What is a dental implant?

A dental implant replaces the root of a missing tooth. A small post is placed in the jawbone, and once it has healed, it supports a custom crown. At Bevan Dental, dental implants in Napa are planned carefully by Dr. Bevan, a graduate of gIDE implant training.

Why patients choose implants

  • They look, feel, and work like natural teeth
  • They don't rely on the neighboring teeth for support
  • They help maintain the jawbone where a tooth was lost
  • They're cleaned just like your other teeth

Planned with CBCT 3D imaging

Before treatment, we take a CBCT scan, a 3D image of your jaw that shows bone, nerves, and sinuses. It lets Dr. Bevan plan the implant's exact position for a strong, predictable result.

What to expect

  1. Consultation and 3D scan. We check your bone and gums and talk through your goals.
  2. Placing the implant. The area is fully numbed, and most patients are surprised by how comfortable it is.
  3. Healing. The implant bonds with your jawbone over time.
  4. Your custom crown. We attach an implant crown designed to match your teeth.

Is an implant right for you?

Implants are one of several good options, along with bridges and dentures. For several missing teeth, implant-supported dentures may be a great fit. Compare them in Dental implants, bridges, or dentures: How to choose

“I'd rather tell you the truth than talk you into something. If you're nervous, we slow down and keep things gentle. If something can wait, I'll tell you it can wait. After more than 25 years, I've learned that being honest and gentle is its own kind of warmth.”

Dental implant FAQs
What is a dental implant?

A dental implant replaces the root of a missing tooth. A small post is placed in the jawbone, and once it has healed, it supports a custom crown that looks and works like a natural tooth.

Am I a candidate for dental implants?

Most healthy adults who are missing one or more teeth can be candidates. You need enough healthy bone and gums to support the implant. We use CBCT 3D imaging to check your bone and plan carefully.

Does getting an implant hurt?

The area is fully numbed, and most patients are surprised by how comfortable it is. Some soreness afterward is normal and usually settles with over-the-counter pain relief.

How long does the implant process take?

It depends on your situation, because the implant needs time to bond with the bone before the final crown is placed. Dr. Bevan will walk you through your personal timeline at your consultation.

Implant, bridge, or denture: which is best?

All three work well, and the right choice depends on your mouth and priorities. Our post Dental implants, bridges, or dentures: How to choose compares them side by side.

Can I do a consultation online?

Yes. We offer a free online consult, so you can talk through your options from home before coming in. If you already have an implant plan from another office, ask about our free second opinion.

Does insurance cover dental implants?

Some PPO plans cover part of implant treatment. We accept all major PPO plans, and CareCredit lets you spread the cost into monthly payments.
