What are implants and am I a candidate?
Dental implants are a restorative dentistry option designed to replace missing teeth. Implant dentistry involves embedding a screw or post into the bone, creating a stable base for a prosthetic tooth. When properly performed, dental implants can achieve the look and feel of natural teeth. It is the closest thing to getting your natural tooth back. A discussion with your restorative dentist and possibly a maxillofacial surgeon will help determine your candidacy for dental implants.
