What Is a Dental Implant?
A dental implant is a titanium post embedded into your jawbone that naturally fuses together
with the bone to take the place of your missing tooth’s roots.
Once the implant and jawbone become fully integrated, this restoration is
permanent. From there, the titanium post can support a simple dental
crown (if you are replacing one tooth), a bridge or even a full set
of dentures.

Caring For Your Implants
Another reason people are turning to implant dentistry to replace missing teeth is because implants don’t require unique or specialized care. Implants can be treated just like a real tooth, brushing and flossing them in the same way you do your natural teeth. It’s important that you are brushing twice a day and flossing daily to maintain good oral hygiene.
