Missing Teeth Shouldn't Decide How You Live in James Island

Missing a tooth can affect much more than your smile.

Maybe you’re avoiding certain foods because chewing has become difficult. Maybe you feel uncomfortable smiling in photos around Folly Road or spending time with family and friends. Or perhaps you’re tired of worrying about a denture shifting while you’re eating or speaking.

If any of that sounds familiar, you’re not alone.

Dental implants provide a stable foundation for replacing missing teeth. A titanium post is placed into the jawbone and can support a crown, bridge, or denture designed to restore both function and appearance.

Because the implant integrates with the jawbone, it can provide a secure foundation for your replacement tooth and help you get back to eating, speaking, and smiling with greater confidence.

James Island Implant Patient Reviews

Mark Bell

My pain tolerance for dental work is very low and I am somewhat embarrassed by it. Dr. Ammons and Dr. Hamilton have performed implants to fillings. They get it and have made going to dentist a pleasure and fun.

Paula Schmidt

This place is amazing and the hygienist Catherine Palyok is a treasure!! She’s passionate about preventing and reversing damage wherever possible, and not only thoroughly cleaned our teeth, she also explained how we can improve our routines going forwards to remineralize and hopefully reverse a few issues, even typing up after-care AM & PM plans. Her delight in the process is a joy – so much that you can’t help but feel revitalized about taking better care of yourself, too 🙂

Seth Abramson

This place is awesome, and Catherine Palyok is an absolute gem. She didn’t just give us a great cleaning, she took the time to explain what was going on with our teeth and what we can do to prevent and even reverse some issues moving forward. She put together detailed morning and evening care plans for us and made everything easy to understand. You can tell she’s genuinely passionate about what she does, and that enthusiasm is contagious.

What Are Dental Implants?

Are You a Candidate?

Many adults with a missing or failing tooth may be candidates for dental implants.

However, every patient is different. Your gum health, jawbone condition, existing teeth, and overall oral health all need to be evaluated before treatment.

A 3D CT scan can provide a detailed view of your jaw and help determine whether dental implants are appropriate for you. The scan is included as part of Ammons Dental by Design’s advertised free implant consultation.
