How much do dental implants from a periodontist typically cost?

A single implant, including the post, abutment, and crown, usually runs somewhere between $3,000 and $5,000 depending on the case. If you need bone grafting or a sinus lift first, add another $500 to $3,000. Full-arch implant-supported dentures cost significantly more, often $20,000 to $50,000 per arch. Insurance sometimes covers part of the surgical portion but rarely the crown.

How long does an implant last before it needs attention again?

The implant post itself, once properly integrated with bone, can last decades or a lifetime with good care. The crown on top typically needs replacement or adjustment after 10 to 15 years due to normal wear. Gum health around the implant matters a lot: poor hygiene or untreated gum disease can lead to peri-implantitis, which is why periodontal follow-up visits matter even after the initial procedure heals.

What should I expect during the implant process?

Most cases start with a consultation and a 3D scan to check bone volume and plan placement. If you need grafting, that happens first and requires several months of healing before the implant post goes in. After placement, it typically takes 3 to 6 months for the bone to fuse to the implant before the final crown is attached. Total timeline for a straightforward single implant is often 4 to 8 months from start to finish.

How can I judge whether a periodontal implant specialist does quality work?

Check that they're a board-certified periodontist rather than a general dentist offering implants as a side service, ask how many implants they place annually, and see if they use cone-beam CT imaging for planning rather than 2D x-rays alone. A good specialist will also walk you through failure rates, what happens if a graft doesn't take, and how they manage cases that need coordination with your regular dentist.

Periodontal Implant Specialists in Greer

A guide to choosing a periodontal implant specialist in Greer: what the treatment involves, how to vet a provider, and how our rankings work.

Periodontists who place implants handle cases that sit at the intersection of gum health and tooth replacement. That includes single or multiple implant placement, bone grafting to rebuild a jaw that's lost density, sinus lifts for upper molars, treatment of peri-implantitis (infection around an existing implant), and full-arch work like implant-supported bridges or dentures. Because these specialists train specifically in the gum and bone tissue that has to support an implant long-term, they're often the right call for patients with a history of gum disease, thin bone, or a previous implant that failed. Greer has 21 practices offering this kind of care, ranging from solo periodontal offices to larger multi-specialty dental groups.

When comparing providers, look past the marketing photos and check a few concrete things: whether the specialist is board-certified in periodontics, what imaging technology they use for planning (3D cone-beam CT scans are now standard for accurate placement), how they handle bone or gum grafting if you need it, and whether they coordinate directly with your restorative dentist for the crown or bridge that goes on top. Ask how they handle complications and what their follow-up schedule looks like in the first year.
