Implant Treatment

Dental implants are another permanent system for replacing missing teeth. They consist of tiny titanium posts which are fixed in the jaw bone to hold a single crown, bridge or full denture in place. They can be ideal for those who cannot tolerate loose dentures and will complete your smile makeover for ever.

Are Dental Implants Right For Me?
The most common indications for implant therapy are:

Replacement of one or more missing teeth.
Support of a non-removable "bridge" to replace multiple teeth.
Support of a removable full or partial denture

The primary limiting factor in implant therapy is the amount of bone available to receive and support the implant. If a patient does not have enough bone to support an implant restoration, bone grafting procedures may be considered. Heavy smoking and some medical conditions may preclude the use of implant therapy.
