What Are Dental Implants?
Using high-tech equipment and non-toxic, biocompatible materials, a dental implant is a titanium post that’s placed in your jawbone to act like the natural root of your tooth.
Once the implant has fully healed, we will secure the top portion of the restoration, usually a dental crown, part of a bridge, or dentures. The result is a brand new tooth (or set of teeth) that looks and functions just like your natural smile.

In some cases, we can place your implant in the office. Other times we will recommend that an oral surgeon places the implant and you return to see us for the implant crown.
The benefits of an implant include:
- Look and feel like your original tooth
- Strong and durable to last for years
- Made from a safe biocompatible material
