Dental Implants Marietta, GA

Written by Dr. Shaila Kabani, DDS

A dental implant is a long-term solution for replacing a missing tooth, offering both functional and bone-preserving benefits. Unlike dentures, which consist of artificial teeth attached to a removable plate, implants are surgically placed into the jawbone for a secure and permanent fit. Dental implants act as anchors for lifelike artificial teeth and can be used in cosmetic dentistry alongside bridges to replace multiple adjacent missing teeth. In these cases, the implant dentist places implants at either end of the gap and attaches a bridge to them, creating a stable, noninvasive way to restore missing teeth while enhancing the appearance of your smile.

Why Dental Implants Are the Gold Standard

Cosmetic Dentistry: Losing a tooth can alter your physical image in ways that compound over time. Within the first year of tooth loss, the surrounding bone begins to resorb, affecting neighboring teeth, changing bite mechanics, and altering your facial contour. Only dental implants simulate the function of a natural tooth root, stopping that cascade while restoring full chewing power. According to a 2026 NIH study of 158,000+ implants, the clinical success rate is 97.83% — evidence-backed durability that no other tooth replacement option can match.

Dr. Kabani uses 3D CBCT imaging to map your jawbone before surgery, feeding that data into a computer-guided surgical template for minimally invasive, predictable placement. Her Nobel, Zimmer, and Straumann certifications mean she selects the right implant platform for each patient’s anatomy.

Are You a Candidate? Most healthy adults qualify. Patients with bone loss from extended tooth absence may still proceed with bone grafting, which Dr. Kabani performs in-office as part of a coordinated treatment plan. During your consultation she reviews your health history and 3D imaging to give you an honest candidacy assessment.

Implant Solutions We Offer in Marietta

There are two varieties of dental implants, tailored to your bone density, anatomy, and goals. Our in-house implant menu covers single-tooth implants, All-on-4 implants, All-on-6 implants, and implant restoration for patients with existing implants.

Single-Tooth and Multi-Tooth Implants

Single-Tooth and Multi-Tooth Implants dental implants are replaced with a complete range of implant solutions at Kabani Dental in Marietta. Single-tooth implants replace one missing tooth with a titanium post and custom crown. All-on-4 implants and All-on-6 implants deliver a full arch of fixed teeth supported by just four or six implants, often in a single day. Patients with existing implants needing new crowns can explore dental implant restoration. The initial surgery places the implant, and the second surgery is to attach a post to the implant. Once the surgery is complete, a crown is placed on the implant. Whenever replacing a number of teeth, a bridge may be used between two implants.

Bone Grafting and Candidacy

Most healthy adults qualify for dental implants. Patients with bone loss from extended tooth absence may still proceed with in-office bone grafting as part of a coordinated treatment plan. Dr. Kabani reviews your full health history and takes 3D imaging during your consultation to give you an honest assessment of your candidacy and options.

Schedule Your Implant Consultation at Kabani Dental

Dental implants are and performed by a trained dentist. There are a few steps you are able to take to make sure your implants last. To start with, pay a visit to your dentist consistently. This is essential to your overall oral health, as well as preventative care. Catching a small problem before it becomes bigger is the key to maintaining the integrity of the implants. Next, be sure you are executing great oral care in your home simply by brushing and flossing each day. Avoid chewing on ice, hard candy, and other hard foods that might break your crowns. And finally, it is encouraged that you quit smoking or using tobacco products, as this damages the jaw bone.
