Restore Your Smile with Modern Dental Implants

Dental implants are the latest innovation in dental care for replacing missing teeth. While traditional bridges and dentures still serve their purpose, implants offer a more natural-looking and functioning solution.

Discover the Advantages of Dental Implants

With dental implants, you can enjoy all your favorite foods without worry. They provide unmatched stability for various dental prostheses like crowns and bridges, even up to a full set of teeth. For those with full dentures, implants enhance comfort and fit while eliminating any embarrassing slippage.

A Versatile Solution for Tooth Replacement

Types of Dental Implants:

• Single-tooth implant:

  When a single tooth is missing, an implant restored with a crown mimics the look and feel of a natural tooth. Unlike traditional bridges, which require preparation and crowning of adjacent teeth, a single-tooth implant stands on its own as a self-supporting solution for restoring your smile.

• Implant-supported fixed bridges:

  Unlike conventional fixed bridges to replace multiple missing teeth, an implant-supported bridge doesn't involve the preparation of adjacent natural teeth. Instead, it uses strategically placed dental implants to support all necessary crowns and replacement teeth. This approach preserves your natural teeth while providing ongoing bone stimulation to maintain facial contours.

• Full arch replacement with four or six implants:

  As an alternative to full dentures, a complete set of replacement teeth supported by four or six dental implants can replicate the appearance and function of natural teeth. Unlike traditional dentures, this method offers a fixed solution that's both stable and non-removable. It also allows for immediate placement of temporary teeth with permanent ones to follow once the implants are fully integrated.

• Implant-retained denture:

  An implant-retained denture attaches to a few strategically placed dental implants in the upper or lower jaw. These surgical posts provide secure points of attachment for the overlying denture, enhancing stability and retention. This added security allows you to smile, speak, and eat with confidence.
