Dental implants are a great way to replace missing teeth and also provide a fixed solution to having removable partial or complete dentures. Implants provide excellent support and stability for these dental appliances.

Dental implants are artificial roots and teeth (usually titanium) that are surgically placed into the upper or lower jaw bone. The teeth attached to implants are very natural looking and often enhance or restore a patient’s smile!

Dental implants are very strong, stable, and durable. They last many years, and can be tightened if affected by normal wear and tear.


Reasons For Dental Implants:

Replace one or more missing teeth without affecting adjacent teeth.


Restore a patient’s confident smile.


Restore chewing, speech, and digestion.


Resolve joint pain or bite problems caused by teeth shifting into missing tooth space.


Restore or enhance facial tissues.


Support a bridge or denture, making them more secure and comfortable.


What Does Getting Dental Implants Involve?

X-rays and impressions (molds) are taken of the jaw and teeth to determine bone, gum tissue, and spacing available for an implant. While the area is numb, the implant will be placed into the bone and allowed to heal and integrate itself on to the bone for up to six months.

After a period of healing time, the artificial teeth are made and fitted to the post portion of the anchor. After healing, the artificial teeth are securely attached to the implant, providing excellent stability and comfort to the patient.

You will receive care instructions when your treatment is completed. Dental implants can be cared for just like your natural teeth and good oral hygiene, eating habits, and regular dental visits will even further extend the life of your new implant.
