A different kind of implant practice
Personal care stays personal here.
Dr. Yang is at your consultation
You meet Dr. Yang personally to review whether a single implant fits your site. Questions are answered by the surgeon who would plan and place the implant—not a separate sales team.
Right treatment for the right tooth
We recommend a single implant only after careful evaluation. Treatment is planned for the missing or failing tooth—not as a pathway into full-arch replacement.
Who it may help
Candidates for a single dental implant.
This page is for replacing one tooth—not an entire arch.
- 01
One missing tooth
A gap from extraction, trauma, or congenital absence that you want restored permanently.
- 02
Failing crown or root canal
A tooth that cannot be predictably saved, where an implant may be a stronger long-term option after removal.
- 03
Bridge or partial alternative
Prefer not to reshape healthy neighboring teeth for a bridge, or want a fixed option instead of a removable partial for a single site.
What to expect
From consult to crown in clear steps.
No pressure—just a careful plan for one implant and its restoration.
- 01
Consult & 3D imaging
Meet Dr. Yang, review your goals, and evaluate the site with complimentary 3D imaging.
- 02
Personalized plan
Discuss implant timing, grafting if needed, sedation, cost, and coordination with your dentist for the crown.
- 03
Place the implant
The implant is positioned in the jaw—often with robotic assistance and IV sedation.

Heal, then crown
After integration, an abutment and custom crown complete the single-tooth restoration.
Comfort & precision
IV sedation in-office. Technology that supports a single-site plan.
IV sedation & robotic guidance
Most implant surgeries here are completed under IV sedation when appropriate. The FDA-cleared Yomi system can assist Dr. Yang with real-time guidance while he remains in control—helpful precision for a single implant site.
Coordinated restorative pathway
We work with your restorative dentist on the abutment and crown, and our practice-owned lab can support design and manufacturing when that coordination benefits your case.
Cost & financing
Understand the investment for one implant before you decide.
Single-implant treatment is personalized. Your coordinator explains the plan, associated costs, and available third-party financing for qualified applicants—without turning the consultation into a sales pitch.

Reviewed by Daniel Yang, DDS, MD.
What is a single dental implant?
A single dental implant replaces one missing tooth. A titanium implant is placed in the jaw to act like a root, then an abutment and custom crown restore the visible tooth—without relying on neighboring teeth the way a traditional bridge does.
Who may be a candidate for a single implant?
People missing one tooth, or with a tooth that cannot be saved after fracture, infection, or a failing root canal or crown, may be candidates. Bone volume, gum health, bite, and overall health matter. A clinical exam and 3D imaging determine what is appropriate for your site.
How is a single implant different from a bridge or partial denture?
A bridge typically reshapes healthy neighboring teeth for support. A removable partial can move or feel less stable. A single implant stands on its own in the jaw and is designed to look and function like a natural tooth. Your surgeon will explain which options fit your anatomy and goals.
Will I need a bone graft?
Sometimes. If the tooth was lost recently or bone has thinned, site preservation or grafting may help create a stable foundation before or at implant placement. That decision is made after your 3D evaluation—not from a one-size-fits-all plan.
How long does the process take?
Timing varies. Many patients move from consult and planning to implant placement, a healing period for the implant to integrate, then the abutment and final crown. Some steps can be coordinated with your restorative dentist. Your personalized plan will outline expected timing.
How much does a single dental implant cost?
Cost depends on your individual treatment plan, including whether grafting or related procedures are needed. During your complimentary consultation, our team reviews personalized costs and available third-party financing for qualified applicants. The consultation and 3D X-ray are free, with no obligation.
Is sedation available for a single implant?
Yes. Dr. Yang is licensed to perform IV general anesthesia in California, and implant surgery in our office is commonly completed under IV sedation when clinically appropriate. Your comfort and safety plan is personalized to your health, procedure, and preferences.
