Dental implants are a modern marvel in tooth replacement. Unlike dentures, which rest on the gums, implants mimic the natural structure of a tooth. A small, screw-like post, typically made of titanium, is surgically inserted into the jawbone. This post acts as an artificial root, providing a stable foundation for a replacement tooth, often a custom-crafted crown. Implants offer numerous advantages. They look, feel, and function just like natural teeth, restoring confidence in your smile and your bite. Additionally, implants help preserve jawbone health, preventing the sunken-in appearance that can occur with tooth loss. While the procedure itself takes time and expertise, dental implants are a long-term solution for a complete, natural-looking smile.

Caring for implants is just like caring for natural teeth. Brush and floss your implants daily to prevent any infection of the tissues surrounding them.  Schedule periodic cleanings and exams at our office (usually every 6 months) for continued maintenance and long-term implant success.

When cared for, implants have the potential to last for life. More importantly, it will give you the self-confidence and oral functionality you have been waiting for.  You’re probably asking yourself “Where can I find dental implants near me?” We’re here to answer that question for you.
