As our patient, you’ll be cared for by one doctor and one team focused on your unique needs.
A dental implant is a man-made tooth root substitute in the form of a small, titanium post. Placed in the socket of a missing tooth, jawbone tissue bonds strongly with implants to form a firm foundation for individual implant crowns, a denture, or a bridge. Dental implants stop the jawbone atrophy that occurs when teeth are missing, so your jaw stays healthy, with no diminishment to make replacement teeth slip.
