Types of Dental Implants We Offer
Every patient's situation is different. At Smooth Sailing Dental, we offer several implant solutions to fit your specific needs:
-
Single-Tooth Implants — The gold standard for replacing one missing tooth. A titanium post is placed in the jawbone, topped with a custom crown that blends seamlessly with surrounding teeth.
-
Multiple Teeth Implants — For patients missing several teeth in different areas, individual implants can replace each missing tooth independently—no adjacent teeth need to be altered.
Not sure which type is right for you? Call (772) 464-2943, and our team will walk you through every option during your free consultation.
The Dental Implant Process — Step by Step
We make the implant process straightforward and as comfortable as possible:
-
Consultation & Evaluation with an Implant Dentist in Port St. Lucie — We perform a thorough exam, review your medical and dental history, and take digital X-rays or 3D cone beam scans to assess your bone structure and determine the ideal implant placement.
-
Treatment Planning — We create a personalized implant plan, confirm candidacy, and walk you through the timeline, costs, and what to expect at each stage of the implant placement process.
-
Implant Placement — The titanium post is surgically placed into the jawbone under local anesthesia. Most patients report minimal discomfort during, comparing it to a simple dental extraction.
-
Healing & Osseointegration — Over the following weeks, the implant fuses with your bone, a process called osseointegration. This is what gives implants their unmatched stability.
Abutment & Crown Placement — Once healed, a custom-made crown is attached to complete your new tooth. The result is indistinguishable from a natural tooth.
Aftercare & Maintenance — Implants are maintained just like natural teeth: regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups. With proper care, they can last a lifetime!

Are You a Candidate for Dental Implants?
Most healthy adults with missing teeth are good candidates for dental implants. The key requirements are:
-
Adequate jawbone density and volume to support the implant post
Healthy gums. Active gum disease must be treated before implant placement
Good overall health. Certain conditions (uncontrolled diabetes, active cancer treatment) may affect healing and candidacy
Non-smokers or patients willing to quit. Smoking significantly affects implant success rates
If you have been told in the past that you don't have enough bone for implants, bone grafting may still make you a candidate. The best way to know is to schedule a consultation call at (772) 464-2943.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) About Dental Implants
How much do dental implants cost in Port St. Lucie, FL?
The cost of dental implants in Port St. Lucie depends on the number of implants, whether bone grafting is needed, and the type of restoration required. At Smooth Sailing Dental, we provide a complete, transparent cost estimate before any treatment begins. Call us at (772) 464-2943 to discuss your specific situation and get a personalized estimate.
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. The titanium post that fuses with your jawbone is designed to be permanent, while the crown on top typically lasts 15–25 years before it may need replacement due to normal wear.
However, the longevity of your implant depends on good oral hygiene (brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits), avoiding habits like smoking or grinding your teeth, and maintaining overall health.
Are dental implants covered by dental insurance in Port St. Lucie?
Dental insurance coverage for implants varies widely by plan. Some plans provide partial coverage for implant-related procedures (like extraction, bone grafting, or crown placement) while others classify implants as cosmetic procedures and exclude them.
At Smooth Sailing Dental, our front desk team will verify your insurance benefits, so you know exactly what is covered.
What are the disadvantages or risks of dental implants?
Dental implants have an excellent long-term success rate — typically over 95% — but like any surgical procedure, there are factors to consider. The process requires multiple appointments over several months as the implant heals and integrates with the bone. During your consultation at Smooth Sailing Dental, we will honestly assess your candidacy and walk you through every consideration.
What is the most affordable way to get dental implants in Port St. Lucie?
The most affordable path to dental implants starts with an accurate consultation: cost varies significantly depending on your specific needs, and many patients qualify for more affordable options than they expect.
At Smooth Sailing Dental, we offer flexible financing plans that spread the cost into manageable monthly payments. We also work with most dental insurance plans to maximize any available coverage, so we will find a plan that works for your budget.
