About the Service

Dental implants serve the same purpose as the roots of natural teeth: anchoring the replacement teeth to your jawbone.

During a minor surgical procedure, your dental implant is inserted directly into the jawbone in the space vacated by the missing tooth. It will then be left to heal for a period of months before the final crown is attached. During this healing period, the implant actually fuses to the bone surrounding it.

Just like natural tooth roots, they lie under the gum line and therefore are not visible in the mouth. Only the lifelike prosthetic teeth attached to them (the fixed denture) can be seen by you or anyone else. Because dental implants are made of titanium, a metal that has the unique ability to fuse to living bone, they are extremely stable and reliable. How many implants are needed? The number varies because each individual has unique conditions: Depending on the volume and density of the bone in your jaw, you will need as few as four implants or as many as six for your new teeth to function as well as a set of healthy, natural teeth.

Why you might need Dental Implants?

Dental implants are the gold standard in tooth replacement. They look, feel, and function like your natural teeth, restoring your smile and so much more. Here's why you might need dental implants:

• Missing Teeth: Whether you've lost a single tooth, several teeth, or an entire arch, implants can restore your smile.
• Preserve Jawbone Health: Implants act like tooth roots, stimulating the jawbone and preventing it from shrinking over time.
• Restore Chewing and Speech: Implants provide a secure foundation for normal chewing and clear speech.
• Securely Anchor Dentures: Implants can provide stability for loose dentures or bridges, improving chewing ability and overall comfort.
