To put it frankly, dental implants offer an enduring solution to your missing tooth woes. In fact, dental implants once placed into your jawbone becomes fused to your bone, granting a strong support system like a root for your new tooth. It starts by having the implant surgically placed inside your jawbone. Over time, the implant becomes strong and is completed with a dental crown on top that looks natural and acts as a natural tooth.
As with any surgical procedure, there is a healing period where you will need to eat softer foods and allow your smile to heal correctly. The good news is our professional team is always ready to help you through every step of the process, so you know you are in excellent care and will have a beautifully restored smile.
