Implant Dentistry for Florence and the Pee Dee Region

A dental implant is a titanium post placed into the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth. Once it fuses with the bone, it supports a crown, bridge or denture that stays put. That fusion is what separates an implant from every other tooth replacement option, and it's why implants are the only solution that also preserves the jawbone underneath.

Pee Dee Implant Center focuses on implant dentistry specifically rather than treating it as one service among dozens. That means the full range: a single tooth implant for one gap, an implant-supported bridge for a few teeth in a row, All-on-4 for an entire arch, and the site preparation work like bone grafting and sinus lifts that makes those cases possible in the first place.

  • Single missing tooth, multiple teeth, or a full arch
  • All-on-4 and full-arch fixed solutions
  • Implant-supported and snap-in dentures
  • Bone grafting and sinus lift site preparation
  • Same-day and immediate-load implant options

Why Choose Us

Pee Dee Implant Center places implants in Florence, South Carolina and nothing else. That focus shows up in the cases we take on and the ones we talk patients out of.

The Full Range Under One Roof

Single tooth implants, implant-supported bridges, All-on-4, implant dentures, mini implants, bone grafting and sinus lifts. One practice handles every stage, so nobody gets referred out mid-treatment and nobody proposes the only procedure they happen to offer.

Itemized Written Quotes

The titanium post, the abutment, the crown and any grafting are quoted as separate line items, matched to their CDT codes. A single implant is coded D6010 for surgical placement, D6057 for the abutment and D6058 for the crown. Lump-sum quotes hide which of those three you are actually paying for.

Cone Beam CT on Every Case

A CBCT scan precedes every surgical plan, not a flat 2D panoramic X-ray. Inferior alveolar nerve position and sinus floor height become measurements in millimetres rather than estimates. Getting them wrong is how nerve injuries and sinus perforations happen.

Cases Other Practices Turn Away

Patients told they lack the bone for implants usually have options nobody mentioned. Angled All-on-4 placement uses the anterior maxilla where bone persists, mini implants need 3mm of ridge width instead of 6mm, and grafting rebuilds the rest.

Outside Work Assessed and Repaired

We assess and treat implants placed by other providers, including work done out of state or in Mexico and Costa Rica. A failing implant nobody will look at turns a fixable problem into bone loss.

Built Around a Regional Catchment

Patients drive in from Darlington, Hartsville, Lake City, Marion and Mullins, most of them along US-52 and SC-327. Appointments are consolidated where it is clinically sensible instead of asking for six separate trips down I-95.

Treatments we provide

Implant Treatments in Florence, SC

Single Tooth Dental Implants

One titanium post, one abutment, one crown, replacing a single missing tooth without touching the teeth either side of it.

All-on-4 Dental Implants

A fixed full arch of teeth carried on four implants, with the back two angled up to 45 degrees to reach the bone you still have.

Implant Supported Dentures

Denture implants that clip onto two to four titanium posts, holding firm while eating and unclipping for cleaning. Also called snap-in dentures or overdentures.

Full Mouth Dental Implants

Replacing every tooth in one or both jaws on implants, whether that ends up fixed, removable, four implants or eight.

Same Day Dental Implants

Implants placed and a temporary tooth or arch fitted at the same appointment, so you never leave with a gap.

Mini Dental Implants

Narrow-diameter implants under 3mm that anchor in ridges too thin for a standard implant, at roughly half the cost.

Your treatment path

From first consultation to final tooth

1

Consultation and 3D Imaging

A cone beam CT scan measures bone height and width at the exact implant site and maps the inferior alveolar nerve and maxillary sinus. You leave with a written treatment plan and an itemized cost breakdown the same day.

2

Extraction and Site Preparation

A failing tooth comes out and, where bone volume falls short, grafting happens at this stage. Socket preservation grafting adds three to four months before placement. This step is the single biggest variable in how long a case runs.

3

Implant Placement

A channel is prepared in the bone to within tenths of a millimetre and the titanium post is threaded in. A single implant takes one to two hours under local anaesthetic, with IV sedation available.

