Replace Missing Teeth With a Smile That Looks, Feels, and Functions Naturally
Missing teeth can make everyday activities like eating, speaking, and smiling more difficult than they should be. At NeoMar Dentistry, we provide advanced dental implant solutions that restore your smile, improve your oral health, and give you the confidence to enjoy life without worrying about missing teeth or uncomfortable dentures.
Whether you’re replacing a single missing tooth, several teeth, or an entire smile, our team will create a personalized treatment plan designed around your goals, lifestyle, and long-term oral health.
What Is a Dental Implant?
A dental implant is a small titanium post that replaces the root of a missing tooth, giving you a stable foundation for a new crown. At Neomar Family Dentistry in Fort Myers, Dr. Garcia offers dental implants as a long-term way to restore missing teeth and support overall oral health. Because implants are placed directly in the jawbone, they look, feel, and function much like your natural teeth.
Benefits of Dental Implants
- Replace missing teeth with a natural appearance
- Restore your ability to chew comfortably
- Help preserve healthy jawbone
- Prevent neighboring teeth from shifting
- Improve speech and confidence
- Provide a long-term tooth replacement solution
- Eliminate the slipping associated with traditional dentures
Types of Implants We Offer at Neomar Family Dentistry
We offer a full range of implant restorations to match your specific needs, from single tooth implants that replace one missing tooth to full mouth implants that rebuild an entire arch. For patients who want a fixed, permanent solution, all on 4 implants use four strategically placed posts to support a complete set of replacement teeth in a single arch. We also offer snap on options for patients who prefer a removable, implant-supported appliance, so you can choose the approach that fits your comfort and lifestyle.
Single Tooth Dental Implants
If you’re missing one tooth, a single dental implant can replace it without affecting the healthy teeth around it.
A dental implant is placed into the jawbone and topped with a custom-made dental crown that blends naturally with your smile. The result is a replacement tooth that looks, feels, and functions much like your natural tooth.
Single implants are an excellent solution for patients who want the most conservative and durable option for replacing a missing tooth.
Multiple Dental Implants
Missing several teeth doesn’t necessarily mean you need a denture.
Depending on your needs, multiple dental implants can support individual crowns or implant-supported bridges, allowing you to replace several missing teeth while preserving healthy bone and restoring full function.
Our team will determine the most effective approach based on the number of teeth being replaced and your overall oral health.
Full Arch Dental Implants (All-on-4® & All-on-X)
For patients missing most or all of their upper or lower teeth, full arch dental implants provide a secure, life-changing alternative to removable dentures.
Using strategically placed dental implants, a full arch of custom replacement teeth is permanently attached to the implants, creating a stable, natural-looking smile.
Benefits of full arch implants include:
- Fixed, non-removable teeth
- Improved chewing ability
- Greater confidence when speaking and smiling
- No denture adhesives
- Improved comfort and stability
- Long-term preservation of jawbone
Many patients are candidates for All-on-4® or All-on-X treatment, which uses four or more strategically placed implants to support an entire arch of replacement teeth. The exact number of implants depends on your bone structure, oral health, and treatment goals.
Full Mouth Dental Implants
Patients who have lost all or nearly all of their teeth may benefit from full mouth implant reconstruction.
This comprehensive treatment replaces both the upper and lower arches with implant-supported restorations, restoring function, appearance, and quality of life.
Many patients who have struggled with loose dentures are amazed at the difference fixed implant-supported teeth can make in their daily lives.
Our team will carefully evaluate your smile and discuss the best options for rebuilding your complete smile.
Implants vs Dentures: Why Patients Choose Implants
Traditional dentures rest on the gums and can shift or slip over time, while dental implants are anchored in the jawbone for a stable, secure fit. Implants also help preserve the jawbone itself, since chewing pressure is transferred through the post much like it would be with a natural tooth root. Many patients find that implant restorations allow them to eat, speak, and smile with more confidence than removable dentures alone.

Evaluation for Dental Implants
If, like many others, you feel implant dentistry is the choice for you, we ask that you undergo a dental/radiographic examination and health history. During these consultation visits, your specific needs and considerations will be addressed by either Dr. Garcia or by an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon referred by our practice. Your questions and concerns are important to us and our team will work with you very closely to help make your procedure a success.
Surgical Advances in Dental Implants
Using the most recent advances in dental implant technology, Dr. Garcia is able to place single stage implants. These implants do not require a second procedure to uncover them, but do require a minimum of six weeks of healing time before artificial teeth are placed. There are even situations where the implant can be placed at the same time as the tooth extraction – further minimizing your number of surgical procedures.
Dental implant placement is a team effort between a periodontist and a restorative dentist. Dr. Garcia performs the actual implant surgery, initial tooth extractions, and bone grafting if necessary. The restorative dentist (your dentist) fits and makes the permanent prosthesis. Your dentist will also make any temporary prosthesis needed during the implant process.
Dental Implant Procedure
Dental implants are metal anchors, which act as tooth root substitutes. They are surgically placed into the jaw bone. Small posts are then attached to the implant, which protrude through the gums. These posts provide stable anchors for artificial replacement teeth.
For most patients, the placement of dental implants involves two surgical procedures. First, dental implants are placed within your jaw bone. For the first three to six months following surgery, the implants are beneath the surface of the gums, gradually bonding with the jaw bone. You should be able to wear temporary dentures and eat a soft diet during this time. At the same time, your restorative dentist designs the final bridgework or denture, which will ultimately improve both function and aesthetics.
After the dental implant has bonded to the jaw bone, the second phase begins. The surgeon will uncover the implants and attach a small healing collar. Dr. Garcia can then start making your new teeth. An impression must be taken. Then posts or attachments can be connected to the implants. The replacement teeth are then made over the posts or attachments. The entire procedure usually takes six to eight months. Most patients do not experience any disruption in their daily life.
