What Are Dental Implants?

If you have one or more missing teeth, dental implants can be an effective solution. Before implants were an option, the only choice for replacing teeth was dentures.

A dental implant is a titanium screw that a dentist surgically places into your jawbone. This screw is permanently anchored to the jawbone, providing a stable, lasting root for a replacement dental crown, which is an artificial tooth that looks and feels natural.

Implants are expertly designed to mimic your natural teeth, improving both your oral health and your smile. If a single tooth is missing, the implant replaces the root, and the crown replaces the visible tooth. For multiple missing teeth, several implants can be used to support a dental bridge, allowing a wider gap to be securely spanned.

Do you want something more realistic and permanent than dentures or a removable bridge? Dental implants have become the norm for patients who are missing one or multiple teeth. Rather than resting on the gum line like dentures, dental implants are long-term replacements that are secured in your jawbone, just like your natural teeth.
