Dental Implants in Myrtle Beach, SC
Your smile, our legacy
Your Most Confident, Functional Smile Starts Here
Dental implants in Myrtle Beach may be a good option if missing or failing teeth are making it harder to eat comfortably, speak clearly, or feel confident in your smile.
You may qualify for dental implants if you:
- Are missing one tooth, several teeth, or a full arch of teeth
- Have broken, severely damaged, or failing teeth that cannot be predictably restored
- Want a more secure alternative to removable dentures or bridges
- Have enough healthy jawbone to support implants or are eligible for bone grafting
- Have healthy gums or are willing to address gum disease before treatment
- Are in generally good health and able to heal properly after implant placement
- Do not smoke or are prepared to stop during the healing process
- Want a long-term solution designed to improve both function and appearance
At Legacy Prosthodontics, we carefully evaluate your teeth, gums, bite, jawbone, medical history, and treatment goals before recommending dental implants.
Our second-generation, family-owned dental practice brings more than 40 years of experience to your care, while our on-site customization capabilities allow us to maintain greater control over the fit, comfort, and appearance of your new smile.

Find the Right Dental Implant for Your Smile
Every smile requires a different solution, which is why we offer several types of dental implants for patients throughout Myrtle Beach, Murrells Inlet, Conway, Garden City, and nearby Grand Strand communities.
Same-Day Dental Implants
We offer same-day dental implants for patients seeking a faster path to a functional smile. You’ll leave our office with a secure, natural-looking tooth replacement the very same day.
Full Arch Dental Implants
Full arch dental implants replace an entire upper or lower row of teeth using just a few strategically placed implants. This solution is perfect for patients looking for a long-lasting alternative to traditional dentures.
Full Mouth Dental Implants
Full mouth dental implants restore every tooth in your smile, providing the closest experience to natural teeth. If you struggle with extensive tooth loss, a full restoration can restore your smile and dental function.
Mini Dental Implants
Mini dental implants are smaller in size and less invasive, making them ideal for patients with lower bone density or those who prefer a quicker recovery. They stabilize dentures or replace small teeth with minimal downtime.
All-On-4 & All-On-6 Dental Implants
All-On-4 and All-On-6 implants provide full-arch restorations using fewer implants than traditional methods. They’re a great choice for patients who want strong, natural-looking teeth with fewer surgical visits and faster results.

Your prosthodontist will examine your teeth, gums, bite, and jawbone before explaining which treatment can provide the right balance of stability, comfort, appearance, and long-term function.
Insurance & Financing Information
Dental implant coverage varies by insurance plan, the reason for treatment, and the procedures included in your care. Our team can review your benefits, explain any estimated out-of-pocket costs, and help you understand which portions of treatment may be eligible for coverage.
Because implants are an investment in your long-term oral health, Legacy Prosthodontics also offers financing options that can help divide the cost into more manageable payments. Before treatment begins, you will receive a clear estimate based on your personalized implant plan.
How Much Do Dental Implants Cost?
The cost of dental implants can vary based on your needs and your specific treatment plan. Your restoration cost may be influenced by…
- Number of implants needed
- Type of dental implant or restoration (single, full arch, or full mouth)
- Use of All-On-4 or All-On-6 implants
- Whether extractions or bone grafting are required
- Materials used for the implant posts and restorations
- Customization at our in-house lab
- Sedation or anesthesia for comfort during the procedure
During your consultation, we’ll provide you with an upfront quote, so you’ll know exactly what to expect.
What To Expect Before, During and After The Procedure
Your treatment begins with a detailed evaluation of your teeth, gums, bite, jawbone, and overall health. We will review your options, explain the expected timeline, and create a personalized plan for your smile.
- Before Treatment: We use imaging and a thorough examination to plan implant placement and determine whether you need any preparatory procedures.
- During Treatment: Your dental implants are carefully placed in the jawbone, and a temporary restoration may be provided depending on your treatment plan.
- After Treatment: As your implants heal and bond with the jawbone, we monitor your progress before attaching your customized final teeth.
Your exact timeline will depend on the number of implants placed, your bone health, and how your body heals. Legacy Prosthodontics will guide you through every stage and make adjustments to support a comfortable, functional result.

Everything You Want to Know About Dental Implants
Are dental implants permanent?
Dental implants are a long-term solution, fusing securely with your jawbone to support replacement teeth. However, their lifespan depends on how well you care for them: proper oral hygiene and regular dental visits can keep them strong and healthy for years to come.
How long does it take to recover after getting dental implants?
Healing after implants typically takes a few days to a week, and most patients return to normal activities quickly. Full integration of the implant with the jawbone can take several months, depending on your individual case.
Who is the ideal candidate for dental implants?
Patients in good overall health with healthy gums and enough jawbone density are typically great candidates. Even if you’ve experienced bone loss, implants may be possible with advanced grafting. We’ll assess your smile during your consultation to determine if implants may be right for you.
Are there any specific aftercare instructions?
To care for your implants, brush and floss daily and schedule regular dental checkups. Avoid smoking, maintain proper oral hygiene, and follow your dentist’s guidance to keep your implants durable for years.
