Discover the Confidence of a Great Smile!
Injury, decay, and gum disease are common conditions which may cause tooth loss. For many years, the only options available for people to replace missing teeth were bridges or removable prosthesis such as dentures or partials. However, with the advancement of technology, dental implants are now available to provide more permanent and natural-looking results.
Implants are inserted directly into your jawbone to serve as natural tooth roots, thus, they look and function like natural teeth.
Advantages of implants over other methods to replace missing teeth are improved speech, improved taste, and improvement in nutrition since they allow for better chewing.

How Long Will Dental Implants Last?
With adequate oral hygiene such as brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits, dental implants can last a lifetime. The location of the implants is also a factor in the expected longevity. Implants in the back of the mouth can fail more quickly than those in the front because of more strain from chewing. People who suffer from certain medical conditions such as diabetes or have a preexisting condition such as cancer have a higher risk of dental implant failures.
