FAQs
What is gum disease?
A dental implant is an artificial tooth root made from surgical-grade titanium that is placed into the jawbone to replace a missing tooth.
The implant acts as a stable foundation for a custom dental crown, bridge, or denture restoration. As the implant heals, the surrounding bone bonds directly to the titanium post through a process called osseointegration, creating exceptional strength and stability.
Dental implants provide one of the most durable and predictable tooth replacement solutions available in modern dentistry. Most importantly, restorations supported by dental implants look, feel, and function like natural teeth.
Why should I replace missing teeth?
When a tooth is lost, the surrounding jawbone no longer receives the stimulation it needs and begins to shrink over time. This process can affect facial appearance, chewing ability, and the stability of neighbouring teeth.
Why should I choose dental implants over other options?
Dental implants offer several advantages over traditional tooth replacement solutions.
Solid and secure foundation
Dental implants are anchored directly into the jawbone, providing exceptional stability that closely mimics natural teeth.
Natural-looking results
Implant-supported restorations are designed to blend seamlessly with your smile for a highly esthetic appearance.
Preserve natural jawbone
Dental implants stimulate the jawbone after tooth loss, helping you preserve natural bone.
Greater comfort than dentures
Because dental implants are fixed in place, they eliminate many of the discomforts associated with removable dentures, including slipping, movement, and irritation.
