Rediscover Your Smile with Dental Implants

Tooth loss isn’t just about a missing tooth — it can affect your confidence, your speech, and your ability to enjoy life’s simple pleasures. While traditional options like dentures and bridges have helped many, they often come with compromises in comfort and long-term success.


Dental implants offer a long-lasting, natural-looking solution that helps restore both function and beauty. But here’s what you should know: we don’t place the implants surgically in our office.

Instead, we work closely with trusted oral surgeons and periodontists who handle the surgical placement of the implant, including procedures like single-tooth implants, implant-supported bridges, and full-arch restorations. Once the area has healed, Dr. Marc Lazare, D.D.S., M.A.G.D., steps in to complete the process — restoring the implant with a custom-designed crown, bridge, or denture that looks and functions just like a natural tooth.

What Are Dental Implants?

A dental implant is a two-part restoration:

  • A titanium post placed into the jawbone (by a surgeon) that replaces the tooth’s root

  • A custom-designed artificial tooth (the crown, bridge, or denture) placed on top (by us)

Once the post has integrated with the bone, we restore it with a beautifully crafted, natural-looking replacement — using the Biomimetic Smile Makeover™ approach that emphasizes Bio-emulation for strength, aesthetics, and minimal invasiveness.

At the forefront of implant restoration, Dr. Marc Lazare, D.D.S., M.A.G.D., is a leading restorative and cosmetic dentist in New York City. He collaborates closely with oral surgeons and periodontists to ensure a smooth, coordinated process—from the surgical placement of implants to the final restoration. Dr. Lazare specializes in designing and placing lifelike crowns, bridges, or implant-supported prosthetics, tailored to each patient's smile.


What sets dental implants apart is their ability to integrate with the jawbone, preventing bone loss and maintaining facial structure. They function just like natural teeth and reinforce the strength and alignment of the entire bite. For those seeking a permanent, reliable solution to tooth loss, implants offer both aesthetic and functional benefits that significantly enhance quality of life.

Implants are often indistinguishable from natural teeth, except when seen on dental x-rays. They feel and function like normal teeth. The color, shape, and size of each new tooth will be crafted to match the surrounding teeth. Dental implants can provide patients with a more beautiful smile, replacing missing teeth, unhealthy teeth, or teeth that do not match the set due to imperfections in their size, shape, or color. Implants are highly customizable, so individual results may vary.


An implant can support a single crown, a fixed bridge, or overlying implant-supported dentures. Practitioners and patients alike see dental implants as a superior treatment option over other types of tooth replacement in most cases, especially when only a single tooth is missing.


A fixed dental bridge will also stabilize the area of a single missing tooth, but this procedure requires the teeth on either side of the treatment site to have some surrounding tooth structure ground down to allow room for the materials of the three-unit crown fixture to be placed. Implant-supported dentures combine a permanent fixture with removable dentures for cases where multiple dental implants are not feasible.

It was my first time visiting and I had the best experience ever! Dr. Lazare and the entire team were fantastic and made me feel so comfortable. The office is beautiful and very clean. I had a chipped front tooth and multiple dentists have recommended I get a crown, but Dr Lazare was able to reconstruct my front tooth all in one visit. It looks so natural i am very happy with my experience in this office. Highly recommend!

Take the Next Step

According to an article in the 2015 National Journal of Maxillofacial Surgery, the immediate placement of a single tooth following extraction is best suited for teeth lost due to trauma, fracture, root canal failure, and root absorption caused by residual baby teeth. Some dental professionals believe that bone growth is especially apt to occur following tooth removal. The implant may require between two and six months for the addition of a crown due to the initial lack of contact between the bone and implant.

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.

Who Places the Dental Implants and Who Restores Them?

Dr. Lazare works with very talented Oral Surgeons and Periodontists who perform the surgical aspects of the procedure, including the extractions of failing teeth, bone grafting, and the placement of the implant(s). Once everything is healed and ready to be restored, Dr. Lazare will then take the necessary records in order to create beautiful and natural looking crown(s) to then fit over the implant(s). Dr. Lazare is the quarterback for this team approach and will work to make everything seamless from start to finish.

Is the Placement of Dental Implants Painful?

The doctor will perform dental implant surgery under local anesthesia, and with some patients, the addition of intravenous sedation. If medically necessary, general anesthesia may prove to be the better option, depending on a patient’s medical history. Patients may experience some postoperative swelling and residual discomfort, which can be reduced with pain medications. Dr. Lazare and the specialists he refers to take every step to ensure great dental experiences for his patients.

Why Are Dental Implants a Good Option for Missing Teeth?

Dental implants New York City can promote the regeneration of lost bone while restoring a healthy bite and a full set of teeth in patients who are lacking one or more of these vital attributes.

Is the Dental Implant Process Time-Consuming?

Candidates for implant dentistry, whether approved for immediate placement after extraction or not, should understand that replacing missing teeth can be a lengthy process.
