You may be a good candidate if you’re missing one or more teeth, have healthy gums, and have enough jawbone to support an implant. Even if you’ve been told in the past that implants weren’t an option, that may have changed. A consultation will give you the answers.
The cost of dental implants varies depending on your needs, including how many teeth you’re replacing, whether you need bone grafting, and the type of restoration used. Financing is available, and implants can often be more budget-friendly over time compared to dentures or bridges.
Some insurance plans provide coverage for implant tooth replacement. We will be happy to check with your insurance to find out.
We first determine how much bone you have remaining using special X-rays. If you have bone loss, Dr. Towe specializes in regenerative procedures that grow new gum and bone, and she can create a plan that allows you to have implants. For severe bone loss in the upper jaw, zygomatic implants anchor into the cheekbone and can help patients qualify without bone grafting.
Most patients are surprised by how comfortable the procedure is. It can be done under oral sedation or IV sedation. Afterward, some mild soreness is normal and usually manageable with over-the-counter medication. Many patients say recovery is easier than a tooth extraction.
Your consultation is a full assessment of your oral and overall health. We’ll check your gum health and whether your jaw has enough bone to support an implant, use advanced 3D imaging to map your mouth in detail, and review your medical history. Then we’ll walk you through the treatment options that may be right for you.

Dr. Towe was recommended by my general dentist, who advised that I needed extensive gum grafting. Dr Towe performed the surgery over a period of 1.5 hours; I found her to be very informative, but especially very kind and gentle. The surgery was highly successful; I healed much faster than I ever could have imagined! I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Dr. Towe and her entire staff, and highly recommend her practice for periodontal and implant work.

When you find out that you need unexpected periodontal surgery at 26 weeks pregnant during a pandemic, you tend to panic. Dr. Shoff and the staff at Advanced Implants treated me like family from the moment that I walked in the door. They patiently explained all aspects of my procedure and care in detail, answered all questions that I had, and were extremely considerate of how I was feeling and my needs. Their office was clean, bright, and welcoming. They were flexible in scheduling me early in the morning or late in the afternoon. The entire process, from start to finish, was pain free. I would highly recommend this staff and practice!

A surgical procedure was proposed by another physician and I approached Dr. Towe to see if the surgery was necessary. (second opinion). She concluded that other treatments might be considered prior to the proposed surgery. After a comprehensive evaluation, Dr. Towe implemented less invasive treatments which were sufficient to avoid the proposed treatment. She communicated effectively with my primary dental group so that the needed information was there when I visited them. I recommend this group highly.

The office staff is welcoming and friendly. They always keep me apprised of appointments and other announcements. The dental hygienist is a sweetheart, very informed and concerned for my oral health. So comforting discussing things with her! Dr. Towe is very professional and I am quite pleased with the surgical intervention she did on me. This is a welcoming dental center and the whole operation is well run and not off putting. Highly recommend.

I've had anxiety about having dental work due to previous bad experiences and was very nervous about having this procedure done. However, Dr. Towe and her staff were AMAZING! They explained everything in great detail and made sure that I was comfortable every step of the way! They made this the least painful dental experience I've ever had! If you're in need of periodontal work, I highly recommend Advanced Implants and Periodontics! :)
