Implants

When an individual finds themselves with lost or extracted teeth, they will typically want a restorative solution that allows them to have a beautiful, flawless smile despite the missing teeth. There are a number of options available for replacing these teeth, and one popular option that patients often consider are dental implants.

A dental implant is a metallic cylinder made of titanium that is placed into the bone where original teeth were extracted or previously existed. They are the perfect solution to those who have missing teeth, whether it is just one tooth or a series of teeth. They are an alternative to dental bridges and dentures, and are a more permanent solution for many.

Dental implants, once crowned, appear to look exactly like your natural teeth. This is what makes them a great replacement option, as many will never know that you have restorations in your mouth due to the technological advances that allow dentists to match crowns and place restorative implants that will rival the look of natural teeth.
