Dental implants are permanent replacements for missing teeth. They are made from metal, porcelain, or zirconium and are held in place with a screw. Once they are implanted, they become a permanent part of your smile. They look and feel very natural, and because they are secured into your jaw, they act as a natural teeth.

Dental implants are an effective, long-lasting solution for missing teeth. Dental implants are permanent, natural-looking tooth replacements. They are highly versatile and can be used to:

• Replace one or more missing teeth
• Hold a dental bridge in place
• Strengthen and stabilize a dental bridge
• Improve the fit of partial dentures
• Support a full denture
• Replace a full set of upper and/or lower teeth

Why Dental Implants?

Dental implants are the ideal replacement for missing teeth for the following reasons:

• They are permanent. They do not need to be removed or replaced like a partial denture or a dental bridge.
• They look and feel very natural.
• They act like natural teeth. They act the same as natural teeth, so they can be used to eat all of your favorite foods.
• They protect your oral health. Missing teeth leave gaps in your dental structure, leading to shifting and misalignment. This can make wearing dentures uncomfortable and cause pain and irritation.
• Dental implants help to prevent bone loss. When a tooth is missing, the bone where the tooth was will begin to deteriorate. This can lead to facial sagging and premature aging.

What makes Dental implants best?

Dental implants are a great way to replace missing teeth. Dental implants are designed to blend in with your other teeth. This makes them an ideal choice for those who do not want to deal with the hassle of removable dentures. 

Dental implants are a more conservative treatment than traditional bridges and dentures. The implant itself is a small titanium screw that is placed into the jawbone. The implant is then restored with a dental crown. The crown will mimic your natural teeth, and you will be able to eat and speak as you normally would.
