Dental Implants Dental implants are replacement tooth roots. Implants provide a strong foundation for fixed (permanent) or removable replacement teeth that are made to match your natural teeth. These are generally titanium replacements of tooth roots, and allow for affixed (permanent) or removable replacement teeth to be placed that are made to match your natural teeth.
Dental implants are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth which look, feel, and function like natural teeth. A person who has lost or damaged teeth regains the ability to eat virtually anything and can smile with confidence, knowing that teeth appear natural and that facial contours will be preserved.
If you feel implant dentistry is the choice for you, you will generally undergo an examination and health history analysis. During these consultation visits, your specific needs and considerations will be addressed by a qualified doctor. Your questions and concerns are important to us and our team will work with you very closely to help make your procedure a success.
One of the most important parts of the value of dental implants as compared to dentures or other procedures, is their permanence. Dental implants are permanently fixed in place and never need to be removed; in fact, with good care, they can last a lifetime. This is a significant difference from the 10 year lifespan of a typical partial or the frequency with which dentures are damaged or lost when removed. And, because each implant is placed individually, if something does happen, you do not have to replace all of them, just the one tooth.
