Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental implants preserve jawbone.

Similar to the natural teeth, dental implants preserve the integrity of your jawbone and your facial structure. Without implants, the jawbone tends to shrink and even the surrounding teeth may begin to deteriorate.

Dental implants preserve adjacent teeth

Dental implants look and function like the natural teeth. They replace missing teeth without compromising the neighboring teeth, unlike a crown or a bridge.

Dental implants have long-term success

Dental implants are as strong and as functional as the natural teeth. They stay put and do not come loose like dentures nor do they decay like natural teeth. Dental implant treatment is the tooth replacement option with the highest documented success rate of 95% to 98% well over fifteen years.

Dental implants are taken care of as you would with your natural teeth

Caring for dental implants is a breeze. You can brush and floss just like you would with your natural teeth.

Step 1.

A titanium post, similar to a tooth root, is placed into the jawbone where the tooth is missing. After two to six months the bone will grow around the post in a process called osseointegration, creating a strong foundation for an artificial tooth.

Step 2.

The next step is to attach an abutment to the implant. This is the part of implant that will support the final crown.

Step 3.

The last step is to have a crown (cap) restoration crafted and fastened onto the abutment. Crowns will give the implant a natural looking and functional finish. Read more about crowns on our Crowns and Bridges page.
