Dental Implants

Home »  Dental Implants

 

  • A dental implant is actually a replacement for the root or roots of a tooth.
  • Like tooth roots, dental implants are secured in the jawbone and are not visible once surgically placed.
  • They are used to secure crowns (the parts of teeth seen in the mouth), bridgework or dentures.
  • Implants help maintain the jawbone’s shape and density.
  • This means they also support the facial skeleton and, indirectly, the soft tissue structures — gum tissues, cheeks and lips.
  • Dental implants help you eat, chew, smile, talk and look completely natural.
  • This functionality imparts social, psychological and physical well-being.
