Dental Implants in Nashville, TN

Missing one or more teeth? Dental implants restore the look, feel, and function of your smile with long-term reliability. At Belle Meade Family Dentistry, we provide full-scope dental implant solutions in Nashville, from single-tooth replacements to full-arch restorations like All-on-4.

Whether you’re struggling to chew, hiding your smile, or tired of loose dentures, our implant dentistry options offer a secure, life-changing upgrade.

What are dental implants?

Dental implants are small titanium posts placed in the jawbone to support a crown, bridge, or denture. Once healed, they function like a natural tooth root — stable, strong, and long-lasting.

Each implant consists of three parts:

• Implant post: Surgically placed into the jawbone
  
• Abutment: Connects the post to the visible restoration
  
• Crown, bridge, or denture: The visible tooth or teeth replacement
  

Benefits of implants over bridges or dentures

• Permanent solution — no slipping or adhesives
  
• Preserves bone and facial structure
  
• Restores chewing power
  
• Looks and feels like your real teeth
  

Easy to care for with brushing and flossing

We provide a full range of implant options for patients across Nashville, Belle Meade, and surrounding areas:

● Single Tooth Implants

Perfect for replacing a single missing tooth without altering neighboring teeth.

● Implant Restorations

Have an existing implant that needs a new crown or repair? We restore damaged or outdated restorations placed elsewhere.

Who is a candidate?

You may be a candidate for dental implants if you:

• Are missing one or more teeth
  
• Have good oral health and stable bone structure
  
• Are looking for a permanent, non-removable solution
  
• Don’t want to deal with the downsides of traditional dentures
  

We'll assess your oral health and use 3D CT scanning to plan your case accurately.

Implant placement is a routine surgical procedure. For added comfort, we offer oral sedation, especially helpful for anxious patients or more complex treatments like All-on-4.

Cost and financing

Implants are an investment — but the results are worth it. The cost depends on the number of implants, type of restoration, and whether bone grafting is needed. We’ll provide a clear breakdown of treatment options and costs upfront.
