When you lose a tooth, whether from decay, injury, or gum disease, the impact goes beyond your smile. It affects the way you eat, speak, and feel about yourself. And while there are several tooth replacement options out there, nothing comes close to matching the function, feel, and longevity of a dental implant.
At 360 Dental Lounge in Mansfield, TX, dental implants are one of our most-requested services, and for good reason. Our implant specialist, Dr. Rushabh Doshi, has placed more than 3,000 dental implants over the course of his career. That’s a level of experience that makes a measurable difference in outcomes.
Here’s everything you need to know about dental implants in Mansfield, TX.
What Is a Dental Implant, Exactly?
A dental implant is a small titanium post that is placed directly into your jawbone to serve as an artificial tooth root. Once it integrates with the bone (a process called osseointegration), a custom-made crown is attached on top, creating a tooth that looks, feels, and functions just like a natural one.
Unlike dentures, implants don’t slip or require adhesive. Unlike dental bridges, they don’t require grinding down healthy adjacent teeth. Implants are the closest thing modern dentistry has to regrowing a tooth.
Why Dr. Doshi’s Experience Matters
Not all dentists place implants. And among those who do, there’s an enormous range of experience. A dentist who has placed 50 implants approaches a case very differently from one who has placed 3,000.
Dr. Rushabh Doshi trained at Boston University and is a Master of the International Congress of Oral Implantologists (ICOI), one of the highest credentials in the implant world. Over his career, he has successfully placed thousands of implants across a wide range of cases, from straightforward single-tooth replacements to complex full-arch restorations for patients who had no remaining teeth.
What does that experience translate to for you?
- Better pre-surgical planning using our 3D cone beam scanner for precise implant placement
- Lower risk of complications thanks to a refined technique developed across hundreds of varied cases
- More predictable, natural-looking results anchored in deep anatomical knowledge
- In-house management of your full implant journey from extraction and bone grafting, if needed, through final crown placement
Types of Dental Implants We Offer in Mansfield
Single Tooth Implants
If you’re missing one tooth, a single implant topped with a custom crown is typically the gold standard. The result is virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth.
Implant-Supported Bridges
For patients missing multiple adjacent teeth, an implant-supported bridge uses two implants to support a bridge spanning the gap, so no healthy teeth need to be altered.
All-on-4 Dental Implants
For patients who have lost most or all of their teeth, the All-on-4 technique uses just four strategically placed implants to support a full arch of teeth. It’s a life-changing procedure that can be completed in a single day in many cases, with no dentures, no waiting months between steps. Learn more on our All-on-4 page.
Implant Failure & Salvage
If you’ve had implants placed elsewhere that are failing or have already failed, Dr. Doshi offers implant failure and salvage treatment. Not all dentists have the expertise to take on these complex cases, but with 3,000+ placements behind him, Dr. Doshi does.
The Dental Implant Process: What to Expect
Getting dental implants at 360 Dental Lounge follows a clear, well-managed process:
1. Consultation & 3D Imaging We start with a comprehensive exam and a 3D scan of your jaw to evaluate bone density, nerve locations, and the ideal implant position. This planning stage is where precision pays off.
2. Implant Placement The titanium post is placed into the jawbone under local anesthesia (or sedation, if you prefer). Most patients describe the procedure as significantly less uncomfortable than they expected.
3. Osseointegration Over the following weeks, your bone fuses to the implant, creating a stable foundation. This typically takes 3–6 months, depending on the individual.
4. Crown Placement Once integration is confirmed, your custom porcelain crown is attached. You walk out with a complete, natural-looking tooth.
Are You a Candidate for Dental Implants?
Most healthy adults are good candidates for dental implants. The key requirements are:
- Sufficient jawbone density (or willingness to undergo a bone graft if needed)
- Healthy gums free of active gum disease
- No uncontrolled systemic conditions, such as unmanaged diabetes
- Non-smoker, or willingness to stop smoking around the procedure
The best way to find out if implants are right for you is to come in for a consultation. Dr. Doshi will review your imaging, discuss your goals, and give you an honest assessment of your options.
How Much Do Dental Implants Cost in Mansfield, TX?
The cost of a dental implant varies depending on the complexity of the case, whether bone grafting is needed, and the type of restoration being placed. A single implant with a crown typically falls in the range of $3,000–$5,000. All-on-4 full-arch restorations are a larger investment but dramatically less expensive than a lifetime of denture repairs and replacements.
At 360 Dental Lounge, we offer flexible financing options and can work with certain dental insurance plans that include implant coverage. We’ll walk you through all financial options at your consultation.
Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Implants
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care, brushing, flossing, and regular checkups, dental implants can last a lifetime. The crown may eventually need replacement after 15–25 years, but the implant post itself is permanent.
Does getting a dental implant hurt?
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so you shouldn’t feel pain during placement. Mild soreness for a few days afterward is normal and manageable with over-the-counter pain relief.
How many implants has Dr. Doshi placed?
Dr. Doshi has placed more than 3,000 dental implants throughout his career, making him one of the most experienced implant dentists in the Mansfield, TX area.
Can dental implants fail?
Implant failure is uncommon; success rates are above 95% in healthy patients. Risk factors include smoking, poor oral hygiene, and uncontrolled diabetes. If you’ve had a previous implant fail, Dr. Doshi offers salvage treatment.
