Implant Restoration

Dental Implants are a more recent development in cosmetic dentistry and are used to replace any lost or damaged teeth with artificial teeth that are anchored more like your natural teeth. They allow adjoining teeth to be preserved without removing enamel as must usually be done with a bridge. Dental implants are an effective and proven procedure for successfully improving your smile.

Today's dental implants are virtually indistinguishable from other teeth. This appearance is aided in part by the structural and functional connection between the dental implant and the living bone. Implants are typically placed in a single sitting but require a period of osseointegration.

Osseointegration is the process by which direct anchorage of a dental implant root and the bone of the jaw occurs. Osseointegrated implants are the most commonly used and successful type of dental implant.

An osseointegrated implant takes anywhere from three to six months to anchor and heal, at which point we can complete the procedure with the placement of a crown.

Once the implant has anchored with the jawbone, artificial prosthesis may be attached and the process is done.
