A missing tooth is more than a cosmetic concern. Over time, the gap left by a missing tooth causes the surrounding teeth to shift, the jawbone to deteriorate, and bite function to change in ways that affect your overall oral health. Dental implants are the only tooth replacement option that addresses all of these issues — by replacing not just the visible tooth, but the root beneath it. At Revive Dentistry, Dr. Khezri offers comprehensive implant care to patients throughout Orange City, DeBary, DeLand, Deltona, and the surrounding West Volusia County area.
Not all dentists who place implants have the same level of training — and the difference matters. Dr. Khezri is actively pursuing Mastership credentials through the Academy of Implant Prosthetics, a multi-stage designation that progresses through membership, pre-fellowship, fellowship, and master levels before reaching diplomat status. This rigorous credentialing process requires extensive hours of training, case completion, and examination — placing Dr. Khezri among the most thoroughly trained implant providers in the West Volusia County region.
Dental implant treatment at Revive Dentistry begins with a comprehensive consultation and evaluation using digital imaging and CT scanning to assess your bone volume, anatomy, and implant site. Dr. Khezri walks every implant patient through the full process — what each phase involves, what to expect during healing, and exactly what your final restoration will look like. Nothing moves forward until you're fully informed and ready. For patients who have visited corporate chains and received confusing or pressure-driven treatment plans, this experience is often a stark and welcome contrast.
A single tooth implant consists of three components: a titanium post that integrates with the jawbone, an abutment that connects the post to the visible restoration, and a crown that is custom-crafted to match the surrounding teeth in size, shape, and color. Together, these components function and look like a natural tooth — with no impact on adjacent teeth and no risk of slippage.
Single tooth implants are typically recommended when a tooth has been extracted, has failed, or is missing due to injury or congenital absence. Dr. Khezri evaluates bone density and overall oral health before recommending implant placement, and uses CT imaging to plan the precise position and angle of each implant for optimal long-term outcomes.
For patients missing multiple adjacent teeth, implant-supported bridges offer a stable, permanent solution that eliminates the need for removable appliances. For patients who have lost most or all of their teeth, full arch implant restorations — including implant-supported overdentures and fixed full arch bridges — can restore complete function and a natural-looking smile in a way that traditional dentures simply cannot replicate.
Many patients underestimate the consequences of a missing tooth beyond the visible gap. When a tooth root is no longer present, the jawbone in that area begins to resorb — a process that can significantly change facial structure over time and complicate future implant placement if left too long. Adjacent teeth drift toward the open space, creating bite problems, crowding, and increased decay risk. The longer a tooth is missing, the more complex and costly the solution becomes.
In a market with multiple implant providers, what makes Revive Dentistry different comes down to three things: the caliber of Dr. Khezri's training, the diagnostic technology available in our office, and the philosophy that drives every treatment decision. We are a fee-for-service practice — which means implant recommendations are never influenced by insurance reimbursement schedules or volume incentives. Every implant case is evaluated individually, planned carefully, and executed with the precision and patience that produces results built to last.
Not sure what to expect? These are the most common questions our patients ask — and honest answers from our team to help you feel more comfortable, informed, and ready for your visit. Whether it’s your first check-up in years or you’re just curious about how things work, we’ve got you covered.
