Dental Implants in Broken Arrow

Dental implants are one of the most successful and durable options for anyone who needs to replace missing teeth. Available with our Broken Arrow dentist, implant treatments are versatile and tailored to the unique needs of each patient. Whether you’re replacing one tooth or all of them, Beam Dental can help you regain your oral health, diet, and self-confidence!

What are Dental Implants?

Unlike most tooth replacements that rest on your gums or are supported by other teeth, dental implants are stand-alone tooth replacements. Each one is crafted from hypoallergenic materials and shaped to resemble a tooth root. Once placed into the bone where your tooth is missing, your jaw forms new bone cells that fuse to the implant, anchoring it into place. When your implant is fully integrated, it’s capable of supporting even more biting and chewing force than a healthy, natural tooth. We then use your implant to anchor a crown, bridge, or hybrid appliance, depending on how many teeth are missing.


Because of their streamlined design, we can use implants to replace single, multiple, or all of your teeth at once. In some cases, as few as four implants can be used to support an entire row of teeth.

When to Consider Dental Implants

We recommend dental implants for our patients who have healthy gum tissues and adequate bone support. Investing in dental implants provides many benefits, including:

  • Being non-invasive to your adjacent teeth
  • Preventing bone loss and premature aging, which frequently accompanies tooth loss
  • Extremely long lifespan (can last a lifetime when maintained properly)
  • Permanently fixed tooth replacement
  • Easy to care for
  • Safe and minimally invasive placement process
  • The look and feel of real teeth
  • Predictable for a wide range of tooth replacement needs
  • Best return on investment

Our Dental Implant Process in Broken Arrow

At Beam Dental, we begin every dental implant process with a thorough evaluation of your oral health and anatomical structures. We’ll review each treatment option with you so that you understand the pros and cons of each and can make an informed decision about your health. If you qualify for dental implants, we’ll create a care plan that explains the number of implants needed, the type of restoration recommended, and fee-related details.


Dental implants aren’t something you should ever rush, as they require skilled planning, placement, and integration time to be successful. When you choose Beam Dental as your implant provider, you know that we will treat your smile the same way we would our own, providing you with exceptional care, quality, and amazing results. 

How to Care for Your Implants

To ensure your implants last as long as possible (ideally a lifetime,) it’s important to care for them the right way. We recommend visiting our dentist in Broken Arrow every six months for an exam and cleaning to have your implants and other teeth evaluated. You’ll also want to brush and floss around each implant every day.


Although implants don’t get cavities the way natural teeth do, the gum and bone tissue around them are still susceptible to bacteria. As such, you’ll need to address any symptoms of gingivitis or bleeding as early as possible.
