Dental Implants in Tucson, AZ

Missing teeth can impact not only how your smile looks, but also how it functions. At John R. Carson, DDS, PC, we offer advanced dental implants in Tucson to help patients permanently replace missing teeth with durable, natural-looking restorations.

Whether you’re missing one tooth, several, or require full-arch replacement, dental implants provide a strong, aesthetic, and long-term solution that protects your oral health. Serving patients throughout the Tanque Verde area and greater Northeast Tucson, we tailor implant care to your specific needs, lifestyle, and smile goals.

Dental implants are biocompatible titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone to act as artificial tooth roots. These posts provide a strong foundation for various types of dental restorations, such as:

• Single Tooth Crowns – Ideal for replacing one missing tooth
  
  
• Dental Bridges – Restore multiple missing teeth in a row
  
  
• Full-Arch Prosthetics or All-on-Four – Support an entire arch with just four implants

Unlike traditional bridges or dentures, implants don’t rely on neighboring teeth for support. They help preserve bone density, improve facial structure, and offer unmatched stability.

At our Tucson practice, we offer a comprehensive and comfortable experience from consultation through restoration. Here’s what you can expect:

1. Consultation & 3D Imaging – We use 3D CT scanning to evaluate bone quality and plan optimal implant placement.
   
   
2. Implant Placement – Performed by trusted specialists or in coordination with our referral network, using precision techniques.
   
   
3. Healing & Integration – Over several months, the implant fuses with your jawbone through osseointegration.
   
   
4. Final Restoration – Dr. Carson restores the implant with a custom crown, bridge, or All-on-Four prosthetic.

We prioritize comfort and aesthetics, ensuring your final result feels and looks like your natural teeth.

Dental implants are considered the gold standard for tooth replacement due to their longevity and performance. Benefits include:

• Enhanced chewing function
  
  
• Natural appearance and feel
  
  
• Prevention of bone loss and facial sagging
  
  
• No shifting or adhesives like with dentures
  
  
• Long-term value (often lasting decades with proper care)

Implants also allow for better speech and confidence—making them an investment in both your oral health and quality of life.
