The Foleck Center's Norfolk location continues addressing unprecedented patient demand for permanent tooth replacement solutions as nearly 3 million Americans now have dental implants and the U.S. market experiences 11.4 percent annual growth, reaching $1.52 billion in 2024.
The practice, led by nationally recognized implant specialist Dr. Adam Foleck, whose chapter "Implants in the Esthetic Zone" appears in the leading textbook Modern Implant Dentistry published by Quintessence in 2023, positions Hampton Roads residents with access to world-class implant care locally. Market projections indicate continued expansion, with the dental implant sector expected to reach $3.69 billion by 2032, according to Polaris Market Research.
"The dramatic growth in dental implant procedures reflects changing patient expectations and improved clinical outcomes through advanced technology," said Dr. Adam Foleck, Founder and Lead Implant Dentist at The Foleck Center. "Patients increasingly recognize that dental implants offer functional and esthetic advantages traditional options cannot match, from preserving jawbone structure to providing permanent, natural-looking tooth replacement that can last 25 years or more with proper care."
The Foleck Center Norfolk dental implants program leverages these advancements through state-of-the-art equipment and an on-site dental laboratory with a Certified Dental Technician, enabling expedited custom restorations. The practice offers comprehensive implant services, from initial consultation through final restoration, utilizing BIOLASE Waterlase laser technology for gentler procedures and enhanced healing.
The surge in demand stems from multiple factors, including an aging population seeking permanent solutions for tooth loss and technological advancements making procedures more accessible and predictable. Over 150 million Americans currently experience missing teeth, with 12.9 percent of all dental implant procedures performed on patients aged 65 to 74. The U.S. population aged 65 and older is projected to reach 82 million by 2050, further driving demand for permanent tooth replacement options.
Modern implant dentistry has achieved success rates between 95 and 98 percent, with titanium implants comprising 93 percent of all procedures. Advanced diagnostic tools, including Pearl AI technology and 3D imaging systems, enable precise treatment planning and guided surgery techniques that improve accuracy and patient outcomes. These technological improvements have expanded treatment options, from single tooth replacements to All-on-4 full arch restorations that minimize surgery and recovery time.
Dr. Foleck brings exceptional credentials to Norfolk dental implants patients, holding distinction as a Diplomate of the American Board of Oral Implantology, one of only thirteen professionals in North America to achieve this prestigious status in 2011. He also serves as an Honored Fellow of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry, the highest recognition in implant dentistry, and has lectured internationally on dental implants, grafting procedures, and CAD/CAM surgical integration since 2007.
The Foleck Center operates six locations throughout the Tidewater region, serving Norfolk, Virginia Beach, Hampton, Newport News, and Williamsburg. The practice provides comprehensive dental services beyond implant dentistry, including restorative, cosmetic, and general dentistry, emergency dental care, and sedation dentistry for anxious patients.
As dental implant technology continues advancing and patient awareness grows, The Foleck Center remains committed to providing Hampton Roads residents with access to world-class implant expertise and the latest treatment innovations locally.
