What Is a Dental Implant?
A dental implant is a titanium artificial root that is surgically placed into the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth. Once the implant is integrated into the bone, a crown, bridge, or denture is attached to create a result that looks and functions just like a natural tooth.
Benefits of Dental Implants
Durability
With proper care, implants can last a lifetime—making them a long-term solution
Natural appearance
Implant-supported crowns and prosthetics are custom-made to blend seamlessly with your existing teeth
Bone preservation
Implants stimulate the jawbone, helping prevent bone loss (a common issue after tooth loss)
Comfort and stability
Unlike removable dentures, implants are fixed in place for superior comfort and confidence
Improved oral function
Speak, chew, and smile just as you would with your natural teeth
Who Is a Good Candidate for Implants?
Dental implants are suitable for most healthy individuals who have enough bone density in their jaw to support the implant. If bone is lacking, a bone graft may be recommended before placement. Our dentists will assess your case during a consultation to determine whether implants are right for you.
Dental Implant Treatment Process
Initial Evaluation
We begin with a comprehensive examination, including x-rays or a 3D scan, to evaluate your jawbone health and plan your treatment.
Implant Placement
The implant is surgically inserted into the jawbone under local anesthesia for your comfort.
Healing Period
A few weeks to several months are needed for the implant to fully integrate with the bone (a process called osseointegration).
Restoration Placement
Once the implant is stable, a crown, bridge, or denture is affixed to complete your treatment.
