Dental Implants
Permanent, natural-looking tooth replacement solutions in Austin.
Restore Your Smile in North Austin
Missing teeth can affect not just your smile, but your ability to eat, speak, and live with confidence. At Lilac Dental, located conveniently off Interstate 35 in Austin (78753), we specialize in restoring smiles with state-of-the-art dental implants.
Dental implants are the gold standard for tooth replacement. Unlike dentures that slip or bridges that require grinding down healthy teeth, implants provide a permanent, stable foundation that looks and feels exactly like your natural teeth.

The Implant Process at Lilac Dental
1. Consultation & 3D Scanning
We start with a comprehensive exam at our Austin office using advanced 3D CBCT imaging to evaluate your bone density and plan the precise placement of your implant.
2. Implant Placement
The titanium post is gently placed into the jawbone. This procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia, and most patients report minimal discomfort.
3. Healing & Osseointegration
Over 3-6 months, the implant fuses with your natural bone. This biological bond provides a rock-solid foundation for your new tooth.
4. Your New Smile
Once healed, we attach a custom-crafted porcelain crown. You leave our office with a complete, beautiful, and fully functional smile.
Implant Solutions We Offer

Perfect for replacing one missing tooth without grinding down neighboring teeth for a bridge.
Implant-Supported Bridges
Ideal for replacing 3 or more teeth in a row using just two implants for support.
Implant Dentures (All-on-4)
Secure loose dentures permanently. No more messy adhesives or slipping while you talk.
Common Questions
How long do implants last?
With proper care (brushing, flossing, and regular checkups), the titanium implant screw can last a lifetime. The porcelain crown may need replacement after 15-20 years due to normal wear.
Does insurance cover implants?
Many insurance plans now cover a portion of the implant procedure. We also accept CareCredit and offer flexible financing options to make your smile restoration affordable.
