What is a dental implant?
A dental implant is one of the excellent options our practice offers to replace missing teeth and restore your smile. Dental implants are small posts, made of biocompatible metal, that are surgically inserted in the gums and jawbone to replace the missing tooth root. The jawbone fuses with the dental implant in a process called osseointegration to form a strong, stable foundation. Our dentists then place an implant restoration on top of the post to replace the crown of the missing tooth and to restore your smile’s beauty and function. Depending on which teeth are missing, your custom-crafted dental implant restoration may be a dental crown, a dental bridge, a partial denture, or a full denture.
Do I need a dental implant?
Our dentists may recommend a dental implant if you are missing one tooth or multiple teeth. Implants are very secure and stable, and with proper care, they can last a lifetime. Because the implant replaces both the root and crown of the missing tooth, it is very natural looking and feeling.
