Dental Implants
Millions of adults are missing one or more teeth.
In many cases missing teeth can cause more serious physiological mouth
and jaw issues as time goes on. Over the past 30 years, dental
implants have become one of the most effective methods of replacing
missing teeth.
This is because dental implants look and perform just like natural
teeth. The process of receiving and implant involves having a
metal post implanted into your jaw where your tooth once was.
After
your jaw bone starts to grow around the implant, a screw is applied onto
the post and then a natural looking tooth 'cap' is affixed to the screw.
Once in place and healed, your implant will feel just like one of your
real teeth. And as long as you properly take care of your implant
and visit regularly for checkups, it is likely to last for years and
years.
