What is a Dental Implant?

A dental implant can be thought of as an artificial tooth root that’s inserted into your upper or lower jawbone. Our dental implants are constructed from titanium, a very strong material that’s compatible with your body, thus reducing the risk of dental infection or other complications.

We offer Dental Implants by Nobel Biocare and Implant Direct.

Benefits of Dental Implants

There are several reasons why dental implants may be the right option to replace a missing tooth or set of teeth. They include:

  • Dental Implants are the best alternative to replacing missing teeth because they offer a permanent solution (i.e. no need to touch your natural teeth or have ill-fitting Dentures)
  • Dentures give you only 20% chewing capacity. Implant-supported teeth give you 90% chewing capacity
  • Dental Implants cost less on average than a 3-unit bridge
  • Once implants get placed into your jawbone, you won’t have to worry about any future bone loss in that area, which is vital to the health of your other teeth
  • Implants are very much like having your own natural teeth. They look and feel just like your real teeth
  • When properly maintained by your dentist, implants have been shown to last up to 20 years or longer
  • Unlike your natural teeth or a bridge, you can’t get a cavity with implants
  • Feel healthier and happier due to improved digestion
  • Look younger, feel more self-confident and get the smile you always wanted!
  • Improve the quality of your life
