Answers to Your Most Common Questions About Implants

Considering dental implants but not sure where to start? At Bloom Implant Center, we understand that making a decision about your oral health can come with a lot of questions. Below, we’ve answered some of the most common questions we hear from patients exploring dental implant treatment.

Dental implants are small titanium posts that are surgically placed into your jawbone to replace missing teeth. They serve as a stable foundation for crowns, bridges, or full-arch restorations and are designed to look, feel, and function like natural teeth.

Most adults in good health are candidates for dental implants. During your consultation, we’ll evaluate your oral health, bone density, and medical history to determine if implants are the right solution for you. Even if you’ve been told you’re not a candidate elsewhere, our advanced techniques may still make treatment possible.

Dental implants have a success rate of 95% or higher when placed by experienced surgical teams and maintained with good oral hygiene. At Bloom Implant Center, we use digital planning, CBCT imaging, and surgical guides to maximize accuracy and outcomes.

With proper care, dental implants can last decades—and in many cases, a lifetime. Routine oral hygiene, regular checkups, and avoiding tobacco use will help protect your investment long-term.

Most patients report little to no pain during the procedure, especially with in-house IV sedation, which allows you to relax and remain comfortable throughout treatment. Post-operative discomfort is usually mild and can be managed with over-the-counter medication or prescriptions as needed.

Yes. At Bloom Implant Center, we offer in-house IV sedation administered by a licensed provider. It allows you to enter a deeply relaxed state during surgery while remaining responsive and safe. It’s ideal for patients with dental anxiety or those undergoing complex procedures.

Most patients are able to return to normal daily activities within a few days, although full healing of the implant site may take several months. We’ll provide personalized recovery instructions and schedule follow-ups to monitor your progress.

Yes. Many patients transition from traditional dentures to implant-supported solutions for improved comfort and function. We offer fixed full-arch restorations, All-on-X, and snap-in dentures depending on your preferences and oral health condition.

Coverage varies by provider and plan. While many insurance plans do not cover implants entirely, they may help with portions of the procedure. Our team will review your benefits and help you understand your financing options.

Thanks to modern advancements in surgical dentistry, we can often help patients with bone loss through grafting procedures or alternative implant techniques such as angled placement. We’ll evaluate your bone structure using digital imaging and guide you toward the safest, most effective solution.
