Dental implants are the new standard of care for tooth replacement. A dental implant consists of a titanium cylinder that is secured into the bone to provide long-term support for crowns and dentures.

Losing one or more of your teeth creates a gap in your smile, causes your remaining teeth to shift and affects your ability to chew properly, which can alter your diet and nutrition. Shrinking of the underlying jawbone is also seen since the bone no longer serves a function. This is why dentures become loose and uncomfortable over time. Dental implants are incorporated into the jawbone and look and feel like natural teeth. They maintain supporting bone and facial support, thus providing a predictable and comfortable long-term tooth replacement option.
