How can I replace my missing teeth?
If you are missing one or more teeth, dental implants may be a low-maintenance, long-lasting solution for you. Dental implants can restore the look and function of your smile, enhancing your oral health. They are custom-crafted to seamlessly blend in with the rest of your smile and are made with durable materials that can last a lifetime with proper care. Contact your dentist in Magnolia to schedule an implant consultation with Dr. Mike Tran.

What to expect at your implant consultation in Magnolia
The Initial Consultation
We will first meet you at our office for a consultation with Dr. Mike Tran. He will examine your mouth, take x-rays, and determine if you are a good candidate for implants by assessing your oral health needs and jaw bone density. Together, you and Dr. Mike Tran will decide if dental implants are the best option for restoring your smile, or if another restorative option is needed.
Your Oral Surgery Treatment
Upon approval of your treatment, Dr. Mike Tran will schedule an oral surgery appointment for you and give you a detailed treatment plan. To begin the procedure, Dr. Mike Tran will create a small incision in your gum line and place a dental implant into your jaw bone. The implant is a screw-shaped titanium post that bonds directly with your natural bone. In order to begin the healing process, he will clean, disinfect, and close the incision.
Healing & Osseointegration
Once the implants have been placed, your gums will begin to heal immediately. It usually takes less than two weeks for the gums to completely recover from the initial surgery. A process known as “osseointegration” takes between three and six months for the implant to permanently bond with the jaw bone.
Creating the Restoration
Your dental implant will be bonded successfully with your jaw after you visit our Magnolia office several times during the healing process. As part of the examination, Dr. Mike Tran will take impressions of your bite, which will then be sent to our trusted dental lab, which will fabricate a custom dental prosthetic for your implant.
Applying the Restoration
When your dental prosthetics are complete, and your implant has bonded with your jaw, you will return for your final appointment. During this visit, Dr. Mike Tran will finish up the procedure by attaching the restoration to your dental implant, permanently securing it with dental cement or another adhesive.
Maintenance & Aftercare
In addition to good oral hygiene, dental implants don't require any special care. Your dental implant can last you a lifetime with the right oral health habits, so make sure to brush twice a day, floss daily, and visit your Magnolia dentist every six months for routine cleanings and exams.
Dental Implant Options
Single Tooth Implants
Single tooth implants consist of two primary parts: the titanium post and a dental crown. A crown can be made from a variety of materials, is shaped like a tooth, and attaches to the implant post to complete the restoration. While the site heals, a dental crown is crafted and attached to the implant post via an "abutment." Crowns mirror the look and function of a natural tooth to blend in seamlessly with the rest of your smile. Dental crowns last for decades, while implants can last a lifetime. And unlike a partial denture, a single-tooth implant will never move around or shift in your mouth.
