Care for Missing, Broken and Painful Teeth
Most of our patients come to us for dental implants, either a single tooth or a full arch. We also make dentures, perform extractions and wisdom teeth removal, and save damaged teeth with root canals. When a tooth suddenly hurts or breaks, we set aside time for urgent relief so you are not left waiting days to be seen.
Dental Implants
Single-tooth, multi-tooth and implant-supported options, planned from a 3D scan with each stage and healing period mapped out before we begin.
Emergency Dentistry
Prompt appointments for toothaches, cracked teeth, swelling and lost crowns, with honest timing and a clear plan for what comes next.
Dentures
Full, partial and immediate dentures made over a set series of visits, with each step and its timing explained before we begin.
Root Canals
Save a painful or infected tooth with a root canal, planned around realistic visit times and a clear path to the final crown.
Extractions
Careful removal of damaged or failing teeth, with a realistic healing timeline and a plan for what replaces the tooth afterward.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Removal of crowded, trapped or sore wisdom teeth, with a 3D scan first and a visit timed around work, school and recovery.
Why Patients Choose Our Practice
Implant care unfolds over months, not hours. We think the most useful thing we can give you is a schedule you can actually rely on.
Implant planning backed by advanced training
Your implant treatment is planned and placed by a Board-certified clinician. That training shows in the planning, from reading the CBCT scan to choosing where and how deep each implant sits.
Your timeline is written down
Before anything is placed, you receive a dated outline of every visit: the consultation, the extraction if one is needed, implant placement, healing, and the final crown or bridge. You can plan work, travel and family events around it.
We tell you when plans change
Bone sometimes heals slower than expected, or a graft needs extra time. When that happens, we call you, explain what we saw and give you the new dates. You hear it from us before your next appointment, not at it.
Materials chosen for how they wear
Final crowns are shaded and shaped to sit beside your natural teeth without drawing attention. We explain the options for crowns, bridges and denture bases plainly so you understand what you are paying for and how it will hold up.
Clear paths to pay
We are in-network with 15+ major PPO dental insurance plans. For patients without insurance, our in-house Membership Plan is an option, and 0% interest financing for up to 24 months is available, with no credit score impact to check for preapproval.
A Practice Built Around Implant Care
Hickory Creek Dental Implants focuses on one thing patients care about most when they lose a tooth: getting back a smile and a bite that work, without the process taking over their lives. We spend time on planning so that the treatment itself is calm and predictable.
Our office is set up for comfortable, unhurried visits. We explain what we see on your scan, show you the images, and give you an honest answer about whether a tooth can be saved with a root canal or is better replaced. If you are new to us, the $89 New Patient Special covers a full exam and cleaning, which is a good starting point before any larger work.

How Your Treatment Runs, Step by Step
Every patient follows the same basic path. What changes is how long each stage takes for you.
- 1
A phone call to set the first visit
Tell us what is going on and when you are free. We book your focused evaluation at a time that fits, and we can answer early questions by phone or video.
- 2
Evaluation and scan
The $25 Focused Evaluation includes a comprehensive exam, digital X-rays, a CBCT scan if needed, treatment planning and a consultation. The scan lets us see bone height and nearby nerves in three dimensions.
- 3
Your written plan and dates
We go over your options, the cost of each, and a realistic calendar. You take it with you and decide in your own time.
- 4
Placement and healing
The implant is placed with local anesthetic and gentle care. Healing usually takes a few months while the bone bonds to the implant, and we check in along the way.
- 5
Your final teeth
Once healing is confirmed, we fit the crown, bridge or denture, check your bite and adjust until it feels natural.

Questions Patients Ask Us
- How long does the whole dental implant process take?
- For most patients it runs several months from evaluation to final crown, because the bone needs time to bond with the implant. If an extraction or bone graft comes first, add some healing time for that. You get a written timeline at your evaluation, and we update it if your healing calls for a change.
- Does getting an implant hurt?
- The area is numbed with local anesthetic, and most patients describe pressure rather than pain during placement. Some soreness for a few days afterward is normal. We give you clear aftercare instructions and check on how you are feeling.
- Do you take my dental insurance?
- We are in-network with 15+ major PPO dental insurance plans. When you call, have your plan details ready and we will tell you whether we are in-network. We review your benefits before treatment so you know what coverage applies.
- What if I don't have insurance?
- Our in-house Membership Plan is designed for uninsured patients. We also offer 0% interest financing for up to 24 months, and checking for preapproval has no credit score impact. We can explain both options by phone.
- Can my damaged tooth be saved instead of replaced?
- Often it can. If the root and surrounding bone are sound, a root canal and a crown may keep the tooth working for years. If the scan shows a crack below the gum line or too little support, we explain why an implant is the better long-term choice and show you the images.
- Should I get an implant or dentures?
- It depends on how many teeth are missing, the condition of your bone and your budget. Implants feel and function like natural teeth, while dentures can replace a full arch at a lower cost, and implant-supported dentures sit in between. We go through each option with you at your evaluation.
- I have a tooth that hurts right now. Can you see me?
- Call us and describe what is happening. We keep time open for patients with a painful, cracked or broken tooth and will offer you the soonest appointment we have. If the tooth needs an extraction or a root canal, we explain the choice before we begin.
What Shapes the Cost of Your Treatment
No two mouths need quite the same work, so we price from your exam and scan rather than from a menu. Here is what moves the number up or down. You will see each item listed in your written estimate before you agree to anything.
Your estimate is written line by line after your evaluation, so you can compare stages and timing before you commit. If something changes during treatment, we explain it and update the estimate first.
- How many teeth are involved
- A single implant and crown is a different plan from a bridge on two implants or a full arch that supports a fixed set of teeth. More implants mean more parts and more chair time.
- Bone and gum condition
- After a tooth has been missing for a while, the jawbone often shrinks. If the scan shows too little bone, a graft may be needed first, which adds a step and extra healing time.
- Whether a tooth must come out first
- A failing tooth may need an extraction before an implant can go in. Sometimes the implant can be placed the same day; other times the site needs to heal first.
- The final restoration
- Crowns, bridges and implant-supported dentures differ in material and lab work. We walk you through what each choice means for appearance and durability.
- Your insurance and payment plan
- PPO coverage, our Membership Plan and financing each change what you pay out of pocket and when. We check your benefits and show you the breakdown before treatment.
