Rediscover Your Smile with Dental Implants in Manhattan
Tooth loss affects more than appearance — it impacts confidence, speech, and everyday function. While dentures and bridges have long been the standard, they often involve compromises in comfort, fit, and longevity. Dental implants offer something fundamentally different: a permanent, natural-looking solution that restores both form and function without ongoing maintenance or frequent replacements.
At Lazare Biomimetic Dentistry & Smile Design, we take a collaborative approach to implant care. The surgical placement — whether a single-tooth implant, implant-supported bridge, or full-arch restoration — is performed by a trusted oral surgeon or periodontist we work with closely. Once the implant has healed and integrated with the bone, Dr. Marc Lazare, D.D.S., M.A.G.D., completes the process with a custom-designed crown, bridge, or denture crafted to look and function exactly like a natural tooth.
A missing tooth changes more than your smile — it changes your bite, your bone structure, and your confidence. We restore implants with custom crowns and bridges that look, feel, and function like natural teeth for life.
Our Office in New York City
What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a permanent, two-part tooth replacement — a titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone, topped with a custom-crafted crown, bridge, or denture.
Once the post integrates with the bone, Dr. Marc Lazare restores it using the Biomimetic Smile Makeover™ approach — delivering a natural-looking, functionally superior result with minimal invasiveness.
Dr. Lazare collaborates closely with trusted oral surgeons and periodontists to coordinate every stage seamlessly, from surgical placement to final restoration.
Unlike other tooth replacement options, implants integrate with the jawbone — preventing bone loss, preserving facial structure, and functioning exactly like natural teeth. For patients seeking a permanent, lifelike solution, implants offer both aesthetic and functional results that last a lifetime.
Expert Implant Restoration — From Placement to Final Smile
Dr. Marc Lazare, D.D.S., M.A.G.D., is one of New York City's leading restorative and cosmetic dentists. He works closely with trusted oral surgeons and periodontists to coordinate every stage of your implant journey — from surgical placement to the final, custom-crafted restoration. Every crown, bridge, or implant-supported prosthetic is designed specifically for your smile.
What makes implants the gold standard in tooth replacement is their ability to integrate directly with the jawbone — preventing bone loss, preserving facial structure, and functioning exactly like natural teeth. They reinforce the strength and alignment of your entire bite, delivering a permanent solution that looks, feels, and performs like the real thing.

Crafted to Match. Built to Last.
Dental implants are virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth — in color, shape, size, and feel. Each restoration is custom-designed to blend seamlessly with your surrounding teeth, whether replacing a single tooth, multiple teeth, or supporting a full arch.
A single implant can support a crown, a fixed bridge, or implant-supported dentures — making it one of the most versatile solutions in restorative dentistry. For full mouth reconstruction cases, implant-supported prosthetics deliver natural-looking, long-term results that outperform traditional alternatives in both function and aesthetics.
Unlike a fixed bridge — which requires grinding down healthy teeth on either side of the gap — an implant stands independently, preserving the surrounding tooth structure entirely. This is precisely why implants are considered the superior choice in most tooth replacement cases, particularly when a single tooth is missing.
Types of Implant Restorations We Provide
Single-Tooth Implant Crowns
Implant-Supported Bridges
Implant-Supported Full-Arch Restorations or Dentures
In many cases, patients receive a temporary tooth during the healing period, allowing them to maintain function and appearance until their final teeth or a fixed prosthesis are placed.
We are here for you after the surgical phase — delivering a precise, personalized restoration that brings out your best smile.

What the Research Says About Implant Timing
According to a 2015 study published in the National Journal of Maxillofacial Surgery, immediate implant placement following extraction is most effective for teeth lost due to trauma, fracture, root canal failure, or root resorption caused by retained baby teeth.
Research also suggests that the period following tooth removal can be particularly favorable for bone regeneration — creating an optimal environment for implant integration. Depending on the initial contact between the implant and surrounding bone, a crown is typically placed between two and six months after the post is placed.
Same-Day Dental Implants
In many cases, patients undergo dental implant surgery following tooth extraction. Typically, dental surgeons will delay implant placement for approximately four to six months following the removal, allowing the socket to heal. Experts have studied this practice for over a decade, however, and find that in select cases, it is more advantageous to place an implant directly following the extraction.

Dental Implants NYC: Frequently Asked Questions
Who Places the Dental Implants and Who Restores Them?
Dental implants involve two distinct areas of expertise. The surgical aspects of the procedure — including extractions of failing teeth, bone grafting, sinus augmentation where indicated, and the placement of the implant itself — are performed by trusted oral surgeons and periodontists with whom Dr. Lazare has long-standing professional relationships. These specialists are selected for their precision, conservative technique, and consistent results.
Once the implant has integrated with the bone and the site is ready to be restored, the case returns to Dr. Lazare. He takes the records, designs the final crown, bridge, or full-arch prosthetic, and personally oversees its fabrication and placement — ensuring it matches your natural teeth in colour, shape, and translucency, and fits perfectly within your bite.
Dr. Lazare is the quarterback of this team approach. He coordinates each phase, manages communication between specialists, and remains your point of contact from the first consultation through the final fitting — so the experience is seamless from start to finish.
Is the Placement of Dental Implants Painful?
Implant surgery is performed by your oral surgeon or periodontist under local anesthesia. For patients who prefer additional comfort, intravenous or oral sedation can be arranged, and in select cases — depending on medical history and case complexity — general anesthesia may be appropriate.
Most patients are surprised by how manageable the procedure is. Some postoperative swelling and mild residual discomfort are normal in the first few days and are easily managed with prescribed or over-the-counter pain medication. Dr. Lazare and the surgical specialists he works with take every step — clinical and personal — to ensure the entire experience is calm, comfortable, and well-supported from start to finish.
Why Are Dental Implants a Good Option for Missing Teeth?
Dental implants are uniquely effective because they replace not just the visible tooth, but the root structure beneath it. By integrating directly with the jawbone, an implant stimulates the surrounding bone the way a natural tooth root would — preventing the bone loss that follows tooth extraction and helping to preserve facial structure over time.
In addition to halting bone deterioration, implants restore a healthy, balanced bite and full chewing function, support the surrounding gum tissue, and deliver an aesthetic result that is virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth. For most patients in good overall health, dental implants are the most reliable, longest-lasting solution available for missing teeth — and a long-term investment in both oral health and confidence.
