What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are a long-lasting solution for replacing missing teeth. They are small titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone to act as artificial tooth roots. Once healed, a custom-made crown is attached to the implant to restore the look, feel, and function of a natural tooth.
Dental implants are widely considered the gold standard for tooth replacement because they are stable, durable, and help maintain the health of surrounding teeth and bone.
Benefits of Dental Implants
Natural Look and Feel
Implants are designed to look and function like natural teeth. The custom crown is matched to the colour and shape of your surrounding teeth for a seamless result.
Long-Lasting Solution
With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last many years and often decades.
Protects Jawbone Health
Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, implants help stimulate the jawbone and prevent bone loss.
Stable and Secure
Implants are fixed in place and do not move like removable dentures, providing greater comfort and confidence.
The Dental Implant Process
Consultation and Assessment
Your dentist will perform a full examination including X-rays or scans to determine whether dental implants are suitable for you.
Implant Placement
The implant is placed into the jawbone in a minor surgical procedure.
Healing Period
Over several months, the implant integrates with the bone in a process called osseointegration.
Crown Placement
Once healed, a custom crown is attached to the implant, restoring the appearance and function of the missing tooth.
