What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a post that replaces the root of the missing tooth. They are usually made of titanium. Implants look and function like screws, and are surgically placed in the jawbone. A piece called an abutment is attached to the top of the implant. Finally, a custom-made crown (replacement tooth) is fitted to match your natural teeth and is connected to the abutment.
The term “dental implant” may also be used to describe a post, abutment, and crown all combined.

Dental Implants: The Gold Standard For Tooth Replacement
Dental implants deliver a natural look and feel unmatched by other tooth replacement options. Replacement teeth that are secured with dental implants closely mimic the appearance and function of natural teeth. We custom-design them to blend in seamlessly with your existing teeth. This provides a natural and aesthetically pleasing result.
But dental implants offer many other advantages, too. Benefits include:
- Excellent Chewing Function: Unlike removable dentures, dental implants provide stable support for consuming food. You can bite into and chew a variety of foods with confidence and speak clearly.
- No Impact on Adjacent Teeth: Replacing your teeth with dental implants does not require alteration of adjacent healthy teeth for support like dental bridges. Choosing dental implants will preserve the rest of your natural teeth.
- Enhanced Comfort: Since dental implants become a permanent part of your jaw, they eliminate the discomfort often associated with removable dentures. There is no slipping, clicking, or irritation commonly experienced with other tooth replacement options.
- High Success Rate: Dental implants have a high success rate when placed by experienced professionals and when patients follow proper care and maintenance. The success rate is generally over 95%, making them a reliable and effective treatment.
- Improved Self-Confidence: Dental implants will fully restore your smile and facial appearance. This can boost self-confidence and positively impact social and professional interactions.
- Durability: Implant-secured restorations are a durable and long-lasting option. If you properly care for your new teeth, they can last for many years, even a lifetime. This makes them a cost-effective and sustainable solution for tooth replacement.
- Preserved Facial Structure. Dental implants help maintain the integrity of the jawbone. When a tooth is lost, the surrounding bone will deteriorate over time. The implant posts act as artificial tooth roots. This will stimulate the jawbone and prevent bone loss. By preventing bone loss, your facial structure will also remain intact.
- Easy Maintenance: Caring for dental implants is similar to maintaining natural teeth. Regular brushing, flossing, and routine dental check-ups are usually sufficient to keep implants in good condition.
