Will my insurance cover my dental implant procedure?

Some insurance companies will cover a portion or all the costs of dental implant surgery. They may also cover pre-operative procedures, such as a sinus lift or bone grafting. We can review your benefits coverage before your treatment begins.

How much experience does the doctor have with dental implant placement and restoration?

Our dentist, Dr. Benjamin Hanson, received a Doctorate Degree in Dental Surgery at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor and has extensive experience performing dental implant surgery. In addition to serving as a general dentist in Brownstown, MI, Dr. Hanson is the sole Clinical Director of Implantology for Heartland Dental which supports over 800 dentistry practices.

How long does it take to get my teeth replaced with dental implants?

The dental implant placement procedure is performed in one visit but you will need to come back for a checkup and for the final implant restoration. If you end up needing a bone graft or other procedures before the placement procedure, you will need to plan for a few visits.

Is the procedure painful?

Dental implant surgery is performed in our office under IV sedation so most patients find it to be tolerable. Dr. Hanson and our team work hard to ensure patient comfort with any procedure and will walk you through the process so you know what to expect. Any post-op pain you experience is easy to manage with over-the-counter pain relievers and by placing an ice compress around the treated area.

How Dental Implants Work

Dental implants continue to be the leading solution for many patients with missing teeth because they are attached to the jaw bone. The placement phase involves attaching one or more dental implants directly to the jaw bone through a surgical procedure. Dr. Hanson uses guided implant surgery techniques to ensure optimal placement of dental implants and can perform preparatory procedures, such as bone grafting and tooth extractions, in-house before your procedure. Once the implants are surgically placed, they are left to heal for a few months until they are fully integrated with the bone. During this healing phase, your custom crown, denture or bridge will be designed. We perform the entire surgery and final restorations in our office so it’s easy for you to get the treatment you need for missing teeth.
