Important Implant Information
Dental Implant Cost
Investing in dental implants in McKinney is a long-term solution that offers exceptional value. The price varies depending on several factors, including the number of implants needed, whether bone grafting is required, and the type of restoration.
While dental implants may have a higher initial cost than alternatives like bridges or dentures, their durability and longevity often make them more cost-effective over time. We offer transparent pricing and work with various insurance providers to maximize your benefits.
Dental Implant Bone Grafting
For successful implant placement, adequate jawbone density is essential. When tooth loss occurs, the underlying bone often begins to deteriorate, potentially leaving insufficient bone to support an implant.
Bone grafting rebuilds or strengthens the jawbone, creating a solid foundation for your dental implants. This preparatory step significantly increases success rates for patients with bone loss.
Dental Implant Surgery
Dental implant surgery at our McKinney practice is a precise, carefully planned procedure. Dr. Choi utilizes 3D imaging to create a detailed surgical plan tailored to your unique oral anatomy.
Most patients are surprised by how comfortable the process is, as we offer various sedation options to ensure your comfort during treatment.
Are Dental Implants Safe?
Dental implants are widely recognized as a safe, effective solution for tooth replacement with a success rate over 95%. Dr. Choi uses titanium or zirconia — biocompatible materials that naturally integrate with bone.
Our pre-surgical assessment ensures you're an ideal candidate for the procedure, while rigorous protocols prioritize your safety.

See The Difference
Transformative Results
Our dental implant procedures provide remarkable transformations for our patients. With advanced techniques and precise placement, we help restore not just your smile, but your confidence and quality of life.
Whether replacing a single tooth or an entire arch, our implants are designed to look and function like natural teeth. The difference is clear in both appearance and functionality.
Dental Implant Recovery
Recovery after dental implant surgery in our McKinney practice is typically straightforward and manageable for most patients. Immediately following your procedure, you may experience some swelling and mild discomfort, which can be effectively managed with prescribed or over-the-counter pain medications.
Most patients return to their normal activities within a day or two. While the surgical site heals quickly, the complete integration of the implant with your jawbone—a process called osseointegration—takes approximately 3-4 months.
During this healing period, we'll provide comprehensive aftercare instructions and schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress. Our McKinney patients often remark that the recovery process was much easier than anticipated, and the temporary adjustments to their routine were well worth the permanent results.
What Our Patients Say
Frequently Asked Questions
Zirconia implants offer several advantages: they're metal-free, making them ideal for patients with metal sensitivities; they have excellent biocompatibility; they're less prone to plaque accumulation; they provide superior aesthetics with no gray line at the gum; and they support holistic health approaches by eliminating potential metal-related concerns.
The complete process typically takes 3-4 months. The implant is surgically placed in your jawbone, then we allow time for osseointegration (integration of the implant with your bone). Most patients return to normal activities within 1-2 days after the initial surgery, and the surgical site heals quickly. The entire process from implant placement to final restoration occurs in stages to allow for proper healing and integration.
All-on-4 is an innovative approach that secures an entire arch of fixed, non-removable teeth on just four strategically placed dental implants. It utilizes the available bone efficiently, often eliminating the need for extensive bone grafting even in cases of significant bone loss. Many patients choose All-on-4 as an affordable, permanent alternative to traditional dentures, appreciating the stability and comfort of fixed teeth that never need to be removed for cleaning.
Adequate jawbone density is essential for successful implant placement. When tooth loss occurs, the underlying bone often begins to deteriorate, potentially leaving insufficient bone to support an implant. Bone grafting rebuilds or strengthens the jawbone, creating a solid foundation for your dental implants. Using either human donor bone material or bovine bone graft, we can restore bone volume and density, significantly increasing the success rate of dental implants for patients with bone loss.
Coverage varies by insurance provider and plan. While dental implants may have a higher initial cost than alternatives like bridges or dentures, their durability and longevity often make them more cost-effective over time. At North Texas Dental Surgery, we offer transparent pricing and work with various insurance providers to maximize your benefits. Additionally, we provide flexible financing options to help make this life-changing treatment accessible.
