DENTAL IMPLANTS
Unfortunately, tooth loss is an issue that affects many adults every day. You might need tooth replacement if you suffer from injury, neglect or periodontal disease. In the past, bridges and dentures would have been your only options, but, in recent years, the dental industry has made huge strides in advancing its technology, and dental implants are now another option.
Dental implants are replacement tooth roots that create a strong foundation for either fixed or removable replacement teeth. A titanium post is inserted into the missing tooth’s bone socket. The jawbone will grow around the post throughout the healing process, ultimately strengthening and securing the implant.

WHY CHOOSE DENTAL IMPLANTS?
Dental implants are considered the best and most popular method of tooth replacement as they are more convenient and visually subtle than traditional methods. They are designed to look and feel like your natural teeth, and their integration with your jawbone makes it a permanent solution. Dental implants give you back all the functionality of your mouth, which is a huge benefit if tooth loss has caused difficulty with tasks like eating and speaking. Dentures do have the problem of sacrificing functionality, but you won’t have this issue with implants.
HOW INVASIVE IS THE TREATMENT?
Implants can provide a permanent solution to tooth loss. Unlike bridges that require your dentist to reduce natural teeth, this method doesn’t rely on nearby teeth for support and is thus less invasive than other methods of tooth replacement.
CAN I GET DENTAL IMPLANTS?
A dental implant is an excellent option for anybody with healthy gums and sufficient remaining bone to hold the tooth. It only requires a minor surgical procedure, making it suitable for even nervous patients!
