What Are Dental Implants?

A permanent solution for missing teeth

Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone beneath the gum line that allow your dentist to mount replacement teeth or a bridge into that area. They are the closest replacement to your natural teeth.

How It Works

The implant fuses with your jawbone, providing a stable foundation for an artificial tooth (crown) that looks and functions like your natural teeth.

Benefits

• Look and feel like natural teeth
• Permanent solution (not removable)
• Preserve jawbone health
• Don't affect adjacent teeth
• Can last a lifetime with proper care

Candidates

Most adults with good oral health are candidates for dental implants. Adequate bone in the jaw is needed to support the implant. We'll evaluate your specific situation during a consultation.

The Process

Typically requires several months and multiple visits: consultation, implant placement, healing period, and crown attachment.

Implant Options

Solutions for every situation

Single Tooth Implant

Replace a single missing tooth with one implant topped with a custom crown.

Implant-Supported Bridge

Replace multiple missing teeth with implants supporting a permanent bridge.

Full Arch Implants

Replace a full arch of teeth with implant-supported dentures for maximum stability.
