Implant Dentistry

Dental Implants provide a stable base for replacement teeth that look, feel and work like natural teeth. With dental implants, a person who has lost teeth regains the ability to eat & smile with confidence. Implants can replace a single tooth or be the foundation for replacing an entire dentition.

Dental Implants are cylinders made of Titanium that are surgically implanted into the jaw. The jaw bone grows around the base of the implant, while the top protrudes through the gums. Once they are secure in the jaw, the implants serve as anchors for tooth replacement such as crowns, fixed bridges and secure, removable dentures.
