Dental Implants Replace Missing Teeth

Implants are the perfect solution for most people with missing teeth. Dental implants are metal rods about a centimeter long that are placed inside the jawbone and serve the same purpose as the roots of teeth. Dental implants are used to replace individual or multiple teeth and are becoming a popular alternative to traditional dentures.

What is a Dental Implant?

A dental implant is a small "anchor" made of titanium. It is inserted into the jawbone to replace your missing tooth root. A prosthetic replacement tooth is then secured to the top of the implant. For example, a denture, crown or bridge. Titanium implants are very durable, and are well accepted by the human body. Whether you need to replace a single missing tooth or many teeth, dental implants are an effective and preferable treatment option. Learn more about Dental Implants.

Are You a Candidate for Dental Implants?

If you're healthy enough to have a tooth extracted, you're probably healthy enough to have an implant. Whether your missing teeth are the result of injury, disease or decay, dental implants are often the best solution. General good health and adequate bone in the jaw are the key requirements.
