Dental implants are restorative treatments that replace your missing teeth with new teeth that feel, look and perform like healthy, natural teeth. Dental implants are surgically inserted below the gums, fusing to the jawbone, and serve as a base for replacement teeth, or for inserting crowns or bridges. Your dental implant is fused to your natural bone, creating permanence and stability. By integrating your actual bone, dental implants not only feel natural, but visually, look exactly like real teeth.
