What Are Dental Implants
Dental implants are small titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone to replace missing tooth roots. Once healed, they support crowns, bridges, or dentures that look, feel, and function like natural teeth.
Dental implants can be used to replace:
- A single missing tooth
- Multiple missing teeth
- An entire arch of teeth with implant-supported dentures
Because implants integrate with the jawbone, they provide exceptional stability and help prevent bone loss after tooth loss.
The Dental Implants Process
Dental implant treatment is completed in stages to ensure long-term success:
Comprehensive Exam & Treatment Planning
We evaluate your oral health, bone structure, and medical history using digital imaging to determine if dental implants are right for you.
Implant Placement
The titanium implant is carefully placed into the jawbone during a minor surgical procedure. Local anesthesia is used for comfort.
Healing & Osseointegration
Over the next few months, the implant fuses with the jawbone, creating a strong and stable foundation.
Abutment Placement
Once healing is complete, a connector (abutment) is attached to the implant.
Final Restoration
A custom crown, bridge, or denture is secured to the implant, restoring function and appearance.
When Are Dental Implants Recommended
Dental implants may be recommended if you:
- Are missing one or more teeth
- Want a long-term, fixed tooth replacement option
- Have sufficient jawbone or are a candidate for bone grafting
- Want to prevent bone loss and facial collapse
- Prefer a solution that looks and functions like natural teeth
Implants help maintain bite alignment and support long-term oral health.
