Dental Implants in York and Hanover, PA
What are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth. These biocompatible implants fuse with your natural bone to create a stable foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures.

1.
Permanent Solution
2.
Natural Function
Implants restore full chewing power and allow you to eat all your favorite foods without restriction.
3.
Bone Preservation
Unlike other tooth replacement options, implants stimulate the jawbone to prevent bone loss and maintain facial structure.
4.
Improved Confidence
Implants look, feel, and function like natural teeth, giving you the confidence to smile, speak, and laugh freely.
The implant restoration process is highly predictable and reliable when performed by experienced professionals using modern techniques and materials.
Why are Implants So Successful?
Dental implants have a success rate exceeding 95% due to their integration with the jawbone through osseointegration. At Pennsylvania Perio & Implants, we further enhance this success with advanced techniques like photobiomodulation and recombinant biologics for quicker healing and reduced discomfort.

Am I A Candidate for Dental Implants?
Most adults with missing teeth are excellent candidates for dental implants, especially those with adequate bone density and healthy gums. During your consultation at our York or Hanover office, Dr. Sourvanos will evaluate your oral health, medical history, and bone structure to determine if implants are right for you. Even patients with bone loss may be candidates for additional procedures to restore bone volume.

If you have any questions about dental implants, we’ve got answers.
Many dental insurance plans cover 50-80% of the cost of dental implants. We submit claims as an out-of-network provider, and you’ll be reimbursed directly. Our team can help you understand your benefits and explore financing options, such as CareCredit, to enhance affordability.
The cost of dental implants varies depending on the number required, the complexity of the case, and any additional procedures. Dr. Sourvanos will provide a detailed treatment plan with transparent pricing during your consultation. We also accept CareCredit financing for flexible payment options.
Most patients experience minimal discomfort during and after implant placement, as we use local anesthesia and advanced surgical techniques. Dr. Sourvanos utilizes photobiomodulation and biologics to reduce post-operative pain and accelerate healing. Mild discomfort typically resolves within a few days and can be effectively managed with over-the-counter medications.
Dental implants cannot develop cavities since they’re made of titanium and ceramic materials that don’t decay. However, the gum tissue around implants can still develop infection (called peri-implantitis) if not properly maintained. Regular professional cleanings and excellent home care are crucial to maintaining the health of your implants for life.
Most patients return to normal activities within 24-48 hours after implant placement; however, you should avoid strenuous exercise for approximately a week. We recommend a soft diet for the first few days while the surgical site heals. Dr. Sourvanos utilizes advanced healing techniques, such as photobiomodulation, to minimize swelling and accelerate recovery.
Proper care is essential to maintain the longevity and health of your dental implants. Here are some tips to keep your implants in great condition:
- Good Oral Hygiene: Brush and floss your implants just like your natural teeth. Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and non-abrasive toothpaste.
- Regular Dental Check-ups: Schedule regular check-ups and cleanings with us to monitor the health of your implants and surrounding tissues.
- Healthy Diet: Avoid hard or sticky foods that could damage your implants. Maintain a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals to support overall oral health.
- Avoid Smoking: Smoking can impair healing and increase the risk of implant failure. If you smoke, consider quitting to protect your investment in your oral health.

Abutment: The abutment is the connector piece between a dental implant and the crown.
Osseointegration: Osseointegration is the process by which your dental implant bonds and integrates with the surrounding bone.
