Dental Implants in Queens: Replacing Missing Teeth in Flushing
If you are looking for dental implants in Queens, Queens Crossing Dental is a friendly family practice in the heart of Flushing. Led by Dr. Kevin Yu, DDS, our team speaks English and Mandarin, so you can ask questions and understand your options in the language you are most comfortable with. This page explains what dental implants are, the options for replacing one tooth or a full arch, what a consultation involves, and what to expect along the way.
Every mouth is different. Whether an implant is right for you can only be decided after an exam and a 3D scan.
What is a dental implant?
A dental implant is a small post, usually made of titanium, that is placed in the jawbone to act as an artificial tooth root. Over a period of months, the bone may grow around the post and hold it in place. A crown, bridge or denture is then attached on top.
Many patients choose implants because they can help with chewing and speaking, can help keep the jawbone from shrinking where a tooth is missing, and avoid the need to grind down healthy neighboring teeth, as a traditional bridge would. Compare all your options in our guide to implants, bridges and dentures. Implants are not right for everyone, and results vary from person to person.
Single tooth, full mouth and All-on-4 options
Single tooth. One implant and one crown replace one missing tooth. For two or three missing teeth next to each other, implants may support a small bridge instead of one implant per tooth.
Full mouth dental implants in Queens. When most or all teeth in an arch are missing or failing, a set of implants can be used to support a full-arch bridge or an implant-retained denture. The number and position of implants depends on your bone, your bite and your goals.
All-on-4 dental implants in Queens. All-on-4 is a well-known approach in which a full arch of teeth is supported by four implants. Some patients are candidates and some are not. Bone volume, gum health and bite forces all play a part, and sometimes a different number of implants, or bone grafting first, is a better plan.
Dr. Yu will explain which options may fit your situation and what each one involves. If you are not sure which term describes you, that is fine. Start with a consultation.
What the implant consultation involves
The consultation is for exam and planning only. No surgery is done at this visit. It includes:
- A review of your health history and medications.
- An exam of your teeth, gums and bite.
- A CBCT (3D) scan, which shows bone height and width and the location of nerves and sinuses.
- A discussion of options, including alternatives to implants, and the next steps.
The implant consultation with CBCT scan is $400. This fee is not credited toward treatment. We tell you this up front so there are no surprises. You leave with a clear picture of your options and a written estimate, and you are never required to decide on the day. For more detail, read what happens at a dental implant consultation.
Cost and payment
The cost of implant treatment depends on how many teeth are being replaced, whether you need extractions or a bone graft first, and the type of restoration. We give you a written estimate after your consultation, so you know what to expect before you decide.
- Membership plan. If you do not have dental insurance, ask about our in-house membership plan. Ask our front desk for the current benefits and how they apply to implant care.
- Insurance. Many dental plans cover only part of implant treatment, and some do not cover it at all. If you have insurance, we will verify benefits and give you an estimate of what your plan may pay. An estimate is not a guarantee of coverage or payment.
- Questions about cost. See our honest look at whether implants are worth the cost.
Healing and timeline
Healing is different for every patient. In general, there is a healing period after the implant is placed while the bone and implant bond, followed by a final crown, bridge or denture. Many patients can expect roughly 3 to 6 months from implant placement to the final restoration. Some cases take less time and some take longer.
Read our full guide, dental implant healing time: what to expect from placement to crown. Dr. Yu will give you a timeline for your own case.

Dental implant FAQ
Am I a candidate for dental implants?
Many adults who are missing teeth may be candidates if they have healthy gums and enough bone. Some people need gum treatment or a bone graft first. Only an exam and 3D scan can tell.
Does getting an implant hurt?
The area is numbed with local anesthesia, and many patients tell us the procedure itself was more comfortable than they expected. Some soreness afterward is common and usually manageable. Tell us if you feel nervous and we will go step by step.
How long do dental implants last?
With good home care and regular check-ups, many implants last for years, but how long an individual implant may last depends on your health and home care. See how long dental implants last.
What if I do not have enough bone?
A bone graft may help in some cases, and in others a different treatment may suit you better. Your 3D scan helps Dr. Yu decide. Learn more about bone grafting before an implant.
How much is the consultation, and what does the insurance estimate mean?
The implant consultation with CBCT is $400 and is not credited toward treatment. If you have insurance, we will verify benefits and give you an estimate. It is an estimate only, not a guarantee.
