Rediscover Your Smile with Dental Implants in Manhattan
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. Dental implants can transform smiles and boost confidence by providing a natural-looking, functional replacement for missing teeth. 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. Dental implants are used to replace missing teeth and are considered a permanent solution, eliminating the need for frequent replacements or extensive future procedures. 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
An abutment, which is a connector attached to the implant after it has fused with the bone, supporting the final crown, bridge, or denture
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. The missing tooth is replaced with a lifelike restoration, and the final teeth are crafted for long-term function and aesthetics.
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. During your consultation, our dental team will determine if you are a good candidate for dental implants by assessing your oral health and bone structure.
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 are commonly used to replace missing teeth and provide patients with permanent teeth that restore both function and aesthetics. 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. These restorations are types of prosthesis often used in full mouth reconstruction cases to achieve natural-looking, long-term solutions. 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.
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.

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.
