Here’s how it works

A dental implant is a small titanium screw secured to the jaw that acts like a natural tooth root. Once the implant has fused with the bone, a crown, bridge or restoration is secured to the implant.

Dental professionals widely agree that implants can achieve the most natural looking and long lasting solution for missing or damaged teeth. Their durability, functionality and realistic appearance has led to growing demand as patients look beyond traditional dentures and bridges to a more effective solution for tooth loss.

What is the success rate for dental implants?

– Periodontal gum disease

– Heavy smoking

– Severe or poorly managed diabetes

– High alcohol intake

– Conditions that suppress the immune system

What can be done if I don’t have sufficient bone tissue to support implants?

Inadequate bone tissue may necessitate a surgical bone grafting procedure before implantation. Over time, bone in the area of missing teeth will naturally shrink and a bone graft may be required to ensure stability for the implant. During your consultation you will be advised whether a bone graft or a sinus lift procedure will be necessary in your case to ensure the stability of the implant. How Much Do Dental Implants Cost?
