What's a dental implant?
An implant is a small titanium post that sits in your jawbone where a tooth root used to be. Once it heals, a custom crown goes on top. The result is a stable, natural-looking tooth that doesn't slide around or need to come out at night.
Why people choose implants
- Replace one tooth without touching the teeth next to it
- Chew and smile with confidence
- Help keep your jawbone healthy where a tooth is missing
- Stabilize dentures so they stop slipping
How it works
Implants happen in a few stages over several months: planning, placing the post, letting it heal and bond with the bone, then attaching your crown. We'll explain exactly how your treatment will work, how long it takes and what it costs before anything starts.
