WHAT ARE DENTAL IMPLANTS?
Restoring function back to your smile.
Dental implants have become the preferred standard of care when replacing missing, damaged, or deformed teeth. Soundview Dental Arts is Tacoma’s top choice for dental implants. We utilize the latest in guided implant technology.
Implants are titanium posts that screw into your jawbone to replace the root of your missing tooth. Implants can be used in the following ways:
- Replacement of one or more missing teeth
- Support of a bridge to replace multiple teeth
- Support of a non-removable full or partial denture
BENEFITS OF IMPLANTS
Implants vs Bridges – Who Wins?
You always have options for different kinds of treatment. We will, of course, present you with an ideal option, but we will do our best to find other more economical ways to help you achieve your goals. Here is how dental implants compare with dental bridges:
Bridges
- A bridge is difficult to keep clean
- A bridge requires aggressive tooth reduction of healthy teeth that are supporting the bridge
- An implant saves the adjacent teeth
Implants
- Implants preserve the bone level
- Implants allow you to floss and clean the area just like a natural tooth
- Implants have a success rate of 98%
Absolutely the best place for dental care. Most of us who grew up in the 70s have been traumatized by our dentist. They are all compassionate and understanding.

I’ve been going to this dental office for years and absolutely love it! The staff is so friendly and they always make an effort to get to know you and educate you on dental health. The waterfront view is an added bonus!
I consider myself sort of a dentist snob- I have high expectations of dental practices. I went to Soundview for a second opinion and I can't say enough positive things about my experience. All the staff were so nice and engaging- constantly checking in to make sure everything was ok. The dentist- spectacular. Explained everything in detail, and included me in my dental plan to address the concerns. Soundview Dental is amazing!
I was referred here by a friend several years ago. The dental work is a 10 out of 10. The best part is that they make you feel like family.
Friendly, efficient and professional staff and dentist (Dr. Whalen). Clean, welcoming environment - thorough cleaning and examination.
I enjoy going to the dentist here. Dr. Whalen is engaging and always stops in to say hi. My hygienist is top-notch and is always concerned for my dental health. Thank you to the front desk for the appointment reminders and courteous care.
The office staff is great. Professional and made me feel at ease and answered all my questions. Dr. Whalen and her staff are top-notch. I have recommended many people and they have all been pleased and the practice on all levels has exceeded their expectations.
Awesome place to get your dental work done, our family has been going here for about 15 years. We wouldn’t go anywhere else.
Well since day one they have made me feel comfortable and the service is beyond great. Front desk lady's thanks are always a joy. And to the staff thanks for the help and advice you guys are wonderful.
