Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants are replacements for your tooth’s natural root, and can act as an anchor for dental crowns and other dental prosthetics. After discussing options with one of our dentists, a tooth implant may be the best option to solve a variety of dental issues you may be facing. And because our dentists will handle your oral care from the time of diagnosis until the completion of your treatment, you can trust that you are receiving the best recommendations and care from start to finish.
Benefits of dental implants include:
- Improved Appearance
- Increased Bite Function
- Easier to Talk
- Durability
- Natural Look
- Improved Self-Esteem
Dental Implant Procedure
A tooth implant is a small titanium post inserted into the jaw bone where teeth are missing. Over time the bone and titanium bond together, functioning like a tooth root and establishing a secure foundation for artificial replacement teeth. After the implant has successfully fused with the jaw bone, the tooth implant is considered healed. A lifelike porcelain crown is then placed on top of the implant, serving as a “new” tooth. The entire process typically takes around 6-8 months.
Because implant dentistry is something we feel is important to our patients with missing teeth, we offer several specialized implant dentistry procedures that can streamline the dental implants treatment. We offer implant supported dentures, including same day dentures, an implant dentistry marvel as it gives us the opportunity to give you teeth in a day! Same day dentures are able to place the dental implants and restore them with dental crowns in one day!
We also use the CEREC system to give you beautiful, fully functioning dental crowns in a day! Using CEREC software and equipment, we are able to create high quality dental crowns while you wait.
The other bonus about getting implant dentistry procedures at Cary Family Dental is we do all the steps of the procedure in our comfortable office. Get to know our awesome team because we are here for you every step of the way. We are happy to offer you the familiarity of having your treatments done all in place.
Common Uses of Dental Implants
- Replacement of Individual Teeth | The doctor gently places the tooth implant where your natural tooth root would be, creating a sturdy foundation that can then support a beautiful dental crown to fill in the gap in your smile.
- Replace Multiple Teeth | If you happen to have several missing teeth or need extensive restorative dental care, we may recommend multiple dental implants and rebuild your smile with several dental crowns.
- Implant Supported Dentures | We also offer dental implant supported dentures – a stable, natural looking solution where dentures are secured to the jaw with the help of dental implants. Tooth implant supported dentures offer major benefits, including less worry about the maintenance and inconvenience of traditional dentures. You can now eat what you like and your dentures will always be fixed in place.

What Our Patients Are Saying!

The results are amazing, and my front teeth look better than I ever imagined! He’s so caring, and I genuinely feel well taken care of every time I’m there. I’m so glad we found him when we moved to Cary. If you want a dentist with exceptional skill and care, Dr. Wooten is the absolute best!
The clinic itself is spotless, and the entire staff is friendly and professional. I actually had my tooth removed three days ago, but I started having some pain this morning. I called the clinic at 8:00 AM, and they were kind enough to take me in at 8:30 AM. I was seen again by Dr. Madden, who quickly evaluated my problem, cleaned the infected area and prescribed antibiotics. Everything went so smoothly, and I truly appreciate how caring and responsive they were.
Overall, an excellent experience — clean office, friendly staff, and outstanding care. Highly recommend!
If you're looking for the perfect dentist, then look no further. Kindness and care is at the forefront of everything they do and it really shows.
The atmosphere was superb and very friendly walking in.
Ana the dental hygienist and Blanca were EXTREMELY informative throughout every step. Ana was so accommodating through everything and was really involved with what you wanted from the visit and moving forward with oral care!
Each step of the way she would go over everything and explain everything from the up most thoroughness. She was super kind and made the atmosphere very uplifting.
The doc/dentist that came in was super respectful and friendly. He also was very informative and showed a lot of trust in his dental hygienist which I believe she is very knowledgeable in the field!
Over all great first time, they got me set up with a care plan that will hopefully help me get back on track!!
Thank you and would recommend to everyone!!
Great place. They were super gentle and fast. Ana is a star hygienist. Best dentist i have been to in a very long time
Beware! They are known to DECEIVE people into thinking they accept dental insurance. Paid way too much for my dental cleaning and they led me to believe I wouldn’t have to pay anything since cleanings are fully covered by my insurance.
Dr. W is amazing as well. He is genuine, thorough, and a good human.
The staff are friendly, timely, and on point. The office is modern, clean, and in a great location.
This practice blew me away so much that I have already referred them to clients and friends.
So happy that I found them. I would give them 10 stars if I could.

