Dental Implants Vancouver, WA

Proudly serving Hazel Dell, Felida, Salmon Creek, Battle Ground, Ridgefield, Camas, Washougal, North Portland, and all across Clark County.

Are you missing one or more teeth? Do you struggle with dentures that slip, click, or make eating uncomfortable?

Dental implants are one of modern dentistry’s greatest achievements. They offer a permanent solution for missing teeth that look, feel, and function just like real teeth. This restorative dentistry approach fuses with your jawbone, preserving bone structure, preventing facial sagging, and delivering results that can last a lifetime.

At Hazel Dell Dental Care, Dr. Erik Jenson combines Dawson Academy training with advanced digital technology to provide implant solutions that are stable, comfortable, and built to last.

Why Choose a Dawson-Trained Dentist for Your Implant?

Dr. Erik Jenson is Dawson-trained. He has completed rigorous post-graduate education at the prestigious Dawson Academy. This advanced training focuses on “Complete Dentistry,” understanding how your teeth, jaw joints, and bite work together as one integrated system.

Why does this matter for your dental implant? Because an implant placed without considering your bite can fail, crack, or loosen. It can even cause jaw pain or headaches you didn’t have before.

Dr. Jenson ensures your implant is placed with your entire chewing system in mind so it lasts for decades, not just years. None of the top implant providers in Vancouver offers this level of comprehensive training.

Implant-Specific Credibility:

• Dawson-Trained: Advanced training in Complete Dentistry and occlusal disease
• Teeth-in-a-Day: Same-day implant solutions with All-on-4
• 3D CBCT Imaging: Precision-guided implant placement using advanced digital technology
• Comprehensive Care: From bone grafting to final restoration, all coordinated in one place
• Sedation Options: For your comfort during implant surgery

Same-Day Implants: New Teeth in One Appointment

With All-on-4 implant dentures, you can walk into our Vancouver office with missing teeth and walk out with a full, functional smile in one day.

This innovative technique uses just four strategically placed implants to support a full arch of replacement teeth. Because the implants are placed at precise angles, they often eliminate the need for bone grafting, even in patients who have been told they don’t have enough bone.

What same-day implants mean for you:

• No waiting months for your new smile
• No temporary dentures
• No time without teeth
• You eat, smile, and speak normally the same day

Types of Dental Implants We Offer

Single Tooth Implants

Maybe you lost one tooth, a back molar you don’t think about much, or a front tooth that you think about every time you look in the mirror. A single tooth implant is the closest thing to growing a new tooth.

We place a small titanium post into your jawbone where your old tooth root used to be. Over a few months, that post fuses with your bone. Then we attach a custom-made crown on top that matches the color, shape, and size of your other teeth.

The benefit: We don’t have to grind down your healthy neighboring teeth like we would for a bridge. Your natural teeth stay exactly as they are.

Multiple Tooth Implants

Missing several teeth in a row or in different spots around your mouth? We can place two or more implant posts in your jawbone to support a bridge or partial denture. The result is secure, stable teeth that don’t shift, click, or float around like removable partials.

All-on-4 (Teeth in a Day)

If you have lost most or all of your teeth or your remaining teeth are failing, this option can change your life.

Instead of placing an implant for every single tooth (which would be 10-14 implants per jaw), we place just four implants in strategic positions. Two go in the front of your jaw, straight up and down. Two go in the back, angled to target the densest bone. That angled placement often allows us to skip bone grafting entirely.

In most cases, you can walk out of our office the same day with a temporary set of teeth. After your implants heal (usually a few months), we replace the temporary teeth with a permanent, custom-made set.

Bone Grafting: Making Implants Possible Even After Bone Loss

When a tooth has been missing for a long time, your jawbone can shrink because it no longer has a tooth root to stimulate it. This is called bone resorption, and it’s one of the most common reasons patients are told they can’t get implants.

Bone grafting can rebuild the bone in your jaw, making implants possible for patients who might otherwise be told “no.” A bone graft adds bone material to the area where bone is missing or too thin. Over several months, your body regenerates new bone around the graft material, creating a strong, stable foundation for your implant.

Types of grafting we offer:

• Socket preservation: Bone graft placed immediately after tooth extraction
• Ridge augmentation: Building bone volume for implant placement
• Sinus lift: Adding bone in the upper back jaw near the sinuses

Bone grafting adds 3 to 6 months to your treatment timeline, but it makes implants possible for patients who have been missing teeth for years.

Precision-Guided Implant Placement with 3D CBCT Imaging

Successful dental implants begin with accurate diagnostics. At Hazel Dell Dental Care, we use 3D CBCT imaging. It’s advanced digital technology that creates a detailed 3D model of your jawbone, teeth, and surrounding structures.

Here’s how this benefits you:

• Precise planning: We evaluate bone volume, density, and anatomy before surgery
• Safe placement: We avoid nerves, sinuses, and other critical structures
• Predictable outcomes: Precision placement means better healing and longer-lasting results
• No surprises: You will see a clear picture of your treatment before we begin

This technology, combined with Dr. Jenson’s Dawson training, ensures your implant is placed exactly where it needs to be the first time.

The Dental Implant Process: Step by Step

Step 1: Your First Visit (Consultation)

Every implant journey starts with a conversation. Dr. Jenson examines your teeth, gums, and jaw joints. He takes X-rays and 3D scans to see your bone density.

Step 2: Getting Your Mouth Ready

Sometimes, your mouth needs a little prep work. If your jawbone is too thin, we may recommend a bone graft. If you have gum disease, we treat that first.

Step 3: Implant Placement Day

Dr. Jenson numbs the area (sedation is available if you are nervous). He makes a tiny incision in your gum and gently places the titanium post into your jawbone. For a single implant, the procedure takes about an hour.

Step 4: Healing (Osseointegration)

Over 3-6 months, your jawbone fuses with the implant. If you are getting All-on-4 implants, you receive a temporary set of teeth the same day as surgery.

Step 5: Connecting the Abutment

Once healed, Dr. Jenson attaches a small connector piece called an abutment. It’s the adapter between your implant and your new tooth.

Step 6: Your New Tooth

Dr. Jenson attaches your custom-made crown, bridge, or full-arch restoration. The restoration matches your natural teeth in color, shape, and size.

Step 7: Keeping Your Implant Healthy for Life

Brush it, floss it, and see Dr. Jenson for regular checkups. That’s it. With good care, your implant can last decades.