4

Osseointegration

Bone cells grow onto the implant surface and lock it in place. This takes three to four months in the lower jaw and four to six months in the upper jaw, where bone is less dense. You wear a temporary tooth throughout.

5

Final Restoration

The abutment is attached and a digital scan taken. Your crown, bridge or denture is fabricated in zirconia or porcelain to match the shade and contour of the teeth beside it, then fitted and adjusted.

Dental Implants in Florence, SC — Questions Patients Ask

Still deciding? We're happy to talk it through before you book anything.

+1 (854) 244-5783
+ How much do dental implants cost in Florence, SC?
A single dental implant with the crown costs $3,000 to $5,000. Implant-supported dentures cost $6,000 to $15,000 per arch. All-on-4 full-arch treatment costs $20,000 to $30,000 per arch. Bone grafting adds $400 to $1,200 and a sinus lift $1,500 to $2,800. You get an itemized written quote after the CBCT scan.
+ What is the cheapest way to replace missing teeth with implants?
Mini dental implants cost $1,500 to $2,500 each, roughly half a standard implant. For a full lower arch, a two-implant snap-in denture costs $6,000 to $10,000, against $20,000 to $30,000 for fixed All-on-4. Cost per tooth drops sharply as you replace more teeth: a three-unit implant bridge uses two implants instead of three.
+ Can I get same-day dentures in Florence, SC?
Yes. Immediate-load implant dentures place the implants and fit a fixed temporary arch in one appointment, usually five to six hours. The permanent arch is fitted four to six months later once the implants integrate. Same-day treatment requires enough bone for 35 Ncm of insertion torque at placement, which the CBCT scan confirms beforehand.
+ What are denture implants and how are they different from regular dentures?
Denture implants, also called implant dentures, overdentures or snap-in dentures, are dentures anchored to two to four titanium implants instead of resting on gum tissue. They deliver roughly 70 to 80 percent of natural chewing force against 20 to 25 percent for a conventional denture, and they stop the bone loss that makes conventional dentures loosen every few years.
+ Can I get dental implants with bad credit?
Yes. CareCredit approves at credit scores around 620, and implant-specific lenders including Proceed Finance and Lending Club Patient Solutions approve below that with a larger deposit. In-house payment plans split treatment into stages so you pay for placement and restoration months apart. Staged treatment is itself a financing strategy.
+ How long does the whole process take?
A single implant case runs four to eight months from placement to final crown. With bone grafting first, nine to twelve months. Same-day and All-on-4 give you teeth on the day of surgery, though the permanent restoration still waits three to six months for osseointegration.
+ What if I've been told I don't have enough bone?
Bone grafting and sinus lifts rebuild the site, and All-on-4 uses implants angled up to 45 degrees to reach the bone that remains. Mini implants need about 3mm of ridge width against the 6mm a standard implant needs. Most patients turned away elsewhere are candidates for one of these. A CBCT scan settles it in one appointment.
+ What are the side effects and risks of dental implants?
Swelling and soreness peak on day two or three and settle within a week. The real risks are peri-implantitis, which affects 10 to 20 percent of implants over ten years, inferior alveolar nerve injury in lower placements, and sinus perforation in upper ones. Implant survival at ten years is 90 to 95 percent. Smoking roughly doubles the failure rate.
+ Is implant surgery painful?
Placement is done under local anaesthetic with IV sedation available. Most patients report less discomfort than the extraction that preceded it. Over-the-counter ibuprofen handles the first 48 hours for the majority of single-implant cases.
+ Does dental insurance cover dental implants?
Most plans cover a portion, usually the crown under code D6058 rather than the surgical placement under D6010. Annual maximums of $1,000 to $2,000 cap what you actually receive, so a $4,000 implant leaves $2,000 or more out of pocket. Some plans exclude implants outright and pay a denture alternative benefit instead. We read your policy before you commit.
+ Do you treat patients from outside Florence?
Yes. Patients travel in from Darlington, Hartsville, Lake City, Marion, Mullins, Timmonsville and Johnsonville. Appointment schedules are planned around the drive, consolidating stages where it is clinically sensible.
