Dental Implants: The Permanent, Natural-Looking Solution for Missing Teeth

A dental implant is a permanent solution for replacing missing teeth. It’s essentially an artificial tooth root, usually made of titanium, that is surgically placed into the jawbone. Over time, the implant integrates with the bone through a process called Osseo integration, making it a stable foundation for a replacement tooth.

Key Components of a Dental Implant

1. Implant Post – The titanium screw that serves as the root of the artificial tooth.
2. Abutment – A small connector placed on top of the implant to hold the replacement tooth.
3. Crown, Bridge, or Denture – The visible, custom-made tooth or teeth attached to the abutment.

Implants look and feel just like your own natural tooth. They last much longer than traditional dentures and bridges and will help maintain your jawbone health, along with improving your chewing function and speech.

We’ve had many patients having implants done who have all reported a much more confident lifestyle and improved dietary health.

“I missed eating crusty foods and being able to chew steaks, now with my implants I’ve been able to eat a nice crusty cheese rolls and finally enjoy all the foods I loved and not being able too. Defiantly worth the investment”

Just one comment from our patient whose self-confidence has been boosted with having dental implants and restored her smile without feeling embarrassed.

Dental implants are a revolutionary solution for replacing missing teeth, offering unparalleled benefits in terms of aesthetics, functionality, and long-term oral health. If you’re considering tooth replacement options, consult a dental professional to determine if implants are the right choice for you.
