Permanent Tooth Replacement That Looks and Feels Natural
Dental implants are a long-term solution for replacing missing teeth, offering both strength and aesthetics that closely mimic natural tooth structure. At Peach Dental in Atlanta, we use dental implants to restore oral function, prevent bone loss, and help patients regain the confidence to eat, speak, and smile comfortably.
Implants are anchored directly into the jawbone, creating a secure foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures. Whether you’re missing one tooth or several, implants provide a stable and lasting solution without compromising the health of neighboring teeth.
What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant consists of three main parts:
- Implant Post — A titanium or zirconia screw surgically placed into the jawbone to act as a replacement tooth root.
- Abutment — A connector that attaches to the implant and supports the restoration.
- Crown, Bridge, or Denture — The visible portion of the implant system, customized for a natural look and precise fit.
Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, dental implants integrate with your bone through a process called osseointegration. This makes them extremely durable and prevents bone deterioration in the area of the missing tooth.
Who Is a Candidate for Dental Implants?
Dental implants are an excellent option for adults with one or more missing teeth who are looking for a permanent, stable restoration. Ideal candidates typically have:
- Sufficient jawbone density to support the implant
- Healthy gums free from active periodontal disease
- A commitment to oral hygiene and routine dental care
- No untreated health conditions that could affect healing
In cases where jawbone loss has occurred, we may recommend bone grafting or platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) therapy to enhance healing and support implant stability.
Types of Dental Implants We Offer
At Peach Dental, we customize each treatment based on your specific needs, using advanced diagnostics and restorative techniques to ensure precision and comfort.
1. Single-Tooth Implants
Ideal for replacing one missing tooth without affecting neighboring teeth. A single implant is topped with a custom dental crown that looks and functions like a natural tooth.
2. Implant-Supported Bridges
Used when several adjacent teeth are missing. Two or more implants anchor a bridge in place, avoiding the need for traditional bridgework that relies on healthy teeth for support.
3. Full Arch Implants
A stable alternative to traditional dentures, full arch implants use four or more posts to support a complete upper or lower prosthesis. This provides better retention and eliminates the need for adhesives.
4. Implant Restoration Services
If you already have implants placed elsewhere and need a new crown or repair, we provide implant restoration services to keep your smile functional and attractive.
Our Implant Process
Peach Dental follows a comprehensive approach to dental implant treatment, ensuring safety, function, and aesthetics at every step.
- Evaluation and Planning
We use advanced imaging, including 3D CT scanning, to assess bone structure and map out precise implant placement. - Surgical Placement
The implant post is placed into the jawbone during a minimally invasive procedure, often with the help of sedation options for comfort. - Healing and Integration
The implant typically takes 3–6 months to fuse with the bone. During this time, we may place a temporary crown or bridge. - Final Restoration
Once the implant is secure, we attach a custom crown, bridge, or denture designed to match your surrounding teeth in shape and shade.
Our team supports you throughout the process with check-ins, hygiene recommendations, and personalized follow-up care.

FAQs About Dental Implants
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care, dental implants can last 20 years or more. The restoration on top may need replacement over time, but the implant post itself is built for longevity.
Is the implant procedure painful?
Most patients report minimal discomfort during and after the procedure. We offer sedation dentistry options and ensure that the surgical site is thoroughly numbed during placement.
Are dental implants better than dentures?
Implants provide a more stable and permanent solution than removable dentures. They also help maintain jawbone health and do not rely on adhesives.
Do implants require special care?
No special products are needed. Brush, floss, and visit your dentist regularly—just like you would with natural teeth.
Can smokers get dental implants?
Smoking can interfere with healing, but implants are still possible. We’ll evaluate your individual case and discuss how to optimize your chances for success.
