Dental implants are changing the way people live! With them, people are rediscovering the comfort and confidence to eat, speak, laugh and enjoy life.

Dental implants are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel and function like natural teeth. Replacement of missing teeth with implants means that we don’t have to involve adjacent healthy teeth. The implants are tiny titanium posts, which are placed into the jawbone where teeth are missing. The bone bonds with the titanium, creating a strong foundation for artificial teeth. In addition, implants can help preserve facial structure, preventing the bone deterioration that occurs when teeth are missing.

If you and I decide that implants are an option for replacing your missing teeth, we will have an oral surgeon also evaluate your condition. Involving a specialist that has extensive experience in what makes implants successful will make sure that you and I have all the information necessary to insure a good decision. We will also end up with an implant placement that will allow me to create functional and esthetic final results.
