Dental implants are considered the gold standard for replacing missing teeth. They look, feel, and function like natural teeth, making them an excellent long-term solution.

"Dental implants are the closest you can get to healthy, natural teeth."

What Are Dental Implants?

A dental implant consists of three parts: a titanium post surgically placed in your jawbone, an abutment that connects the post to the crown, and a custom-made crown that matches your natural teeth.
