Dental Implants

Dental implants are artificial teeth roots, made with biocompatible and durable titanium. They create a strong foundation for fitting artificial teeth and other dental restoration.

What are dental implants?

When our dentist places the implant, it fuses with the natural bone to create an anchor for the dental prosthetics. The fusion process is known as osseointegration. Depending on your preference, you can get a bridge, full arch or crown fitted on the implant.

Dental implants have been in use as a dental treatment for over thirty years, and have experienced different innovations since its introduction. Dental implants are safe, and their success rate is very high. They are also durable and can last as long as the natural teeth, if you engage in good oral hygienic practices.

Benefits of dental implants

Dental implants restore your teeth and natural smile, which helps to enhance your appearance. Having a perfect smile also boosts your self-confidence and social life. Dental implants feel and look like the natural teeth, plus they last as long as natural teeth.

A dentist places the implants in your jaw for it to integrate and form a strong base for your dental restoration, so your implants serve as a supporting structure and the root of the dental prosthetics. Since dental implants serve as a replacement for the root of your tooth, they help prevent bone loss and the effects of a sagging face.
