Dental Implants

What is a Dental Implant ?

A dental implant is an artificial tooth root that a periodontist places into your jaw to hold a replacement tooth or bridge. Dental implants are an ideal option for people in good general oral health who have lost a tooth or teeth due to periodontal disease, an injury, or some other reason.

Advantage of Dental Implants over a bridge or Denture

Every way you look at it, dental implants are a better solution to the problem of missing teeth.
 

Esthetic:

Dental implants look and feel like your own teeth. Since dental implants integrate into the structure of your bone, they prevent the bone loss and gum recession that often accompany bridgework and dentures. No one will ever know that you have a replacement tooth.

Tooth-saving:

Dental implants don't sacrifice the quality of your adjacent teeth like a bridge does because neighboring teeth

are not altered to support the implant. More of your own teeth are left untouched, which is a significant long-term benefit to your oral health.

Confidence:

Dental implants will allow you to once again speak and eat with comfort and confidence. They are secure and offer

freedom from the irksome clicks and wobbles of dentures. They'll allow you to say goodbye to worries about misplaced dentures and messy pastes and glues.

Reliable:

The success rate of dental implants is highly predictable. They are considered an excellent option for tooth replacement.
