Implants - A dental implant is a titanium screws that is placed into the jawbone to support a replacement tooth or bridge. Dental implants can be utilized to replace individual teeth or multiple teeth. They can also be used to stabilize loose full dentures. Dental implants can support natural looking replacement crowns that look an feel like real teeth. Although nothing can completely replace a natural tooth, dental implants are as close as you can get to what nature gave us.

Implants are one of the more significant recent advances in dentistry. These state of the art medical devices can restore the function and appearance of missing teeth giving the feel and look of real teeth again.

Implant Bridge: Implants can be used to replace mulitple teeth in the arch and thus can eliminate the need for a partial denture.

Dental Implants are placed into the jaw where teeth have been lost by a surgical procedure. A porcelain bridge is made and fitted for the implant and produces a natural appearance, which is almost impossible to spot against natural teeth.

Implant Supported Denture:

Because of bone loss resulting fom tooth extractions and periodontal disease or irregularties in the dental arch anatomy regular dentures are quite often uncomfortable for many people to wear. Implant Supported Dentures provide a firm fit of the denture to the jaw an thus offer a viable alternative to conventional dentures

How are dental implants placed?

Step one: An incision is made to expose the bone over the implant site. The site is prepared to accept the implant which is then inserted into the jawbone

Step two: In some cases, the gum tissue is closed over the implant. In many cases, this step may not be necessary eliminating the need for a second procedure after the healing period is complete.

Step three: After the healing period (3-9 months), the implants are exposed and connectors attached to the implants, which are used to secure the teeth to the implants.

Step four: The replacement teeth are lab fabricated and permanently attached to the implants. Normal function and stability is restored.
