Dental Implants

A dental implant is a high-tech replacement tooth that looks, feels, and functions like a natural tooth. With dental implants, a person regains the ability to eat normally and smile confidently knowing their teeth appear natural. Dental implants are the preferred tooth replacement solution because of the numerous advantages over other treatments. If cared for properly, dental implants can last a lifetime.

The dental implant body is a titanium post which is surgically inserted into the jawbone. The metal anchor acts as a root substitute, creating a strong foundation for the crown portion of the tooth, which eventually attaches to the implant body.
