Our goal is to ensure that every patient has access to the life-changing benefits of dental implants, regardless of budget concerns.
Discover If You’re Ready for Implants
Dental implants are an excellent solution for most patients with missing teeth, but a few factors can determine whether you are ready for treatment. In general, ideal candidates:
- Have sufficient bone density to support implant posts, or are willing to undergo bone grafting if needed
- Are in good oral health without active gum disease or untreated decay
- Do not smoke, since smoking interferes with healing and implant success
- Want a long-term, stable replacement that looks and feels like natural teeth
Dr. Kearney will perform a comprehensive evaluation using advanced 3D imaging to assess your jawbone and oral structures. If you are not an immediate candidate, he can recommend preparatory treatments to help you qualify.
Implant Restorations for Every Smile
No two smiles are alike, and your implant treatment will be customized to the number of teeth you need to replace. At our Cary practice, Dr. Kearney designs restorations that restore both function and confidence:
Single Tooth Loss
If you're missing one tooth, a single dental implant topped with a custom crown is the most natural-looking solution. It restores your bite without altering the surrounding teeth, and the implant post replaces the tooth root to preserve bone health for years to come.
Multiple Missing Teeth
Implant-supported bridges provide seamless replacement for patients missing several teeth in a row. These restorations are anchored to dental implants for stability and eliminate the need to rely on natural teeth for support.
Complete Tooth Loss
Implant-supported dentures offer unmatched security and comfort compared to traditional dentures when all the teeth in the upper or lower arch are missing. You can eat, speak, and smile with confidence knowing your denture won't shift.
Not sure which is right for you? Dr. Kearney will examine your mouth to determine the appropriate restoration to help restore your smile during your consultation in Cary.
Transforming Your Smile Through Full Mouth Care
For patients with widespread dental issues, full mouth reconstruction may be the best way to restore both oral health and aesthetics. This comprehensive approach combines multiple restorative and cosmetic treatments to rebuild your smile.
Dental implants often play a central role in full mouth reconstruction. By replacing missing or severely damaged teeth with implant-supported crowns, bridges, or dentures, Dr. Kearney can re-establish a stable foundation for your bite. Implants also prevent jawbone loss, ensuring your results are not only beautiful but also long-lasting.
With over 30 years of experience and advanced training from the Las Vegas Institute, Dr. Kearney has the expertise to design a reconstruction plan tailored to your needs. Whether you require a few implants or a full arch of replacement teeth, he can coordinate every aspect of your treatment to deliver a healthy, functional, and natural-looking smile.
What to Expect During the Dental Implant Process
Getting dental implants is a multi-step process, but each stage is carefully planned to ensure long-term success. Dr. Kearney will guide you through every phase at our Cary office.
Consultation and Planning
Your journey will begin with an in-depth consultation where Dr. Kearney evaluates your oral health, reviews your medical history, and takes detailed 3D scans. This advanced imaging helps him to design a precise treatment plan.
Implant Placement
Once you're for surgery, Dr. Kearney will place the titanium implant posts into your jawbone. Placement is performed under local anesthesia, and sedation is available for patients with anxiety or longer procedures. The posts act as artificial tooth roots and create a stable foundation for your future restorations.
Healing and Osseointegration
Over the next three to six months, the implants will fuse with your jawbone in a process called osseointegration. We'll provide temporary restorations, so you'll never have to go without a complete smile.
Abutment and Restoration
Dr. Kearney will attach abutments (connector pieces) to the implants once you've healed, then complete the process with your restorations. We'll custom-design your crown, bridge, or denture to feel natural with your bite and blend seamlessly with your surrounding teeth.
