Your guide to the most frequently asked questions about dental implants. If you avoid smiling or eating in public because your denture may slip or a space left by a missing tooth may show, dental implants may be an option for you.
Implant patients come from all ages and backgrounds.
Whatever your particular circumstances, dental implants can provide a sense of security and well-being that can't be matched. Dental implants are artificial substitutes for natural tooth roots. They act as an anchor for a false tooth or a set of false teeth. An Endosteal implant is placed directly into the bone, like natural tooth roots, and may be used for many purposes. A Subperiosteal implant is used when the bone has atrophied and jaw structure is limited.
