A dental implant is an artificial tooth root that an implantologist places into your jaw to hold a replacement tooth or bridge.
The procedure is done with local anesthesia and if the patient desires with slight IV sedation. Dental implants are an ideal option for people in good general and oral health who have lost a tooth or teeth due to periodontal disease, cavities, injuries, or some other reason.
Dental implants are more tooth-saving than traditional bridgework, since implants do not rely on neighboring teeth for support.
Dental implants are teeth that can look and feel just like your own! Under proper conditions, such as placement by an implantologist and diligent patient maintenance, implants can last a lifetime. Long-term studies continue to show improving success rates for implants.
