What Is a Dental Implant?
A dental implant is a small post, typically titanium, that is inserted into the jaw where it takes on the role of a tooth root. Dr. Brian K. Bell at Bell Dental in Lake Jackson, TX, uses advanced scanning and imaging technology for long-lasting results. Once it has been surgically placed, your own body secures the dental implant in place naturally by growing bone around it. The implant is then topped with an abutment, or connector piece, so it can support a restoration.
Dental implants can support an individual crown to replace a single tooth, a bridge, or dentures. After our lifelike restorations are secured to the implant, they function like natural teeth. Denture wearers are especially thankful that they won't have to worry about their teeth slipping and embarrassing them. For patients, it's like having their natural teeth back again.
To replace a missing tooth, a titanium dental implant is placed in the jaw and topped with a connector piece called an abutment. Once the dental implant has fused with the jawbone, a natural-looking dental crown is then attached to create a complete tooth, root to crown. Implant-supported crowns are the most trusted and complete tooth replacement solution in dentistry.
Why Choose Us?
Expertise in Advanced Dentistry
Implant dentistry is a highly technique-sensitive procedure that requires advanced training. Dr. Bell, a life-long learner, has completed post-graduate studies at the prestigious Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies (LVI Global), an international institute that draws dentists from around the world.
Technology for Optimum Results
Precise implant placement is essential for long-lasting results and requires the use of advanced technology to identify jawbone structures and assess bone density. Dr. Bell uses sophisticated 3D cone beam imaging technology to pinpoint the best location for implants. At the same time, he will identify the proper angle and depth for your implant.
Compassionate Care
Tooth loss carries a lot of emotional baggage for patients. We show them that no matter how damaged their smile is, we have techniques that can rebuild it and give them the freedom to smile confidently. Our team works hard to establish a relationship with patients so they feel comfortable discussing their dental issues and mapping out a solution.
Your Comfort Is Our Priority
Dental implants require oral surgery, which we know concerns some people. We can assure you that our advanced techniques minimize discomfort. However, we understand that everyone perceives pain differently. If you are anxious or have difficulty sitting for long periods, Bell Dental in Lake Jackson, TX, offers sedation options for maximum comfort.
You Can Get Started Today Message Our Office
Dr. Bell has more than 20 years of experience and, in addition to his advanced training at LVI Global, belongs to prestigious organizations that focus on implant techniques, such as the International Congress of Oral Implantologists. The dentists at Bell Dental have earned a reputation for superior restorative dentistry in Lake Jackson, TX, and throughout Brazoria County.
Working with an expert is important when considering an implant. Dr. Bell will carefully assess your mouth and go over your health to ensure implants are the right choice for you. Some patients lack the necessary bone density to support an implant. Dr. Bell can usually overcome that obstacle by using advanced implant techniques or performing a bone graft to strengthen your jaw.

This was my first procedure done at Bell Dental and Dr Crockett and the attending staff were kind, compassionate and caring. I have to use sedation dentistry due to dental trauma as a youth and today’s experience was above my expectations. It was also nice to have a check up call a few hours after I was home. I can’t say that I look forward to my upcoming appointments, but Incan say that I do not dread them ~ Kathy L.

All-on-4 Dental Implants for a Secure, Stunning Smile
People who have been missing teeth for a while often discover that bone loss makes implant-supported dentures out of the question. But Dr. Bell at Bell Dental in Lake Jackson, TX, has a potential solution–All-on-4® dental implants. This advanced method uses strategically placed implants to make the most of the bone in your jaw.
No Preparatory Steps
Patients who lack bone mass are often told they will need a bone graft to qualify for dental implants, a procedure that adds time and money to their goal. With All-on-4 implants, Dr. Bell can often eliminate this extra step entirely.
Just 4 Implants
A typical fixed denture requires six to eight dental implants and abutments. The All-on-4 method uses just four implants, which are placed at strategic angles that maximize support for the attached denture.
Less Invasive
Because just four implants are needed with the All-on-4 method, the procedure is less invasive than traditional dentures, which require six or more implants to be inserted into the jawbone.

If your dentist gives you pain, come to my dentist, Dr Brian Bell, for NO PAIN. Seriously I just had a root canal - and those shots were so smooth - I could not believe how easy and pain-free they were for me. Bottom line is this: you don't have to put up with a dentist who cannot deliver when there are other options like Brian Bell. He really is the best.
