Expertise in Dental Implants and Periodontal Health

Dental implants at Highlands Ranch Periodontics & Implant Center are placed by board-certified periodontist, Dr. Bahman (Mike) Norouzinia. Our team focuses on the health of the gums, bone, and supporting structures that make successful implant treatment possible.

Using guided implant placement and detailed surgical planning, every procedure is designed with precision, long-term support, and patient comfort in mind.

Treatment Planned Around the Patient

No two implant cases are exactly alike. Bone support, gum health, bite alignment, and overall oral health all play a role in treatment planning.

Our practice is known for taking time with patients, explaining treatment clearly, and building care plans based on what the patient truly needs rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.

Dental Hygienist Anna was absolutely wonderful! She had a lot of work to do with a deep cleaning. I didn’t feel a thing, she was very personable which was a nice distraction throughout the procedure. I’d happily see her again!

Eric, thank you — I'll pass this to Anna. Thorough, comfortable care is exactly what we aim for.

I cannot recommend Highlands Ranch Periodontics and Dental Implants enough. Dr. Mike and his staff, Syn and Edward, were wonderful. Dr. Mike was the third doctor I’d seen about a gum issue, and the first to look beyond treating the symptoms. He took a tissue sample and sent it for testing, which helped identify the issue and provided a clear direction for exploring its underlying cause. I’m grateful for his thorough approach and the care I received from the entire team.

Denise, thank you. Looking for the underlying cause — not just treating symptoms — is how we try to do right by patients.

I’ve had a really good experience with Dr. Mike and his team so far. I had periodontal surgery on my upper left side and everything went very smoothly. He explained my condition and treatment options clearly and never made me feel rushed. What I appreciate most is that he doesn’t push for unnecessary treatment. My treatment isn’t finished yet, and for now we’re waiting to see how everything heals before deciding what to do next. I really appreciate that approach. Everyone in the office has also been very nice and helpful. I still have more treatment ahead of me, but so far I’m very happy I chose Dr. Mike.

Owner's reply
Manqing, Thank you for the thoughtful review. Our philosophy has always been to recommend only the treatment that is truly needed and to look for the most appropriate solution for each situation.

We’re grateful for your kind words and support.

My experience at HR Perio was truly 5/5! From start to finish, the entire team made me feel incredibly comfortable, cared for, and at ease throughout my procedure and recovery. When I experienced some discomfort on day 5 post-op, Dr. Mike told me to come straight in and took care of me right away, at no additional charge. That level of care meant so much to me. I came in today for my two-week post-op appointment with my 5-month-old daughter, and all of the staff were practically fighting over who got to snuggle her! 😂 The entire team is kind, welcoming, and genuinely cares about their patients. Truly a one-of-a-kind experience. I couldn’t recommend HR Perio enough!

Owner's reply
Stuart, Thank you so much for sharing this. It genuinely means a lot to me. One of the most important parts of what we do is recognizing that every patient comes in with a different history, different concerns, and a different level of comfort with treatment.

We take the time to listen, tailor the treatment to the person in front of us, and do everything we can to make the experience feel calm, comfortable, and predictable. I’m grateful that you trusted me and our team with your care, especially knowing the experiences you had in the past.

Hygienist seemed thorough and staff was friendly. Somewhat bothered however by new credit card surcharge that was not verbally disclosed and is in excess of allowable amount in Colorado.

