single tooth implants

Dental implants are one of the best restoration options available when it comes to replacing a tooth. This modern day technology fuses a titanium implant (pictured) into the jaw bone, providing long-lasting structure and support for a custom made crown fixed to the top. Implants don't require any special care and can be treated the same as your natural teeth. An individual with proper oral hygiene habits can expect an implant to last 25 or more years. In addition, implants help to keep the jaw bone stronger and with less overall loss compared to removed teeth with no form of replacement.

implant-retained dentures

Implant-retained dentures are similar to traditional dentures, but instead of being removable, they attach to a set of 4-6 implants. This provides for a secure fit with a natural look and feel, and less maintenance. Like traditional dentures, they can be placed on the upper, lower, or both sets of teeth.
