What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are a revolutionary solution for anyone looking to replace missing teeth. They offer a blend of durability, aesthetics, and functionality that closely mirrors natural teeth. Here's how they are placed:

The Titanium Post

The journey to a new smile begins with the implant itself, a titanium post that acts as an artificial tooth “root.” This post is expertly placed into your bone, where it integrates with the bone over time, creating a strong foundation for the artificial tooth.

The Abutment

Once the implant has bonded with your jawbone, an abutment is attached. This component links the implant and the replacement tooth, emerging just above the gum line.

The Crown

The final piece of the puzzle is the crown. Custom-designed to match your natural teeth in color, shape, and size, the crown is attached to the abutment, completing your transformation.

Benefits of Dental Implants

Choosing dental implants offers several advantages:

Natural Look & Feel

Implants mimic the appearance and function of your natural teeth, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.

Longevity

With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime, making them a cost-effective solution.

Bone Heath

Unlike other tooth replacement options, implants stimulate and preserve natural bone growth, helping to maintain your facial structure.

Improved Oral Health

Implants don't require altering adjacent teeth, which preserves more of your natural tooth structure.

Implants

Our traditional dental implants provide a sturdy, permanent base for individual crowns, bridges, or dentures. They're the closest you can get to natural teeth, offering unparalleled stability and confidence.

Snap-In Dentures

Snap-in dentures represent a significant upgrade from traditional dentures. Anchored by implants, these dentures snap securely into place, eliminating common issues like slipping or discomfort. They're removable for easy cleaning, blending convenience with the benefits of implant technology.

All-On-X

For those in need of a full arch restoration, the All-on-X procedure offers a comprehensive solution. This technique involves placing four or more implants in the jaw, which support a full set of prosthetic teeth. The result is a fixed, non-removable set of teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth, dramatically improving quality of life.
