Care for Missing, Broken and Painful Teeth
Most of our patients arrive with one of three problems: a gap where a tooth used to be, a tooth that hurts, or a denture that no longer fits. Our Dental Implants, Dentures, Root Canals, Extractions and Wisdom Teeth Removal pages explain each treatment in detail, and we also see patients for urgent relief when a tooth cracks or flares up. The crowns and bridges we place come with a 5-year warranty, so the finished tooth on top of an implant or root canal is covered too.
Dental Implants
A titanium post and a custom crown that replace a missing tooth at the root, planned from a 3D scan with your PPO benefits checked first.
Emergency Dentistry
Relief for toothaches, swelling, broken teeth and lost crowns, with X-rays, photos and a written plan you can take to your insurer.
Dentures
Complete, partial and implant-retained dentures shaped around your bite, with clear answers on what your dental plan is likely to cover.
Root Canals
Gentle root canal treatment that clears infection from inside a tooth so you can keep it, with your benefits explained before we start.
Extractions
When a tooth can't be saved, we remove it gently, show you the X-rays behind the decision and help you understand what your plan may cover.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Removal of impacted or troublesome wisdom teeth, planned from a 3D scan and explained in writing, including what your insurance is likely to cover.

How a Visit Runs, From First Call to Finished Tooth
Every patient starts in the same place: a conversation and a careful look.
- 1
Your phone call
Tell us what is bothering you and which PPO plan you carry, if any. We book an appointment and check your benefits ahead of time so the visit is not spent on paperwork.
- 2
The $25 focused evaluation
This covers a comprehensive exam, digital X-rays, a CBCT scan if needed, and treatment planning and consultation. You see the images on screen and hear what we see.
- 3
A written treatment plan
We lay out each step, the timeline and the costs. For implants, that usually means placement, a few months for the bone to bond with the post, then the abutment and crown. We file a pre-treatment estimate with your plan when it makes sense.
- 4
Treatment and follow-up
We work gently, explain what you will feel, and check comfort as we go. After each stage we file the claim with supporting records and review any explanation of benefits with you.
What Shapes the Cost of Your Treatment
Two patients missing the same tooth can have very different treatment plans. The price follows what we find on the scan and what your plan allows. Here is what moves it.
After your evaluation we give you a written, line-item estimate showing our fee, what we expect your plan to pay, and your share. If the insurer's answer differs, we go over the new numbers with you before treatment continues.
- Bone and gum health
- An implant needs enough healthy bone to hold it. If a tooth has been missing for years, the bone often shrinks, and a graft may be needed before the implant goes in. Gum disease has to be treated first as well.
- Number of teeth involved
- A single implant with one crown is a different project from an implant bridge or an implant-supported denture. More teeth means more parts and more chair time.
- Crown and denture materials
- Zirconia, porcelain and acrylic each cost differently and wear differently. We explain which suits your bite and how the choice affects the fee.
- Your PPO plan's rules
- Annual maximums, frequency limits, waiting periods and missing tooth clauses all change what a PPO pays. Some plans cover the extraction and crown but not the implant post itself.
- Work needed first
- A cracked tooth may need removal, a site may need time to heal, or a nearby tooth may need a root canal. These steps add to the plan but protect the result.
About Our Practice
Highland Village Dental Implants focuses on the work that changes how people eat and smile: replacing teeth, saving the ones that can be saved, and relieving pain properly instead of patching it. We see adults and families, including many patients who have put off care because they were unsure what it would cost.
That uncertainty is something we take seriously. Dental insurance is confusing, and a surprise bill after treatment is a poor way to start trust. So we read your plan with you, keep careful records, and tell you plainly what we know and what only the insurer can decide.
Our office is calm and unhurried. We take time with the shade of a crown, the fit of a denture edge and the way your bite comes together, because those details decide whether new teeth feel like your own.
- Warranty
- 5-year warranty on crowns and bridges
Questions Patients Ask Us
Will my PPO insurance pay for dental implants?
It depends on your plan. Many PPO plans cover part of an implant, while others cover only the crown or exclude implants entirely, and a missing tooth clause can apply if the tooth was lost before your coverage began. We check your benefits and can send a pre-treatment estimate so the insurer answers in writing. We will not promise coverage the plan has not confirmed.
Which insurance plans do you accept?
We are in-network with 15+ major PPO dental insurance plans. Ask about your specific plan when you phone us and we will confirm it before your visit. If you have no dental coverage, our in-house Membership Plan is designed for you.
What does the $25 focused evaluation include?
It includes a comprehensive exam, digital X-rays, a CBCT scan if needed, and treatment planning and consultation. It is the right first visit for implants, dentures or a tooth that hurts. If you mainly want a checkup, our $89 New Patient Special covers a full exam and cleaning.
How long does the implant process take?
For most patients, a few months from placement to final crown. The bone needs time to bond with the implant post before it can carry a crown. If you need a bone graft or an extraction first, healing adds time, and we show you the full timeline in your treatment plan.
Do you offer a warranty on your work?
Yes. We provide a 5-year warranty on crowns and bridges. We explain what that covers when we review your treatment plan.
Can I spread out the cost?
Yes. We offer 0% interest financing for up to 24 months, and checking for preapproval has no credit score impact. Some patients also stage treatment across two benefit years to use two annual maximums, and we can tell you if that approach makes sense for your plan.
Is implant treatment painful?
Most patients describe it as pressure rather than pain. We numb the area thoroughly, work gently and pause whenever you need. Soreness afterward is usually mild for a few days, and we go over aftercare before you leave.
How We Look After Your Smile and Your Benefits
Good dentistry is half the visit. The other half is knowing what you will owe and why, before you sit in the chair.
Benefits read before treatment
We check your PPO plan's annual maximum, waiting periods and any missing tooth clause, then explain what that means for your treatment plan. When it helps, we send a pre-treatment estimate so the plan answers in writing first. We will not tell you a claim is approved until the insurer says so.
Records that support your claim
Insurers ask for proof. We keep dated digital X-rays, a CBCT scan when an implant needs one, intraoral photos and clear chart notes, and we include a written narrative with claims that need it. You get copies if you ask.
Restorations built to last
We choose crown materials for the job: zirconia where bite force is heavy, layered porcelain where the tooth shows when you smile. Our crowns and bridges carry a 5-year warranty.
Options without a sales pitch
Some teeth are worth saving with a root canal and a crown. Some are better removed and replaced. We show you the X-ray, explain both paths and let you decide.
Ways to pay if your plan falls short
We offer 0% interest financing for up to 24 months, and checking for preapproval has no credit score impact. Patients without dental coverage can join our in-house Membership Plan.
