Implants are a great way to replace missing teeth.  Replacing a missing tooth with an implant is the closest thing to having your original tooth back. 

Many people are walking around with removable partial dentures that they take out at night.  Others have missing back teeth that can be easily replaced with implants. 

Dental implant systems have three parts: 1) the implant, 2) the post and 3) the porcelain crown.  The implant itself is placed into the underlying jaw bone and acts like an artificial root of a tooth.  The post and crown are permanently attached to the implant and together they look, feel and function just like your natural tooth. 

If you have a removable partial denture or a full denture, implants are a wonderful way to stabilize both.  For patients struggling with loose lower dentures that float, as few as two implants can be a life-changing experience.  There are even options that permanently replace teeth, so that you don’t have to remove a denture at night. 

Dental implants have a long track record of predictability and success.  If you are interested in replacing your missing teeth with implants, we will be delighted to evaluate whether you are a good candidate.
