A dental implant is an artificial tooth root that a periodontist places into your
jaw to hold a replacement tooth or bridge. Dental implants are an ideal option
periodontal disease, an injury, or some other reason. While high-tech in
nature, dental implants are actually more tooth-saving than traditional
bridgework, since implants do not rely on neighboring teeth for support.


Dental implants are so natural-looking and feeling, you may forget you ever
lost a tooth. You know that your confidence about your teeth affects how you
feel about yourself, both personally and professionally. Perhaps you hide your
smile because of spaces from missing teeth. Maybe your dentures don't feel
secure. Perhaps you have difficulty chewing. If you are missing one or more
teeth and would like to smile, speak and eat again with comfort and
confidence, there is good news! Dental implants are teeth that can look and
feel just like your own! Under proper conditions, such as placement by a
periodontist and diligent patient maintenance, implants can last a lifetime.
Long-term studies continue to show improving success rates for implants.
