What is a Dental Implant?
Dental implants are long term jaw fixtures that can be used to either support fixed teeth or provide further stability to dentures.
A dental implant acts as an artificial tooth root and is placed into the jawbone. A dental crown is then placed on the top of that root. Dental implants are made from titanium and are considered to be the most secure and reliable teeth replacement solution available today.

Dental implant treatment is a well-established, safe and long-lasting teeth replacement solution. Replacing missing teeth is important in order to keep your teeth, gums and jawbone healthy. A face without teeth can change its shape over time. Dental implants help to retain your natural face structure and shape which can greatly boost your confidence.
Implants can be used as part of a wide range of treatment options from replacing a single missing tooth to replacing all of the upper or lower teeth.
