Dental implants are placed into the jaw bone to permanently replace missing teeth.

Dental Implant benefit

When you have a missing tooth, your facial structure and even speech patterns can be affected. Dental implants prevent this and serve as permanent replacements.

Dental Implant More benefits

Dental implants can ensure the integrity of your bite, ability to eat and speak, and give you a normal and healthy appearance for years to come.

Dental Implants & Bridges

While a dental bridge may have been required to maintain the integrity of a few decayed teeth, now dental implants can be used to connect the bridge and keep teeth from being ground down.

Their materials

Dental implants are made of three major parts:

  • A titanium screw placed in your jaw bone
  • An abutment connector
  • A digitally color-matched dental crown that looks like your real teeth

How long?

Dental crowns take some time because they have to heal with your jaw bone completely. The screw will be placed, then you will heal for months before receiving your crown.
