Single Tooth Implants in Jacksonville, FL
Even a single missing tooth can impact your smile, bite, and long-term oral health. At EverySmile Dental Riverside, we offer modern single tooth dental implants that restore what’s missing — without affecting your neighboring teeth.
If you're looking for a trusted dentist in Jacksonville FL who can replace your missing tooth with lasting results, our team is here to help with compassionate, high-quality care in a calm, non-corporate setting.
What Is a Single Tooth Implant?
A single tooth implant is a titanium post placed into the jawbone where the tooth is missing. It functions as a replacement root and is topped with a custom-crafted crown. Together, they form a secure, fully functional tooth that looks and feels natural.
Unlike a dental bridge, a single tooth implant doesn’t require grinding down or crowning the teeth next to it — making it a more conservative and long-lasting option.
Ideal Candidates for a Single Tooth Implant
You may be a good candidate if:
- You’re missing one tooth (front or back)
- You want a fixed solution, not a removable one
- You have healthy gums and adequate jawbone
- You’re committed to good oral hygiene
- You want to prevent bone loss or shifting teeth
If bone loss is a concern, we may recommend bone grafting before implant placement to ensure long-term stability.
How the Process Works
Step 1: Consultation & Digital Imaging
We use CBCT 3D scans and digital impressions to evaluate your jaw and precisely plan the implant’s position.
Step 2: Implant Placement
The implant is placed in a short, in-office procedure using local anesthesia. Healing time typically ranges from 3 to 6 months as the implant integrates with the bone.
Step 3: Crown Placement
Once the implant is stable, we place a custom dental crown designed to match your surrounding teeth in shape, color, and function.
The result is seamless — your new tooth blends in so naturally that most people won’t know it’s an implant.
Benefits of a Single Tooth Implant
- No damage to surrounding teeth
- Stimulates bone and prevents shrinkage
- Restores full chewing ability
- Custom crown matches surrounding teeth
- Built to last decades with proper care
- Feels like your natural tooth — because it acts like one
Compared to bridges or partials, implants are often the most durable and cost-effective solution over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a single tooth implant last?
With good hygiene, implants can last 20 years or more. The crown may need to be replaced over time, but the implant post is designed for longevity.
Is it better than a dental bridge?
Yes, in most cases. Unlike a bridge, an implant doesn’t require modifying adjacent teeth and helps prevent jawbone loss.
Is the procedure painful?
No. It’s performed under local anesthesia, and most patients report only minor soreness afterward. We offer oral sedation if needed.
Can I get an implant the same day as a tooth extraction?
Sometimes. This depends on the condition of your jawbone and surrounding tissue. We’ll let you know if immediate implant placement is an option.
What if I wait too long after losing a tooth?
Delaying implant placement may lead to bone loss. If this happens, bone grafting may be needed before the implant can be placed.
