Dental Implants

Tooth loss can impact more than just your appearance—it can change how you chew, speak, and feel. That’s why Dr. Steven Wan and our team at Olympia Dental Center offer custom dental implants in Tumwater that look natural, feel secure, and function like real teeth. We combine clinical expertise with advanced technology to deliver results that support your smile for the long haul. After all, Your Smile is Our Priority.

We use tools like our CBCT scanner to guide precise implant placement and digital impressions for a comfortable, mess-free experience. You can relax with amenities like headphones, music, blankets, and pillows while we rebuild your bite. At every step, we keep you informed and comfortable.

Missing Teeth? Let’s Fix That for Good

Unlike dentures or bridges, dental implants don’t just sit on the gums or rely on neighboring teeth for support. Our dentist places implants directly into the jawbone, creating a stable foundation that helps preserve bone health and facial structure. You get a long-lasting, natural-looking solution that feels like your own tooth. Whether missing one tooth or several, we can tailor your treatment plan to fit your needs.

Here’s why patients choose implants:

  • Permanent tooth replacement with proper care
  • No slipping or clicking like traditional dentures
  • Protects the jawbone from bone loss
  • Doesn’t damage or rely on surrounding teeth
  • Allows you to chew, smile, and speak with confidence

Dental Implants in Tumwater: All the Details

We guide you through every stage of your implant journey, from evaluation to final restoration. Our process ensures comfort, safety, and long-term success.

Step 1: Consultation and Planning

We begin with a comprehensive exam using our CBCT scanner and digital X-rays. These tools give us a detailed 3D view of your bone and tissues, helping the dentist plan exact implant placement. We also review your health history and discuss your goals.

Step 2: Implant Placement

The doctor places the titanium implant into your jawbone using precise surgical guides. We often use same-day appointments to streamline care. With nitrous oxide and cozy amenities like blankets and pillows, your comfort remains a top priority.

Step 3: Healing and Osseointegration

Over the next few months, the implant fuses naturally with the bone, creating a secure base for your final crown or denture. We monitor healing closely to ensure smooth progress.

Step 4: Final Restoration

Once healing finishes, we attach a custom crown or prosthetic. Using digital impressions and CAD/CAM technology, we craft a natural-looking result that matches your bite and smile. Our in-house 3D printer allows us to create precise parts quickly and efficiently.

Implants That Fit You, Not the Other Way Around

Each restoration option restores function and confidence while preserving your oral health. We help you understand your choices and select the one that fits your goals. We offer a range of implant solutions to match different needs and lifestyles:

  • Single-Tooth Implants
    We replace one missing tooth with a durable implant and custom crown. The restoration blends naturally with your surrounding teeth.
  • Implant-Supported Bridges
    We use an implant-supported bridge to fill the space left by multiple missing teeth. This solution restores function without affecting nearby healthy teeth.
  • Implant Dentures
    We secure full or partial dentures to dental implants for a stronger, more comfortable fit. This approach reduces movement and improves stability while eating and speaking.
  • Full-Arch Restoration
    We restore an entire arch of teeth using a few strategically placed implants. This method offers a full, functional smile with fewer implants and faster results.
