How We Handle Dental Implants in Plano
Step 1: Comprehensive 3D Assessment
Your journey begins with a thorough consultation and 3D CBCT scan right here in our Coit Road office. This technology allows Dr. Kung to see your bone density, sinus cavities, and nerve pathways in three dimensions—critical for safe, predictable implant placement. We assess your unique “Plano factors” (stress-grinding patterns, sinus health, lifestyle) and create a customized treatment plan. If you’re coming from the Parker, Willow Bend, or Preston Road corridor, we offer flexible scheduling including early morning appointments (we open at 7 AM).
Step 2: Surgical Placement with Sedation Options
On the day of surgery, we prioritize your comfort as much as precision. Many of our Plano patients choose sedation dentistry—especially those who haven’t been to a dentist in years due to anxiety. Dr. Kung places the titanium or zirconia implant fixture into your jawbone, taking specific precautions if you have sinus proximity issues or active allergy symptoms. The procedure is performed in our state-of-the-art surgical suite, and our team (frequently praised in our 1000+ Google reviews) checks on you constantly.
Step 3: Healing, Restoration & Long-Term Protection
After a healing period (typically 3-6 months for osseointegration), we attach your custom-crafted crown, bridge, or denture. For patients with bruxism—common among Legacy West professionals—we fabricate a protective night guard to ensure your investment lasts decades. You’ll leave with a smile that fits your face and personality, and the confidence to stop hiding in photos.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Implants
How do North Texas allergies affect dental implant surgery?
Cedar Fever and seasonal allergies cause inflammation in your maxillary sinuses, which sit directly above your upper back teeth. If an implant is placed too close to an inflamed sinus without proper precautions, it can lead to complications or implant failure. Dr. Kung uses 3D imaging to measure the exact distance to your sinus floor and employs bone grafting or sinus lift techniques when necessary. We also strategically time procedures outside of peak allergy seasons when possible, or coordinate with your allergist for optimal healing conditions.
Can you place implants if I grind my teeth from work stress?
Absolutely. We see this constantly in patients who work in the high-pressure Legacy West and Dallas North Tollway corporate environments. Chronic bruxism can fracture natural teeth, but dental implants are actually more resistant to grinding forces than your original teeth—as long as they’re designed correctly. Dr. Kung factors in your bite force patterns during treatment planning and provides a custom night guard to protect both your implants and any remaining natural teeth. Many of our implant patients report that knowing their smile is “protected” actually reduces their stress-grinding over time.
How long does the dental implant process take in Plano?
From consultation to final crown, the typical timeline is 4-7 months, though we can often expedite for patients with healthy bone density and no complicating factors. Same-day consultations are available, and we work around your commute schedule (whether you’re coming from Richardson, Allen, or North Dallas). For patients needing bone grafting due to delayed care, the timeline extends by 3-4 months—but we’ll give you a clear roadmap at your first visit. No surprises.
