Implants are the revolutionary way to secure loose dentures or permanently replace a missing tooth. Ill-fitting dentures can make eating with family and friends difficult. You may also have noticed changes to the contour of your lips, which can make you look older. Dental implants can restore your quality of life and confidence.
What is an implant?
A dental implant is a titanium rod which serves to function as an artificial root for your tooth. A completely natural looking crown is custom-made to sit on top of the implant and blend in with your natural teeth.
How it works
Your implant is surgically placed into the jawbone and integrates with the surrounding bone material. This integration process can take anywhere from 3 to 6 months after which it is restored with an artificial crown. Implants can be used to provide support for bridges, crowns or dentures.
