Losing a tooth can lead to significant problems and dental implants are a high tech solution that can provide the most comfortable, effective and aesthetic replacement of these missing teeth.
Dental implants are small, titanium fixtures that are analogous to the root of a tooth. They are surgically placed into the jawbone to replace one or more missing teeth. After healing, the artificial tooth or “crown” is constructed and attached to the implant via a connector called an abutment.
Some of the advantages of dental implants are that they are more stable and comfortable than dentures, they can restore speech and the sense of taste and provide better support for the cheeks to prevent the hollowed out appearance that can occur when teeth are missing. In essence, dental implants are the closest you can get to having your natural tooth back.
