Dental Implants in Kennewick, Yakima & Walla Walla

Dental implants are the most durable, natural-looking solution for missing teeth. At EW Implants & Periodontics Center, we specialize in implant surgery and full arch restoration, offering patients in Kennewick, Yakima, and Walla Walla a permanent way to restore function, esthetics, and long-term oral health.

Led by Dr. Abdullah Alkanan, a board-certified periodontist, we provide complete dental implant care using advanced imaging, guided surgical techniques, and trusted implant systems.

What Are Dental Implants?

A dental implant is a small titanium post that is surgically placed in the jawbone, acting as a replacement tooth root. Once the implant fuses with the bone, it supports a custom crown, bridge, or full arch prosthesis.

Benefits of dental implants include:

  • Permanent solution for missing teeth
  • Preserves bone and slows facial aging
  • No slipping or adhesives like dentures
  • Feels and functions like a natural tooth
  • Supports chewing, speech, and smile esthetics
  • Prevents bone loss and sunken facial appearance

Implants are the only tooth replacement that actively preserves the underlying jawbone, helping to maintain facial volume and structure over time.

Types of Dental Implant Solutions We Offer

As a specialty practice, we provide full-scope implant solutions for single, multiple, or full-arch tooth replacement:

All-on-4® Dental Implants

Full-arch tooth replacement using four to six strategically placed implants.

Implant Overdentures

Removable dentures stabilized by implants for improved comfort and retention.

Mini Dental Implants

Narrow implants designed for patients with limited bone or as a denture stabilization option.

Single Tooth Implants

Replace one missing tooth with a durable, natural-looking crown.

If you're not sure which solution is right for you, we’ll evaluate your needs and bone levels with a 3D scan to design a personalized plan.

Who Is a Candidate for Dental Implants?

Most adults with good general health are candidates for implants—even those who have worn dentures or have had missing teeth for many years.

You may benefit from dental implants if:

  • You’re missing one or more teeth
  • You have difficulty chewing or speaking
  • You want to avoid removable dentures
  • You have enough bone (or are open to grafting)
  • You want to preserve your facial structure as you age

If you’ve been told you’re not a candidate elsewhere, we offer advanced bone grafting and mini implants that may open the door to long-term success.

Frequently Asked Questions

Question text goes here

Answer text goes here

Are dental implants better than dentures?

Yes. Implants are more stable, don’t require adhesives, preserve bone, and feel more like natural teeth. They are considered the gold standard in tooth replacement.

What is the recovery time after dental implant surgery?

Initial healing takes about 1–2 weeks, but full osseointegration (bone healing) takes 3–6 months before the final crown or restoration is placed.

Do implants help prevent facial aging?

Yes. Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing the bone loss that leads to sunken cheeks, wrinkles, and premature aging caused by missing teeth.

Are dental implants painful?

Implant placement is done under local anesthesia or sedation, so you won’t feel discomfort during the procedure. Most patients report mild soreness for a few days after.

What if I don’t have enough bone for implants?

We offer bone grafting, ridge augmentation, and mini implants as solutions for low bone volume.
