Dental Implants Information
Dental implants are a permanent solution to replace lost teeth. Dental implants are fixtures of titanium that are surgically implanted into the jaw bone. The patient is under anesthesia during the procedure. After the dental implant is installed, a crown can be bonded to the top of the implant to create a natural looking false tooth. Implants are best placed in the front portion of the lower jaw. Only a highly trained dentist may perform the dental implant procedure.
Implants are excellent procedures for replacing missing teeth, but it is very important that enough bone is available for the implants to be attached to. If you do not have enough bone for attachment, a bone graft may be necessary. Bone grafting helps increase the amount and shape of the jaw bone and is common among dental implant patients.
