Dental Implants

Missing teeth cause loss of bone and muscle structure in the mouth and face. If you are missing a tooth or have severe problems with a tooth, you will begin to chew differently, putting pressure on other areas of your mouth. Your remaining healthy teeth may shift as well, causing gaps and spaces in your teeth that make your problem worse.

Regardless of the reason or the number of teeth involved, dental implants can restore your health and rejuvenate your smile. The implant itself is a specialized, surgical grade titanium post that is inserted into the bone that lies beneath the gums. During healing, the bone bonds to the post creating a firm foundation for a denture. The new tooth is shaped and shaded to match the rest of your teeth, restoring the look and function of your smile. Implants also reduce bone loss in the supportive structures of your mouth, improving your overall appearance and health in the future.
