Why Choose Dental Implants?
Dental implants are an ideal solution for missing teeth, offering a permanent, durable, and natural-looking replacement option. Unlike dentures or bridges, implants are surgically placed in the jawbone, allowing them to function just like your natural teeth. This option not only restores your smile but also helps maintain the structure of your jawbone, preventing bone loss that can occur when teeth are missing.
The Dental Implant Process
Consultation and Evaluation
Your journey begins with a comprehensive evaluation, including 3D imaging to assess bone density and create a custom treatment plan.
Implant Placement
During a minor surgical procedure, the implant post is placed in the jawbone, serving as a sturdy foundation for the replacement tooth.
Healing and Osseointegration
Over a few months, the implant integrates with your bone, ensuring stability.
Restoration Placement
Once healed, a crown, bridge, or denture is placed, completing your restoration for a seamless, natural smile.
