What are implants?
A dental implant is a small titanium post placed into the jawbone to replace the root portion of a missing tooth. The implant is surgically inserted into the jawbone, where it fuses with the bone during a process called osseointegration. This provides a stable base for attaching a dental crown, a dental bridge, or a denture.
Dental implants are a safe and effective solution if you want to improve your oral health and restore your smile. However, not everyone is a good candidate for dental implants, so it's important to consult a dental professional to determine if they are the right solution for your dental needs.

Benefits
Dental implants’ advantages over other tooth replacements, like dentures or bridges include the following:
- One of the most successful and long-lasting tooth replacement options
- Durable
- Comfortable
- More natural-looking
