What are dental implants?

A dental implant is a small titanium or zirconia post placed in the jawbone to replace a missing tooth root. After it fuses with the bone, a crown, bridge or denture is attached on top. Implants need enough healthy bone and gum to support them.

Dental implants: specialist or general dentist?

Implants are placed by oral surgeons, periodontists, and general dentists with extra implant training. Specialists are often recommended when bone grafting, sinus lifts, or full-arch cases like All-on-4 are involved. The crown is often made by a general dentist or prosthodontist.

11 of Washington's 124 clinics offering dental implants have an oral surgeon on staff. See oral surgeons in Washington

These are estimates, not quotes. Basis: DentistsRanked estimate from typical fees, adjusted for District of Columbia. Ask the clinic for a written estimate.

Do general dentists in Washington do dental implants?

Yes. 113 of the 124 Washington clinics offering dental implants do not list an oral surgeon, so general dentists there typically provide it. 11 list an oral surgeon on staff. Typical reasons to see an oral surgeon: bone loss that needs grafting, multiple missing teeth, full-arch replacement, or medical conditions affecting healing.

Are dental implants covered by insurance or Medicaid in District of Columbia?

Coverage for implants varies widely. Some dental plans cover part of the cost as major care, often subject to waiting periods and annual maximums; many do not. Medicaid rarely covers implants for adults. Ask for a written estimate.

Do dental implants hurt?

Implant placement is done under local anesthetic, and many clinics offer sedation, so most patients feel pressure rather than pain. Afterward, soreness and swelling for a few days are common. Many patients say recovery is similar to a tooth extraction.

Which Washington dental implants dentists are open on Saturday?

17 of 124 Washington clinics offering dental implants list Saturday hours, including Beautiful Smiles DC, Brandywine Dental Care and Dental Town DC. Hours come from each clinic's listing; check with the clinic before you go, since holiday and summer hours can change.
