Replace a Missing Tooth Without Touching Your Healthy Teeth
At Pearl Dental Group, we replace single missing or failing teeth with dental implants that look, feel, and function like a natural tooth. A single implant replaces the tooth root with a small titanium post, which then supports a custom crown designed to match your smile.
Unlike a traditional bridge, a single implant doesn’t require grinding down the healthy teeth on either side of the gap, and it helps preserve the jawbone where the tooth was lost.

Our Single Implant Process
1. Consultation & 3D scan. We examine the area with a 3D CBCT scan to check your bone and plan the ideal implant position.
2. Guided implant placement. Using a digitally planned surgical guide, your implant is placed precisely, with sedation options available for your comfort. If the tooth still needs to come out, the extraction and any bone grafting can often be done at the same visit.
3. Healing. Over the next few months, the implant bonds with your jawbone. In many cases, we can provide a temporary tooth so you’re never without a smile.
4. Your final crown. Our in-house lab designs and mills your custom crown to match the shape and shade of your surrounding teeth.
Most patients can move from consultation to implant placement in about two weeks.
Single Tooth Implant Cost & Financing
At Pearl Dental Group, single tooth implants start at $3,600, which includes the implant, custom abutment, and final crown. Your exact cost depends on whether you need an extraction or bone grafting, and we’ll give you a clear, written estimate at your free consultation.
Financing is available through Proceed Finance, CareCredit, Cherry, and Sunbit, and we can help you use your insurance benefits and HSA/FSA funds.
Single Implant vs. Bridge
A traditional bridge fills a gap by crowning the teeth on either side, which means reshaping healthy teeth that may never have needed treatment. Bridges also don’t replace the tooth root, so the bone under the gap can shrink over time.
A single implant stands on its own. It replaces the root, leaves your neighboring teeth untouched, and is cared for just like a natural tooth, with regular brushing and flossing. For most patients missing one tooth, it’s the longest-lasting option.

Frequently Asked Questions
A single tooth implant replaces one missing tooth from root to crown. A small titanium post is placed in the jawbone to act as the tooth root, and a custom abutment and crown are attached on top so the new tooth looks and functions like a natural one.
Most adults with a missing or failing tooth are good candidates, as long as their gums are healthy and there is enough bone to support the implant. If bone has been lost, a bone graft can often rebuild it. Your free consultation and 3D CBCT scan will show whether an implant is right for you.
Most patients can move from consultation to implant placement in about two weeks. The implant then needs a few months to bond with the jawbone before your final crown is placed. In many cases, a temporary tooth can be worn in the meantime.
The area is fully numbed during placement, and we offer IV sedation, oral sedation, and nitrous oxide for patients who want extra comfort. Most patients report mild soreness for a few days afterward that is managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.
At Pearl Dental Group, single tooth implants start at $3,600, including the implant, custom abutment, and final crown. Extractions or bone grafting can add to the cost. Financing is available, and we can help you use your insurance benefits.
With good home care and regular dental visits, the implant itself can last for decades, often a lifetime. The crown may eventually need to be replaced due to normal wear.
