Dental Implants

A Permanent Solution for Lost Teeth

There is no need to face a future with wobbly, ill-fitting dentures or loose bridgework. Now there is a new solution to replace missing teeth: dental implants. Implants are permanently implanted into the jawbone beneath the gum and look and feel just like your own teeth. Over time, they  become firmly united with the bone.

This procedure has many advantages over dentures and bridges. The most important being the totally natural feel and appearance of the teeth. Since the implant is integrated into the structure of the jawbone, there is normally no bone loss and gum recession that is common with dentures and bridgework.
