Dental implant is an artificial tooth root that an implantologist places into your jaw to hold a replacement tooth or bridge. Single teeth, crowns, bridges or complete dentures can be build up on implants. Dental implants are used for more than 50 years to replace lost teeth.

Dental implants are more tooth-saving than traditional bridgework, since implants do not rely on neighboring teeth for support.
Dental implants can:

• replace one or more teeth without affecting bordering teeth
• support a bridge and eliminate the need for a removable partial denture
• provide support for a denture, making it more secure and comfortable

Dental implants are a better solution to the problem of missing teeth:

Cost effective:

Because only one tooth is replaced instead of the three teeth or a bridge, tooth replacement with dental implant can cost less comparing with the traditional bridgework.

Esthetic:

Dental implants look and feel like your own teeth! Since dental implants integrate into the structure of your bone, they prevent the bone loss and gum recession that often accompany bridgework and dentures.No one will ever know that you have a replacement tooth.

Tooth-saving:

Dental implants don't sacrifice the quality of your adjacent teeth like a bridge does because neighboring teeth are not altered to support the implant. More of your own teeth are left untouched, a significant long term benefit to your oral health!

Confidence:

Dental implants will allow you to once again speak and eat with comfort and confidence! They are secure and offer freedom from the irksome clicks and wobbles of dentures. They'll allow you to say goodbye to worries about misplaced dentures and messy pastes and glues.

Reliable:

The success rate of dental implants is highly predictable. They are considered an excellent option for tooth replacement.
