If you are missing one or more teeth, you may feel self-conscious or find it difficult to enjoy your favorite foods. Dental implants have become the "gold standard" for tooth replacement because they look, feel, and function like natural teeth.

How do they work?

A dental implant is essentially an artificial tooth root. It consists of three parts:

• The Post: A small titanium screw placed into the jawbone that acts as a sturdy anchor.
• The Abutment: A connector piece that holds the replacement tooth.
• The Crown: A custom-made porcelain tooth designed to match the color and shape of your existing teeth perfectly.

The Benefits

Unlike dentures, implants are permanent and do not slip. Because they integrate with the bone, they also prevent the bone loss that typically occurs when a tooth is missing. Whether you’re looking to replace a single tooth or support a full bridge, implants offer a durable, long-term solution to restore your confidence.