Owner's reply
Scott, Thank you for the kind words about our hygienist and team, and we sincerely appreciate you bringing up your concern about the credit-card processing fee. This is such an important topic and its effects on small business's. We completely understand how frustrating it can be to see an additional fee when making a payment, and we’re sorry that it was not communicated clearly beforehand. We never want a patient to feel surprised by a charge. As an independently owned practice, we try to keep our fees as fair and transparent as possible. Rather than increasing treatment fees for every patient to account for credit-card processing costs, our system applies the processing cost only when a credit card is used. The amount is based on the processing rate associated with that specific card, and different cards can carry different rates. We do not add an additional markup to that amount, and the processing fee is retained by the merchant services provider rather than becoming revenue for our practice. We also want patients to know that there are ways to avoid the fee entirely. Debit-card payments do not carry the credit-card processing charge, and our team is always happy to review payment options before a transaction is completed. We are very grateful for the support of our patients and for the opportunity to remain a locally owned, doctor-led practice. Our goal is to continue providing personalized, high-quality care while being as transparent as possible about the costs associated with treatment. Thank you again for the feedback—it helps us improve our communication and our patient experience.

From making the appointment to the final evaluation, my entire experience was that of warmth and comfort from Dr. Norouzinia and staff. I had sought a second opinion on a previous prognosis and Dr. Norouzinia confirmed my suspicions. He performed a more thorough examination than the prior provider with a much better prognosis. In a nutshell, this patient recommends Highlands Ranch Perio. 💯

Owner's reply
Robert, Thank you for such a thoughtful review and for trusting us with a second opinion. One of the most important parts of what we do is taking the time to understand the full picture before recommending treatment. Sometimes the best value we can provide is confirming a diagnosis, and other times it is questioning an assumption, looking more closely, or finding a different path altogether. Our goal is never to rush someone into treatment, it is to give them the clearest, most honest assessment we can so they can make the right decision for their situation. We truly appreciate the recommendation and the trust you placed in our team.

Why Choose a Periodontist for Dental Implants

A periodontist specializes in the gums, bone, and supporting structures surrounding the teeth. This advanced training is especially important when planning and placing dental implants.

Successful implant treatment depends on:

  • Healthy gum tissue
  • Adequate bone support
  • Precise implant positioning
  • Long-term stability around the implant

At Highlands Ranch Periodontics & Implant Center, implant treatment is planned with careful attention to both function and periodontal health. Guided implant placement technology allows for highly detailed planning before surgery even begins.

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are replacement tooth roots designed to support crowns, bridges, or implant-supported dentures. The implant itself is a small titanium post placed into the jawbone where a tooth is missing.

The implant fuses with the surrounding bone through a process called osseointegration. This creates a stable foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel, and function more like natural teeth than traditional removable options.

Dental implants can be used to replace:

  • A single missing tooth
  • Several missing teeth
  • An entire arch of missing teeth
  • Loose or unstable dentures

Parts of a Dental Implant

A dental implant is made up of several components that work together to replace a missing tooth.

These parts include:

  • The implant post: A titanium post placed into the jawbone to act as the replacement tooth root
  • The abutment: A connector piece that attaches the implant to the final restoration
  • The restoration: The visible replacement tooth, such as a crown, bridge, or implant-supported denture

Each part plays an important role in the stability, function, and appearance of the final result.

Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental implants do more than fill empty spaces in the smile. They also help support long-term oral health and everyday function.

Benefits of dental implants may include:

  • Improved chewing ability
  • Greater comfort and stability
  • Support for jawbone health
  • Prevention of shifting teeth
  • A more natural appearance
  • Improved speech compared to removable dentures
  • Long-term durability with proper care

Because implants are anchored directly into the jawbone, they function independently without relying on neighboring teeth for support.

Types of Dental Implant Treatment

Dental implant treatment can be customized based on the number of missing teeth and the condition of the surrounding bone and tissue.

Single Tooth Dental Implant

A single tooth dental implant is used to replace one missing tooth. The implant post is placed into the jawbone, where it functions as an artificial tooth root. Once healing is complete, a custom dental crown is attached to restore the appearance and function of the missing tooth.

Multiple Tooth Replacement

Dental implants can also be used to replace several missing teeth in the same area of the mouth. Depending on the number and location of the missing teeth, implants may support a custom bridge designed to restore chewing function, stability, and appearance without requiring a separate implant for every missing tooth.

