Implants

Implants in Jacksonville, FL
A dental implant is a replacement for a missing tooth root. A crown is attached to the implant to complete the restoration. A single implant can be used to replace a single missing tooth or multiple implants can be used to support several teeth or a full arch replacement.
Replacing missing teeth with implants can help restore your ability to smile and eat with confidence. Implants are also the only tooth-replacement option that will help maintain your jaw bone. Without a dental implant, once you lose a tooth, bone loss will continue for life. Implants are also the most conservative and most durable option to replace a missing tooth, rendering it the most cost effective since they rarely need to be replaced.

Dental Implants at Baymeadows Park Dental
At Baymeadows Park Dental, we take every measure to make your dental implant experience comfortable. We will talk you through each step, or if you prefer, you can sit back, relax with a set of headphones, and watch the TV mounted in the ceiling above. Whatever your preference, you can rest assured that your implant procedure will be done with the highest level of care.
The most important part of implant dentistry is proper planning to ensure the right implant is selected for the available bone. Dr. Rios can place most implants right here in the convenience of our Jacksonville dental office under local anesthesia. Some cases requiring extra procedures, such as a sinus lift, ridge augmentation, or IV sedation will be referred to one of our preferred specialists, with the restoration being completed at our office.
You will be given a pre-treatment antibiotic and an anti-inflammatory drug one hour prior to the procedure. The treatment is done under local anesthesia and only takes a few minutes. In some cases, the implant can be restored with a crown immediately; however, we typically wait three months before placing a restoration to be sure that the bone has adequately healed around the new implant.
Dental Check-Up & Exams
We look forward to helping you improve the appearance of your smile and oral health at its optimal levels.
Implant Care
While a dental implant will not decay, it should be cared for just like a normal tooth with proper brushing and flossing to keep it clean and free of debris. This will help keep all the supporting and surrounding structures strong and healthy. You will also need to visit our Jacksonville office for twice-yearly exams and cleanings to ensure the health of the rest of your teeth.

I had my first new patient appointment today and I have to say this is such a pleasant office. The staff are so welcoming and professional I felt at home here. The dentist is very knowledgeable and didn’t push anything towards me that I didn’t need which is a huge plus considering there’s some out there that want to push towards unnecessary procedures. I never write reviews but I know there’s people out there like me that want a good dentist and with our current plan in place I have to say that I will bring my family here! He really does have an amazing staff and I want the best for myself and my family and this dentist office is the best. I’m looking forward to my appointments. oh don’t forget the do sell professional teeth bleach syringes for $10 each. It’s 🤩 amazing

Absolutely incredible!! Dr Rios and his assistants are truly wonderful people and are there for your benefit. My dental assistant was super light handed and was very reassuring. As someone who is normally scared of doctors offices, the team here created a warm and welcoming environment. Could not recommend them more!

Ciearra Harris
Dr.Rios is the only dentist that I feel totally comfortable going to. The staff are incredibly friendly and are always happy to see you! I struggle a great deal with anxiety going to the dentist and Dr.Rios and his staff has made me feel comfortable and relaxed enough to get caught up on YEARS worth of dental work. If I could rate out of 100 stars, they'd get a 1000/100.
