Permanent Tooth Replacement
Missing a tooth? Dental implants provide a long-lasting solution that looks, feels, and functions just like a natural tooth. They restore your ability to chew, speak, and smile confidently, while also helping to protect your overall oral health.
What are Dental Implants
A dental implant is a small titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone to replace a lost tooth root. Once securely in place, a crown is attached to restore the function and appearance of the missing tooth. Implants help prevent bone loss, preserve jaw structure, and stop adjacent teeth from shifting. As a durable and permanent solution, dental implants are an excellent choice for replacing one or more missing teeth.
Types of Dental Implants
Single Tooth Implant
A single dental implant replaces one missing tooth by placing a titanium post in the jawbone, acting as a replacement root. A crown is then attached, restoring both the appearance and function of the tooth while preserving bone structure.
Description:
Implant-Supported Bridge
An implant-supported bridge replaces multiple missing teeth using fewer implants for support. The implants serve as anchors for a bridge, restoring the appearance and function of several teeth while maintaining jawbone health and preventing shifting of surrounding teeth
Description:
Full Arch/All-on-4 Implants
All-on-4 replaces all the teeth in the upper or lower jaw with a fixed set supported by four or more implants. This solution provides a secure, permanent replacement for missing teeth, restoring both function and appearance while helping preserve the jawbone structure.