Full-Arch Dental Implants

Patients missing most or all teeth may benefit from implant-supported full-arch restoration, including All-on-4 dental implants. These systems use strategically placed implants to support a full set of replacement teeth with improved stability and function.

Implant-Supported Dentures

Implant-supported dentures replace most or all missing teeth using dental implants placed in the jawbone for added stability and support. Depending on your needs, the denture may be designed as a removable option that snaps into place or a fixed restoration that remains securely attached.

Bone Grafting for Dental Implants

Bone loss commonly occurs after teeth are lost. In some cases, the jawbone may not have enough support for dental implant placement without additional preparation.

Bone grafting procedures help rebuild areas of lost bone and may improve implant stability. Depending on your needs, treatment may include:

A detailed evaluation and 3D imaging help determine whether bone grafting is recommended before implant placement.

What to Expect During the Dental Implant Process

Dental implant treatment usually takes place in multiple stages.

Consultation and Treatment Planning

Your visit begins with a comprehensive examination, digital imaging, and a discussion of your overall health, goals and oral health needs. This allows the doctors to determine whether implants are appropriate and develop a personalized treatment plan.

Implant Placement Surgery

During implant surgery, the dental implant is carefully placed into the jawbone in the area of the missing tooth. Guided implant placement technology is used to plan the procedure before surgery begins, helping determine the ideal position, angle, and depth of the implant based on the patient’s bone structure and surrounding anatomy.

The procedure is typically performed using local anesthesia along with sedation to help patients remain comfortable throughout treatment. After the implant is placed, the area heals over time as the surrounding bone integrates with the implant to create a stable foundation for the final restoration.

Healing and Osseointegration

Over the next several months, the implant integrates with the surrounding bone. This healing phase is important for long-term stability.

Final Restoration

Once healing is complete and the implant has fully integrated with the surrounding bone, your restorative dentist will attach the final restoration to the implant. Depending on your treatment plan, this may be a custom dental crown, bridge, or implant-supported denture designed to restore appearance, comfort, and function.

Are Dental Implants Right for You?

Many patients with missing teeth may be candidates for dental implants. However, candidacy depends on several factors, including:

  • Gum health
  • Bone volume
  • Overall oral health
  • Smoking habits
  • Certain medical conditions

Even if bone loss has occurred, procedures such as bone grafting may help prepare the area for implants. A periodontal evaluation can determine whether implant treatment is appropriate for your situation.

Schedule a Dental Implant Consultation

Highlands Ranch Periodontics & Implant Center provides advanced dental implant treatment with a focus on individualized care, precision, and long-term oral health.

Whether you are replacing one missing tooth or considering full-arch dental implants, our team will guide you through each stage of treatment with a personalized approach designed around your needs.

FAQ’s About Dental Implants

Q&A Dental Implants

How long do dental implants last?

Implants are designed to be long-lasting. This can range from 10 years to a lifetime; however, the long-term success depends on proper oral hygiene. It’s important to brush and floss regularly and to see your dentist for regular checkups and cleanings. 

How do dental implants work?

The implants are small titanium posts that are placed into the jawbone to act as a replacement for the roots of missing teeth. The implants fuse to the bone, providing a strong and stable foundation for the placement of replacement teeth. 

What do dental implants look like? 

Implants are small titanium posts that are placed into the jawbone. They are not visible once the replacement teeth are in place. The replacement teeth are made to match your natural teeth in color and shape.

Who is not suitable for dental implants?

Implants are not suitable for everyone. People with certain medical conditions, such as uncontrolled diabetes or periodontal disease, may not be suitable for dental implants. People who have had radiation therapy to the head or neck may not be candidates for implants. Your provider can determine if you are a good candidate for dental implants.

Are dental implants painful?

The Implant procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia, so you should not feel any pain during the surgery. You may experience discomfort and swelling after the surgery, but this can be controlled with pain medication.
