Free Consultation and Free 3D Imaging
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots that are used to replace missing teeth. They provide a strong foundation for fixed or removable replacement teeth that are designed to match your natural teeth.
The implant itself is typically made of biocompatible materials, such as titanium, that can fuse with the jawbone. This process is called osseointegration and ensures stability and durability for the implant. The implant is surgically placed into the jawbone, where it integrates with the surrounding bone over time.
After the implant has fused with the jawbone, an abutment is attached to it. The abutment serves as a connector between the implant and the replacement tooth. It protrudes above the gumline and provides a secure attachment for a dental crown, bridge, or denture.

Dental implant treatment typically involves a comprehensive evaluation and planning, including the assessment of your oral health, bone structure, and suitability for the procedure. It is important to consult with a qualified dental professional, such as a prosthodontist or oral surgeon, to determine if dental implants are the right option for you.
