Dental Implants in Houston

Rebuild Comfort, Function,
& Confidence with Dental Implants

Missing teeth can affect more than your smile. They can make eating difficult, impact speech, and lead to long-term bone loss if left untreated. Every patient’s smile, health needs, and goals are different. That is why Evolution at Tanglewood Dental provides comprehensive implant care designed to address a wide range of tooth replacement needs.

Types of Dental Implants

Single Tooth Implants

Warning Signs You May Need a Tooth Extraction Due to Infection

Replaces one missing tooth by placing a titanium post in the jawbone that supports a custom crown.

Dental Bridge

Warning Signs You May Need a Tooth Extraction Due to Infection

Replaces several missing teeth in a row by anchoring a fixed bridge to dental implants instead of neighboring teeth.

Full Arch Restoration (All-on-4®/All-on-6)

Facial Swelling and Gum Inflammation Indicating Need for Tooth Removal

Replaces an entire row of teeth using a fixed prosthetic supported by several strategically placed implants.

Snap-In Dentures

Warning Signs You May Need a Tooth Extraction Due to Infection

A dental implant with an overdenture attachment that uses secure connectors to hold the dentures firmly in place.

How much does a dental implant cost?

Dental implant Cost With and Without Insurance

Impant costs vary depending on:

How many teeth need to be replaced through single-tooth implant
Implant-supported bridges vs. All-on-4 full arch restorations
Use of zirconia vs. acrylic prosthetics
Additional procedures that may be necessary such as tooth extractions, bone grafting, or sinus lifts
Sedation options including IV sedation or local anesthesia
Insurance coverage (many plans cover the crown but not the implant post; medical insurance may contribute if tooth loss is due to trauma or disease)

Evolution at Tanglewood is an out-of-network clinic. This means we set our own fees based on the quality of care we provide, not on contracted insurance rates. This allows us to offer longer appointments, personalized treatment plans, and a focus on your comfort rather than meeting insurance driven quotas. While many dental offices operate differently, but we believe this approach better serves our patients.

Honest Pricing. Gentle Care.
No Pressure.

Everything You Need to Know About Dental Implants

Dental implants are one of the most reliable and natural-looking ways to restore missing teeth, offering a long-term solution for adults at every stage of life. Still, understanding your options can feel overwhelming. Whether you’re just beginning your research or exploring alternatives to dentures, our team at Evolution at Tanglewood is here to guide you with clarity and care. Conveniently located in the Tanglewood and Galleria area, we serve patients across Houston—and many who travel from Galveston, Conroe, and beyond for Dr. El-Kheir’s precision and experience.

Phase 1: Consultation

Your dentist evaluates your oral health, takes imaging, and designs a personalized implant treatment plan.

Phase 2: Tooth Extraction (If Needed)

If a damaged tooth is present, it is removed to prepare the site for implant placement.

Phase 3: Implant Placement

A small titanium implant post is surgically placed into the jawbone to act as an artificial tooth root.

Phase 4: Healing & Bone Integration

Over the next few months, the implant fuses with the jawbone to create a strong, stable foundation.

Phase 5: Abutment Placement

A small connector piece called an abutment is attached to the implant to support the final restoration.

Phase 6: Final Restoration

A custom crown, bridge, or denture is placed on the implant to restore normal function and appearance.

When you’re looking to replace a missing tooth, options like implants, bridges, and dentures each offer different benefits. The right choice depends on factors like cost, preference, and oral health. Our team can help you find the best fit for your needs.

Most healthy adults with one or more missing teeth can be good candidates for dental implants. Ideal candidates have sufficient jawbone to support the implant and healthy gums, but even if you’ve been told otherwise in the past, options like bone grafting or alternative techniques may still make treatment possible. The best way to know for sure is to visit Dr. Kheir for a personalized evaluation.
