A dental implant is an option for replacing a missing tooth. During this procedure, a small titanium post is surgically implanted into the bone and allowed to set. The bone grows around the post, forming a tight connection, which additionally slows or stops the bone loss that occurs when the root of a natural tooth is missing. Once the implant is firmly set in the mouth, the dentist then works to attach the replacement tooth onto the top of the shaft. This permanent solution has advantages over bridges in that implants do not stress the surrounding teeth for support, and, should the tooth wear out, another can simply be replaced on the shaft.<\/p>\n
Implants can also be used as support as part of an implant bridge. This is an alternative to partial dentures, and has several advantages. First, there is no adjustment period to acclimatize the patient who, once the work is done, only feels teeth, not metal supports intruding into the mouth. Second, implants slow the bone loss associated with missing teeth. Third, there is no discomfort or difficulty in eating. and, best of all, implants never have to be removed.<\/p>\n
We also offer mini dental implants. These implants are about half the diameter of traditional implants and are used mainly to stabilize lower dentures. These implants can be placed in one appointment and can be immediately used. The cost is 50-70% of standard dental implants.<\/p>\n

A dental implant is one of the most permanent forms of restorative dentistry and can be used to restore a single tooth or several teeth. Dental implants involve the placement of a surgical grade titanium post by one of the doctor\u2019s trusted specialists. As the bone bonds to the post, it forms a secure foundation for the attachment of a crown or a prosthetic tooth that is custom created for you. Implants are sometimes used instead of bridges to maintain the integrity of the teeth on either side of the missing teeth.<\/p>\n
