It is a fact of life that millions of Americans suffer tooth loss. In addition to changing facial appearance, missing teeth affect self-confidence and self-esteem. Now
dental implants offer a wonderful alternative to
bridges and
dentures. This permanent, simple and relatively painless solution often happens—all in one day! A dentist implants a material that serves as a new and permanent root. When a crown is placed on top of the new root, the "implant" is complete. It looks and functions exactly like a natural tooth. Bone and gum tissue grow around the "implanted" tooth the same way bone and gum tissue grow around a natural tooth. The miraculous result: Dental implants that look, feel, and function exactly like strong, natural teeth.
