Dental implants are the best replacement option to the real thing because they’re rooted in bone just like your original teeth. The procedure involves setting one or more implant anchors into the jawbone. These roots, made of titanium, are strong, non-toxic, and biologically compatible with the mouth. Over time, the bone actually grows into the implant itself. Once this bond stabilizes we restore the root with a natural-appearing replacement tooth. Or we use the root as an anchor to support a bridge or denture. Patients love the fact that implants have the look and feel of natural teeth.
