Dental implant restorations offer a remarkable solution for individuals seeking to replace missing teeth and restore their smiles to their natural beauty. Unlike other tooth replacement options, dental implants provide a comprehensive restoration that mimics the look, feel and functionality of natural teeth. The process involves two key components: the implant post and the implant restoration. Depending on the number of missing teeth, the restoration may take the form of a single crown, a dental bridge, or a complete or partial denture. Each implant restoration is meticulously crafted using state-of-the-art technology by a trusted local dental lab to provide a natural, aesthetic and long-lasting solution for your smile.

FAQ
What are dental implants?
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made of titanium that provide a permanent base for fixed or removable replacement teeth. They are surgically placed into the jawbone, where they fuse with the bone over time. Dental implants offer a durable and natural-looking solution for replacing missing teeth.
What is the dental implant process?
The dental implant process involves several steps, starting with a consultation and examination. If you are a good candidate for implant dentistry, our dentists will proceed with your treatment. The first step involves surgically placing the implant into your jawbone. After a healing period, during which the implant fuses with the bone, our dentists will attach an abutment to the implant post. Finally, we will place a custom-made implant restoration atop the post, completing your treatment.
What are dental implant restorations?
Dental implant restorations are the final step in the dental implant process, involving the placement of the crown, bridge or denture onto the implant. These restorations are custom-made to match your natural teeth in color, shape and size, providing a functional and aesthetically pleasing solution for missing teeth.
What are the benefits of dental implants?
Dental implants offer numerous benefits, including improved appearance, speech, and comfort. They provide a durable, long-lasting solution for missing teeth and help maintain bone structure by preventing bone loss. Dental implants also improve chewing ability and overall oral health, as they do not require altering adjacent teeth.
Who can receive dental implants?
Most adults with good general and oral health can receive dental implants. Ideal candidates have sufficient bone density to support the implant and healthy gums. Certain medical conditions, smoking or poor oral hygiene may affect candidacy. A thorough evaluation by our dentists will determine if dental implants are right for you.
What is the success rate of dental implants?
The success rate of dental implants is generally high, ranging from 95% to 98%. Success depends on factors such as the patient’s oral and general health, the quality and quantity of bone and adherence to post-operative care instructions. Regular dental checkups and good oral hygiene practices contribute to long-term success.
