. I do feel that things are better being able to smile. It's pretty nice. Overall, the experience was absolutely fantastic. Very glad I came here. I would highly recommend Alpine Oral and Facial Surgery. I have told a few friends that need dental work done that this is where they should go."
