A Comfortable and Efficient Implant Procedure
The dental implant process begins with a thorough examination to assess your oral health and determine if implants are the right solution for you.

The implants themselves serve as artificial roots for replacement teeth, securely anchoring restorations that look and feel natural. This helps to maintain the integrity of your jawbone while giving you the stability to chew and speak with ease.
Using the latest in dental technology, such as CBCT imaging, allows us to plan the procedure with incredible precision. This imaging system provides detailed views of your bone structure, ensuring the implants are placed in the most optimal position. The result is a more efficient procedure and a quicker recovery, giving you the confidence of knowing that your treatment has been meticulously planned and executed.

FAQ
What are dental implants?
Dental implants are permanent tooth replacement options consisting of a titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone. This post acts as a stable foundation for a crown, bridge, or denture, restoring both the function and appearance of missing teeth while preserving jawbone health.
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. Maintaining good oral hygiene, regular dental checkups, and avoiding habits like smoking are essential for their longevity. The crown or prosthetic attached to the implant may need replacement after 10 to 15 years due to wear.
Is the dental implant procedure painful?
The dental implant procedure is typically well-tolerated and performed under local anesthesia, ensuring comfort. Some patients experience mild discomfort during recovery, similar to other dental procedures. Following the aftercare instructions provided by our dentists and team will help minimize discomfort and promote healing.
Are dental implants better than dentures?
Dental implants offer a more permanent and natural-feeling solution than dentures. They do not slip or require adhesives, and they help preserve jawbone health. While implants are more costly upfront, their durability and stability often make them a preferred long-term choice.
