Dental Implant Restoration in Tulsa, OK
Expert Repairs and Replacement Crowns for Damaged or Failing Implants
Dental implants are designed to be a long-term solution—but like any dental restoration, they may occasionally need maintenance or repair. At Dental Surgical Arts of Tulsa, we specialize in dental implant restoration for patients experiencing issues with their implant crowns, abutments, or surrounding tissues.
Whether you're dealing with a loose implant crown, worn or damaged prosthetics, or discomfort around an existing implant, our experienced team is here to restore the function, aesthetics, and stability of your smile.
What Is Dental Implant Restoration?
Implant restoration refers to the process of repairing or replacing components of an existing dental implant. This may include:
- Replacing a chipped, cracked, or worn crown
- Repairing a loose or damaged abutment
- Restoring an implant-supported bridge or denture
- Addressing tissue concerns around the implant site
It's different from implant placement, which involves surgically inserting the titanium post. If you're interested in receiving a new implant, visit our main Dental Implants page for more details.
Signs You May Need Implant Restoration
If you already have a dental implant and notice any of the following, it’s time to schedule an evaluation:
- Loose or shifting implant crown
- Pain or sensitivity near the implant site
- Visible cracks or damage in the crown or denture
- Gum recession or irritation around the implant
- Changes in bite or alignment
We treat implant issues whether the original work was done here or at another dental office.
Our Implant Restoration Process
At Dental Surgical Arts of Tulsa, we begin with a thorough clinical and radiographic evaluation to determine the source of the problem. From there, your restoration may involve:
- Removing and replacing the crown or prosthetic
- Re-seating or tightening a loose abutment
- Treating soft tissue inflammation around the implant
- Recommending implant-supported dentures or single tooth implant upgrades if needed
We use high-quality materials and digital imaging to ensure your new restoration is both functional and natural-looking.

FAQs: Dental Implant Restoration in Tulsa
- What’s the difference between implant placement and implant restoration?: Placement refers to the surgical insertion of the implant post. Restoration involves the visible part—like crowns, bridges, or dentures—that attach to the implant.
- Can a damaged implant crown be replaced without removing the implant?: Yes. If the implant post is stable, we can typically replace the crown or abutment without additional surgery.
- Is implant restoration painful?: No. Most restoration procedures are non-surgical and involve little to no discomfort.
- What if my implant is loose?: A loose implant may indicate an issue with the crown, abutment, or even the implant itself. We’ll diagnose the source and recommend the appropriate solution.
- Do you restore implants placed by other dentists?: Yes. We routinely work with patients who had implants placed elsewhere and now need repair, replacement, or evaluation.
