A natural look
An implant and crown blend in with the teeth around them.
Your implant care, start to finish, under one roof.
From your first consult to your final crown, your whole implant journey stays with one team who already knows your history.
The difference
One office, not three.
Many practices send implant patients from office to office: one place pulls the tooth, another places the implant, a third makes the crown. We do the whole thing here, from extraction to your complete restoration.
That means one team that knows your history, fewer handoffs, and a plan that stays consistent from start to finish. Your care runs from your first consult all the way to your final smile, with any of our doctors.
Our doctors are trained internationally in advanced implant techniques, so even complex cases can stay in-house instead of being referred out. If a case ever calls for a specialist's hands, we will tell you plainly and help coordinate that referral, because your outcome matters more than keeping the work here.
The process
How a dental implant works.
-
1
A tailored treatment plan
We map out your case using 3D imaging, then plan placement around your bone, your bite, and your goals.
-
2
The titanium post is placed
A small titanium post is set into the jaw to act as the new root. If you have been evaluated and qualify for sedation with Dr. Lemmon ahead of time, it can be part of this step.
-
3
Your mouth heals
Over about six to twelve weeks, the post fuses with the bone to form a stable foundation.
-
4
The crown goes on
A custom crown is attached to the post with an abutment, matched to your natural teeth.
Why implants
What a good implant gives back.
Built to last
A permanent solution designed to hold up for the long run.
Speech and comfort
Improved speech and comfort compared with gaps or loose dentures.
Eat what you like
Fewer restrictions on what you can comfortably chew.
Long-term oral health
Helps protect the bone and the teeth next to the gap.
Your confidence back
A restored smile you do not have to think about.
Same-day extractions and placement
Pull it, place it. Sedation comes after a careful evaluation.
For the right cases, we can perform a same-day extraction with immediate implant placement, so you leave with the groundwork already done. Sedation works on its own timeline: Dr. Lemmon evaluates every patient in advance, and nitrous, oral, or IV conscious sedation is only ever added once that evaluation says you qualify. It is not something we add on the day of your procedure. Because some health conditions can make sedation unsafe, we take that extra step first, so anxious patients can rest easy knowing it was done carefully.
If a broken tooth or a failed crown has turned into an emergency, same-day and next-day appointments are open at both our Foothills and Yuma offices, and you can request one online any time, even after hours.
Start with a consultation.
We will look at your case honestly and walk you through your real options, no pressure.
