Who We Are & Frequently Asked Questions

Patient reviews of Pacific Dental & Implant Solutions frequently highlight the practice’s expertise in dental implants, honest treatment recommendations, and personalized care. 

Many patients in Honolulu mention Dr. Asam’s advanced Prosthodontist training, clear communication, and ability to restore confidence with permanent teeth replacement. 

Our reviews also emphasize the friendly staff, smooth insurance coordination, and the convenience of completing implant treatment in one office without referrals to multiple specialists.

Pacific Dental & Implant Solutions provides a wide range of advanced dental implant procedures and dental prosthetic solutions in Honolulu to replace missing and failing teeth, restore function, and rebuild confident smiles.

Our dental implant and tooth replacement services include:

• Single dental implants to replace individual missing teeth
• Implant bridgework to restore multiple missing teeth in a row
• Full mouth dental Implants for complete smile reconstruction
• All-on-4 dental Implants and All-on-X dental implants for full-arch, fixed teeth replacement
• Implant over-dentures for improved stability compared to traditional dentures
• Dental prosthetics, including fixed, hybrid, and removable implant-supported teeth

In addition to implant solutions, we also provide:

• Full Dentures and Partial Dentures
• Dental Bridgework and Dental Crowns
• Full Mouth Rehabilitation for patients with complex or advanced dental conditions

What makes this Honolulu practice unique is that Dr. Jmi Lilinoe Bassett Asam has completed an American Dental Association (ADA)-recognized specialty in Prosthodontics, which focuses specifically on all options for replacing missing and failing teeth.

As a specialty prosthodontic practice, Pacific Dental & Implant Solutions is uniquely qualified to design and deliver custom treatment plans using the full spectrum of dental implants, fixed restorations, hybrid prosthetics, and removable solutions, ensuring the most ideal outcome for function, comfort, aesthetics, and long-term oral health.

All-on-4 dental implant procedures replace an entire arch of missing teeth using four strategically placed dental implants to support a fixed set of replacement teeth. 

This treatment provides a permanent alternative to removable dentures and restores full chewing function and appearance. It allows patients to regain stable, natural-looking teeth with fewer implants than traditional full mouth implant methods.

In addition to dental implants, Pacific Dental & Implant Solutions provides comprehensive prosthodontic and restorative dentistry services in Honolulu. These include dental crowns, implant crowns, dental bridges, dentures, cosmetic dentistry, and full mouth reconstruction. 

We also treat patients with failing dental work, broken teeth, or multiple missing teeth. We focus on restoring long-term oral health, function, and aesthetics using advanced prosthodontic treatment planning.

The cost of dental implants and other tooth replacement options varies depending on your specific dental condition, goals, and the type of restoration selected. At Pacific Dental & Implant Solutions, we offer the full range of modern tooth replacement solutions, including:

• Single dental implants
• Full-arch dental implants
• Implant-supported bridges
• Implant-supported dentures
• Traditional removable dentures

Because prosthodontics is the dental specialty focused on restoring and replacing teeth, Dr. Asam can customize treatment to balance long-term function, aesthetics, and budget. 

During your free consultation, you’ll receive a clear, personalized treatment plan and cost breakdown so you understand all your options.

Yes. Pacific Dental & Implant Solutions provides free dental implant consultations in Honolulu, with no cost to you and no billing to your insurance.

Your consultation includes:

• A comprehensive evaluation
• Review of missing or failing teeth
• Discussion of dental implant options
• Personalized treatment recommendations
• Cost estimates and insurance review

We believe every patient deserves to understand their options clearly before making decisions about replacing missing teeth.

Many dental insurance plans in Hawaii help cover portions of dental implant procedures and tooth replacement treatments, although coverage varies by provider and plan.

Most plans contribute toward:

• Implant restorations (crowns, bridges, dentures)
• Tooth extractions
• Diagnostic imaging and exams

Insurance typically pays a percentage of treatment costs up to your annual maximum. Any remaining balance beyond your plan’s limit would be your responsibility.

Our team at PDIS will help verify your benefits, explain your coverage, and help you maximize your insurance for dental implants whenever possible.

At PDIS, we accept many dental insurance plans commonly used in Hawaii, including Hawaii Dental Service (HDS), HMSA, and other PPO dental insurance providers. 

Insurance may cover portions of implant restorations, crowns, or related procedures depending on the plan. 

Our office provides free insurance verification and submits claims on behalf of patients to help maximize available benefits and reduce out-of-pocket costs.

A prosthodontist is a dental specialist with an additional three years of advanced full-time training beyond dental school, focused exclusively on complex tooth replacement, dental implants, and full-mouth reconstruction.

Dr. Jmi Asam’s prosthodontic specialty training allows her to:

• Plan dental implant treatment from both the surgical and final restoration perspective
• Design implants for optimal function, comfort, and appearance
• Restore multiple missing or failing teeth with long-term success
• Manage complex implant and full-mouth cases in one location

While general dentists may place or restore implants, they often rely on multiple outside specialists. As a prosthodontist, Dr. Asam oversees the entire process, ensuring the final teeth are placed in the ideal position for both health and aesthetics. 

This comprehensive approach is especially important for patients needing:

• Full mouth dental implants
• Multiple implants
• Implant-supported dentures
• Complex restorative treatment

Additionally, because Pacific Dental & Implant Solutions participates with major Hawaii insurance providers like HDS and HMSA, treatment fees are often comparable to – and sometimes more cost-effective than – general dental offices, while providing a higher level of specialty care.

Patients can schedule an appointment at Pacific Dental & Implant Solutions by calling our Honolulu office directly or submitting an appointment request through our website. 

Our practice offers free initial implant consultations, where Dr. Asam evaluates your dental condition, reviews treatment options, and explains implant costs and insurance coverage. Our team also provides insurance verification to help patients understand their benefits before starting treatment.
