Dental Implants

Dental implants are an ideal option for people in good general oral health who have lost a tooth or teeth. Under proper placement and diligent patient maintenance, implants can last a lifetime. Dental implants look and feel much like your natural teeth. Implants can help prevent bone loss and gum recession that often accompanies bridgework and dentures. A dental implant is an artificial tooth root placed into your jaw to hold a replacement tooth or bridge in place. Implants can help save other teeth since implants do not rely on neighboring teeth for support. Dental implants are natural looking and feeling. Implants are secure and offer freedom from the irritating clicks, wobbles and pastes/glues of dentures.
