DENTAL IMPLANTS
Discover the Permanent and Natural way to
Replace Missing, Broken or Damaged Teeth
What are Dental Implants?
Dental Implants provide a foundation for replacement teeth. Implants look, feel and function like natural-looking teeth. If you’ve lost your teeth you can regain the ability to eat anything again. Smile with confidence again with your new natural-looking pearly whites.
The implants themselves are tiny titanium posts. Your dentist places them into the jawbone where teeth are missing. The bone bonds with the titanium. This bonding creates a strong foundation for artificial teeth. In addition, dental implants help preserve facial structure and prevent bone deterioration. Both which often occur when teeth are missing.
Dental implants are changing the way people live! They’re rediscovering the comfort and confidence to eat, speak, and enjoy life again.

Dental Implant Procedure
Dental implants are like metal anchors. They act as tooth root substitutes. The dentist places them surgically into your jawbone. Next is placing the small posts called “abutments” onto the implant. These posts provide stable anchors for artificial replacement teeth called “crowns.”
Placement of your implants involves two surgical procedures. First is placing the implants within your jawbone. For the first 2 – 4 months post-surgery, the implants are beneath the surface of the gums. They will be gradually bonding with the jawbone. During bonding, you will be able to wear temporary dentures and eat a soft diet during this time. Concurrently, your restorative dentist designs the final bridge or denture. This final piece will ultimately improve both your function and aesthetics.
When the implant bonds completely to the jawbone, the second phase begins. The dentist uncovers the implants and attach a small healing collar. We can then start making your new teeth. This step involves taking an impression. Then the abutments can connect to the implants. The replacement teeth cover over the abutments. This entire procedure usually takes several months for completion which varies on patient to patient basis
