Transform Your Smile with Advanced Dental Implant Solutions
Are you struggling with missing teeth? Looking for a permanent solution that feels and functions like natural teeth? At Amazing Smile Dentistry in Las Vegas, Dr. Joseph Gelo and our expert team provide state-of-the-art dental implant treatments designed to restore both function and beauty to your smile.
What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are titanium or zirconia posts surgically placed into your jawbone that serve as artificial tooth roots. Developed in 1952 by Swedish surgeon Per-Ingevar Branemark, implants have evolved to become the gold standard for tooth replacement.
Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, implants fuse with your jawbone through a process called osseointegration, which typically takes 3-6 months. Once healed, these sturdy foundations support custom-made crowns, bridges, or dentures that match your natural teeth in appearance and function.
Why Choose Dental Implants at Amazing Smile Dentistry?
When you visit our modern practice at 6252 S. Rainbow Blvd., Suite 130 in Las Vegas, you’ll experience the difference that advanced implant dentistry can make. Our dental implants offer:
- Natural look and feel – Implants closely mimic natural teeth in appearance, function, and comfort
- Long-lasting results – With proper care, implants can last decades or even a lifetime
- Bone preservation – Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing the bone loss that typically occurs with missing teeth
- Stability and security – No slipping or clicking like traditional dentures
- Unrestricted diet – Enjoy all your favorite foods without worry
- No decay concerns – Implants don’t develop cavities like natural teeth
- Preservation of adjacent teeth – Unlike bridges, implants don’t require grinding down neighboring teeth
Am I a Candidate for Dental Implants?
Wondering if dental implants are right for you? With a remarkable success rate of over 95%, many patients qualify for this life-changing treatment. Ideal candidates:
- Have sufficient jawbone density to support implants
- Maintain good oral hygiene habits
- Are free from active periodontal disease
- Are committed to regular dental check-ups
Don’t worry if you have bone loss—Dr. Gelo offers bone grafting procedures to build up your jaw’s foundation when needed. During your consultation at our Las Vegas office, we’ll thoroughly evaluate your oral health to determine if implants are the right solution for your specific needs.
Advanced Treatment Planning for Optimal Results
At Amazing Smile Dentistry, we believe precision is key to successful implant treatment. That’s why we utilize cutting-edge CBCT scanning technology and digital planning software to map out every detail of your implant procedure.
This meticulous approach allows Dr. Gelo, who has completed over 500 hours of specialized implant education and earned his Associate Fellowship of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry, to plan your case from both surgical and prosthetic perspectives. The result? Perfectly positioned implants that support beautiful, functional restorations.
Innovative Implant Options
We offer several advanced implant solutions to meet your specific needs:
Single Tooth Replacement
One implant topped with a custom-made crown replaces a single missing tooth without affecting adjacent teeth.
Multiple Tooth Replacement
Two or more strategically placed implants can support a fixed bridge to replace several missing teeth in a row.
Full-Arch Replacement
Revolutionary All-on-4® and All-on-6® techniques use just four or six implants to support an entire arch of teeth, often allowing for same-day teeth placement.
Implant-Supported Overdentures
For those who prefer removable options, implant-supported overdentures offer greater stability and comfort than traditional dentures.
Types of Implants We Offer
At Amazing Smile Dentistry, we provide options to suit your unique needs:
- Titanium implants – The traditional gold standard, known for exceptional durability and biocompatibility
- Metal-free zirconia implants – Perfect for patients with metal sensitivities or those who prefer a holistic approach
- Immediate implants – Placed at the same time as tooth extraction to reduce treatment time
- Same-day implants – Temporary restorations attached immediately, so you never leave without teeth

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Implants
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care and regular dental check-ups, dental implants can last 20+ years or even a lifetime. The crown portion may need replacement after 10-15 years due to normal wear.
Are dental implant procedures painful?
Most patients report minimal discomfort during and after implant surgery. We use effective local anesthesia during the procedure, and any post-operative discomfort can typically be managed with over-the-counter pain medications.
How much do dental implants cost in Las Vegas?
The cost varies depending on your specific needs, including the number of implants and any preparatory procedures required. We offer financing options to make this investment in your oral health more accessible.
How do I care for my dental implants?
Implants require the same care as natural teeth—regular brushing, flossing, and professional cleanings. While implants don’t decay, the surrounding gum tissue needs proper care to prevent peri-implantitis.
How long is the recovery time after implant surgery?
Initial healing occurs within 1-2 weeks, but complete osseointegration takes 3-6 months. Many patients return to normal activities within a day or two after surgery.
