“Implants are like regrowing your tooth.” That is how Dr. Jared Shore describes them, and it captures something that no other tooth replacement option can claim. A dental implant is anchored directly below the gum into the bone, fuses with the surrounding bone over time, and functions, looks, and feels like a natural tooth.
Dr. Shore’s long term implant success is remarkable at over 99%. Dr. Shore accredits his success to working with great surgeons, giving the implants time to heal, using the best techniques laboratory technicians and his techniques.
Dr. Shore approaches every implant case with the same conservative philosophy that guides all of his care: thorough evaluation, honest recommendations, and a treatment plan built around what is genuinely right for the patient. Before recommending an implant, he will assess the condition of the surrounding teeth and gum tissue, evaluate available bone volume, and discuss all available replacement options with you, so that your decision is fully informed before any treatment begins.
Dental implants require a level of clinical precision and sound judgment that comes from experience; knowing not just how to place an implant, but when to place it, how to prepare the site, and how to manage the restoration for the long term. Dr. Shore has been delivering implant treatment at Central Park South for years, and his conservative philosophy means every case is handled with care from the first consultation through the final crown. Patients trust him with implants for the same reason they trust him with everything else: he tells them the truth and does the work right.
Dr. Shore uses digital X-rays and advanced diagnostic imaging to evaluate bone volume, tooth positioning, and surrounding structures before any implant treatment begins. Careful pre-treatment planning is what distinguishes a successful implant from a failed one, and it is a step Dr. Shore never skips. Over a 99% long-term success rate.
Dr. Shore has been treating Manhattan patients with a level of precision that only comes from decades of hands-on experience. Implant treatment is among the most technically demanding procedures in restorative dentistry, and the kind of outcome patients deserve is only possible when it is performed by a dentist who has seen enough cases to know exactly what each one requires.
Dental implants are one of the most significant investments a patient can make in their oral health, and one of the most rewarding. Dr. Shore’s patients who choose implants consistently describe the result as life-changing: eating, speaking, and smiling with the kind of confidence that a missing tooth quietly takes away.

Have questions about dental implants? Here are answers to some of the most common questions we hear from patients considering implant treatment.
Good candidates have sufficient jawbone volume, healthy gums, and no active gum disease. Dr. Shore will evaluate your specific situation and give you an honest assessment during your consultation.
The full implant process typically takes several months from placement to final crown, allowing time for the implant to fuse with the jawbone. Dr. Shore will provide a realistic timeline based on your case.
With proper care, dental implants can last decades or a lifetime. The crown may need replacement after 10 to 15 years, but the implant itself is designed as a permanent solution.
When a tooth is lost, the jawbone beneath it begins to deteriorate over time, a process called bone resorption. This can cause surrounding teeth to shift, alter your bite, and change the shape of your face. The longer a missing tooth goes unreplaced, the less bone may be available to support a future implant. Addressing tooth loss sooner rather than later gives you more options and leads to better long-term outcomes.
