Dental Implant
are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel and
function like natural teeth. The person who has lost teeth regains the ability
to eat virtually anything and can smile with confidence, knowing that teeth
appear natural and that facial contours will be preserved. The Implant
are tiny titanium posts which are placed
into the jawbone where teeth are missing. The bone bonds with the titanium,
creating a strong foundation for artificial teeth. In addition, implants can
help preserve facial structure, preventing the bone deterioration which occurs
when teeth are missing.

following surgery, the implants
are beneath the surface of the gums, gradually bonding with the jawbone. You

denture, which will ultimately improve both function and aesthetics.
