Implant Dentistry
Implants offer the comfort, appearance, and function of natural teeth.
Dental implants are rapidly changing the way people live and are one of the most important advances in modern dentistry. They offer a patient, who is missing one, several, or all of their teeth, an excellent alternative to partials or complete dentures. Implants offer the comfort, appearance, and function of natural teeth.
What are dental implants?
A dental implant is a small titanium cylinder that is surgically placed into the
upper or lower jawbone and serves as a root substitute for a natural tooth. During a
4-6 month healing period the bone will fuse to the implant and anchor it in the mouth.
These anchors provide a strong foundation for replacing single or multiple teeth.
For over 30 years implants have resulted in beautiful smiles for patients. They
result in a more natural type of tooth replacement that can restore your previous
chewing ability, improve appearance, and renew self-confidence.
