Why implantsA dental implant is a small titanium root placed in the jaw, which fuses with the bone over a few months and then carries a crown built to match your teeth. It is the only tooth replacement that stands independently: no reshaping of the neighboring teeth the way a bridge requires, no adhesives or nightly removal the way dentures involve, and, uniquely, it preserves the bone at the gap, which otherwise slowly recedes once a tooth is gone. You brush it and floss it like the tooth it replaced. The implant vs bridge guide and dentures vs implants guide lay the alternatives flat if you are weighing options.
| Stage | Where | What happens |
|---|---|---|
| Consultation & planning | Downtown Kansas City | Exam, X-rays, candidacy, and your all-in written estimate |
| Placement | Our Olathe office | Our oral surgeon places the implant in the larger surgical setup |
| Integration | Home | A few months while the implant fuses with the bone; a temporary covers appearance where needed |
| The crown | Coordinated by our downtown office | The final tooth, shade-matched and bite-checked |
| The years after | Downtown Kansas City | Ordinary brushing, flossing and six-month checkups |
Implant treatment here runs through one team across two offices. Your case begins and is managed at Walnut Street: the consultation, the imaging, the candidacy conversation, and the estimate that puts every stage and every dollar in writing before anything is scheduled. Placement day happens at our Olathe office, the larger of the two and set up for implant surgery, where our oral surgeon performs the placement. Then coordination returns downtown for the integration checks and the crown that finishes the tooth. One plan, one written number, one team accountable for the outcome, which is precisely what to insist on from anyone offering implants. The implant cost guide explains what belongs in any quote you compare, and financing covers CareCredit and Cherry.
Four stages. First, a consultation and 3D-informed planning at our downtown office, ending in a written, itemized, all-in estimate. Second, placement: the implant, a small titanium root, is placed at our Olathe office, where our oral surgeon performs implant surgery in a larger surgical setup. Third, a healing period of a few months while the implant fuses with the bone. Fourth, the final crown, matched to your teeth. Call (816) 439-7715.
Because that is where our surgical capacity lives: the Olathe office is the larger of the two, purpose-set-up for implant surgery, and our oral surgeon performs placements there. Your case stays inside one practice family the whole way: the planning, the written estimate, the coordination between visits and your ongoing dental care all run through our downtown Kansas City office, so nothing about your treatment is handed off to strangers. Call (816) 439-7715.
Most healthy adults with a missing tooth are, and the honest gatekeepers are bone and gum health: an implant needs adequate bone to anchor in, and stable gums to live in. The consultation and X-rays establish both. Smoking, uncontrolled diabetes and certain medications change the risk picture and are discussed plainly, not treated as disqualifiers by default. Where bone has thinned, grafting options exist and are priced in the same written estimate. Call (816) 439-7715.
Commonly three to six months from placement to final crown, and the calendar is mostly biology: the implant needs a few months to fuse solidly with the bone before it can carry chewing force, and rushing that stage is how implants fail. A temporary solution covers appearance in the meantime where the gap shows. You get the realistic timeline for your case in writing at the consultation, alongside the cost. Call (816) 439-7715.
The only honest answer is an all-in, itemized, written figure for your actual mouth, which is what the consultation produces; national ranges and what drives them are laid out in our implant cost guide. Insurance contribution varies widely by plan, and the front desk checks your actual benefits first, so the estimate reflects what you would really pay. CareCredit and Cherry financing can spread the cost, and staging across plan years sometimes helps. Call (816) 439-7715.