I’m absolutely appalled by the treatment my two children, ages 16 and 14, received at Cary Family Dentistry. My husband and I have been long-time patients, so we trusted them for our children's first non-pediatric dental appointments. Unfortunately, this experience has made us lose all trust in this practice.
Due to my children’s busy school and sports schedules, we scheduled their appointments on a day when my husband and I were in the office, but they were out of school. The office is just minutes from our home, and my 16-year-old son drove them both to their appointments. From the moment they arrived, the staff acted shocked that my daughter was 14 years old and proceeded to treat her with extreme disrespect.
The real issue came when the staff began loudly discussing, right outside my daughter’s room, how “irresponsible” it was for us not to attend her appointment. They made unnecessary and hurtful comments about her teeth, wrongly assuming she had just recently had a cleaning, saying things like “why is she even here?” and that the hygienist didn’t want to “waste her time.” These remarks were not only inaccurate but incredibly inappropriate. They repeatedly questioned why she was there at all, adding to the distress.
My daughter, who was already anxious about her first adult dental visit, called me in tears after the appointment, heartbroken by the way they had spoken about her and our family. The level of unprofessionalism is absolutely shocking, and no patient—especially a minor—should ever be made to feel so belittled and embarrassed.
This is NOT a family-friendly practice, and I am devastated that my children’s first experience with an adult dentist was such a nightmare. We will be finding a new dentist who actually cares about and respects their patients. If you value professionalism, kindness, and a welcoming environment, I highly recommend looking elsewhere.
The team is not only incredibly pleasant but also highly knowledgeable. They took the time to explain every step of the process, which helped alleviate my nerves and made me feel confident in my decision to choose them as my new dentist. Their professionalism and genuine care for their patients truly shine through. I appreciated how the staff took the time to listen to my concerns and answer all of my questions thoroughly.
Overall, my experience at Cary Family Dental exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Cary Family Dental to anyone looking for a compassionate and skilled dental team.
Kelly is a wonderful dental hygienist too!!! Dr. Wooten is fantastic too!!! They’re all fantastic!!!
So customer buys at extra cost a warranty dentist gets paid no impact to them. I can see there business model evolving. No accountability.
I can do better and I did.
This is the response to the owners response.
The response was canned and as expected. If you dedicated to excellence I would say you are in need of a quality control audit bigly. Save your $10 words and canned fairytale response as the actions do not meet the Truth.
Leigh 🙂
Came out the dentist, cheeeesing 😁!!!
100% Highly recommend!!!
My most recent experience with hygienist Liz confirmed all my previous experiences. This is a great place and I highly recommend it.
I have requested getting numbed for my dental cleanings for a number of years because my teeth are so sensitive. However, Fanta is so gentle and thorough in cleaning my teeth that I no longer request anesthesia.
I also had a veneer fracture and was dreading getting it replaced. Dr. Kristin Madden made me feel comfortable as soon as she came into the room with her gentle touch, kindness and infinite patience. The new veneer was even more beautiful than my old one. Dr. Madden meticulously matched my tooth color and covered more of the tetracycline staining of my tooth so that my smile is as amazing as Dr. Madden. I trust her to do anything in my my mouth.
I would highly recommend Cary Family Dental to anyone looking for a practice who is attentive, provides great service, with exceptional customer service from calling to schedule an appointment, follow-up, to leaving their office.
I had missed my last dental appointment at my old practice because they had very limited hygienists, so I was behind on my current cleaning. I feel so much better since my cleaning today, and very happy that I chose Cary Family Dental my dental care 🦷 🤩🤩🤩
Karen is my hygienist and she makes my visits very welcoming. Everyone here is very pleasant.
Keep smiling.
