Implants
WHAT IS A DENTAL IMPLANT?
A dental implant is a small titanium post that replaces the root of a missing tooth. It supports a custom crown, bridge, or denture — restoring full function and appearance.
Parts of a dental implant:
-
Implant post – surgically placed into the jawbone
-
Abutment – connector piece
-
Restoration – crown, bridge, or denture placed on top
Think of it as a real tooth — from root to crown.
WHY CHOOSE DENTAL IMPLANTS?
1. Look, feel, and function like real teeth
2. Prevent bone loss and facial collapse
3. Don’t slip or shift like dentures
4. Help you chew, speak, and smile with confidence
5. Last decades with proper care

Common Questions
Is it painful?
Surprisingly, most patients report minimal discomfort — less than a tooth extraction.
How long does it take?
From start to finish, the process may take several months, but it’s worth the lifetime results.
What if I’ve had bone loss?
We’ll explore bone grafting or alternative solutions — there’s almost always a path forward.
Is it expensive?
Implants are an investment, but they last far longer than bridges or dentures. We’ll provide transparent costs and flexible payment plans.
