What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone to serve as a sturdy foundation for artificial teeth. Implants replace both the root and visible part of the tooth, providing a permanent and natural-feeling solution for tooth loss.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime and are considered the most durable tooth replacement option.
Is the implant procedure painful?
The procedure is done under local anesthesia and most patients report minimal discomfort, similar to a routine dental extraction.
Who is a good candidate for dental implants?
You may be a candidate if you have healthy gums, enough jawbone density, and no uncontrolled medical conditions.
What is the recovery time for implants?
Healing typically takes a few months, during which the implant integrates with the bone. A temporary crown may be placed during this period.
How do I care for my dental implants?
Brush and floss like natural teeth, and maintain regular checkups. Avoid smoking and maintain good oral hygiene for long-term success.
