What is a dental implant?

A dental implant is an artificial tooth root which acts as an anchor for a replacement tooth. Shaped like a screw, it is surgically placed into the jawbone. After your bone heals around the implant, usually in three to six months, we place a permanent crown over the implant to complete your restoration.

Who needs dental implants?

Dental implants can be a great option for patients who are missing a tooth or teeth but still want something that can feel and function like a natural tooth. A dental implant can restore the look, feel, and function of a natural tooth.
