Dental Implants
Dental implants are a great tooth replacement option. They are used to replace a missing tooth and restore your appearance and confidence, while giving you the ability to speak and eat naturally. They can also support a denture and dental bridge and increase comfort while reducing the potential for bone loss. Implants consist of a metal anchor (implant post) that serves as a substitute for the missing root, and a replacement tooth that fits over the anchor, matching your natural tooth. There are a lot of positives with dental implants, including: improving your quality of life, your comfort, and your confidence. They can also improve your overall dental health, preventing the bone loss that can accompany missing teeth, and restoring facial structure.

Why Dental Implants?
Dental implants are the latest and often most effective solution to missing teeth. Teeth can be lost in many ways, whether it’s tooth decay, gum disease, accident, trauma, failed root canal, or other dental issues. Implants can help replace tooth loss and restore both the beauty of your smile and the function of your teeth and bite. They have a great track record and are long-lived and effective when compared to older methods of replacing teeth, such as bridges and dentures.
What Are Dental Implants?
Implants are metal posts that anchor in and bond with your jawbone, similar to the roots of your natural teeth. They provide a strong, stable base for replacement teeth, which may be fixed or removable, depending on a patient’s needs. With an excellent success rate of over 95 percent, dental implants can be a permanent solution to your oral health issues.
