Premier Dental Implants in The Woodlands and Conroe

Dental implants are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth. The person who has lost teeth regains the ability to eat virtually anything and can smile with confidence, knowing that teeth appear natural and that facial contours will be preserved. The implants themselves are tiny titanium posts that are placed into the jawbone where teeth are missing. The bone bonds with the titanium, creating a strong foundation for artificial teeth. In addition, implants can help preserve facial structure, preventing the bone deterioration that occurs when teeth are missing.    

Dr. Saunders has placed more than 7,000 implants over the past 30 years with great success.  If you feel implant dentistry is the choice for you, we invite you to take advantage of a complimentary 3D Scan, exam, and financial consult where you can meet Dr. Saunders and discuss all of your questions and options.  Your questions and concerns are important to us and the PCE Team will work with you very closely to help make your solution a success. During this time the PCE Team will also review your insurance coverage and available financing options. There are many types of insurance plans with varying dental implant coverage and we will be happy to assist you in understanding and obtaining any benefits to which you may be entitled. Regardless of your insurance coverage, we will also show you multiple financing options that can make your procedure more affordable.  

Our Conroe Implant dentist primarily uses titanium implants. Titanium is extremely strong, resistant to corrosion (which is important since it’s constantly exposed to saliva), lightweight, hypoallergenic for people with metal sensitivity or allergies, and is the color of silver.

New developments are being worked out to create durable, predictable ceramic dental implant designs. Since ceramics are tooth colored, they eliminate some aesthetic concerns associated with possible implant exposure. But a great cosmetic dentist can still place a custom ceramic crown over traditional titanium implants to keep them looking great!

Let our Conroe Implant dentist know if you have specific smile makeover goals that you want to achieve, as titanium is still the best implant material available.

Replacing one missing tooth used to mean getting a dental bridge attached to two healthy teeth on either side of your missing one. If you have healthy enamel, it would need to be ground down so that a bridge could fit over it. 

Single tooth dental implants are non-invasive to other teeth, helping you protect your healthy smile and avoiding unnecessary tooth alteration. 

With individual tooth replacement, an implant is set into the location of the missing tooth. On top, an abutment extends through the gums and into your mouth, providing a base for the fixed restoration. Then, a Conroe cosmetic dentist attaches a porcelain crown on top of the abutment, finishing off the overall unit. 

When you smile in the mirror, your single tooth implant and crown blend in with all of your other teeth! And the best part is that no other teeth had to be altered in the process.

With our TeethXpress option, you can enjoy the benefits of dental implants across your entire smile. This fast implant treatment provides full mouth restoration when you need to replace all of your teeth at one time.

The functional and design benefits of dental implants mean that your permanent prosthesis will be more comfortable than wearing a removable denture. Instead, you’ll have a streamlined hybrid device that never slips out of place and won’t cover the roof of your mouth. That way it’s easier to talk and enjoy the flavors of all your favorite foods!

Many people who are missing several teeth or wear fixed-bridges, removable partial-dentures or conventional dentures don’t like the way they look or function. The TeethXpress procedure offers a much better solution to achieving an attractive, natural looking smile. Your dental implant supported teeth will allow you to eat your favorite foods again and go about your daily life with confidence! Dr. Saunders is a Certified TeethXpress Provider and can help determine if the TeethXpress procedure is the solution for you.  With a complimentary 3D Scan, exam, and financial consult the PCE Team will provide everything you need for you to make the decision that is right for you.
