Reasons to consider a dental implant for missing teeth.

dental implant is an artificial tooth root made of titanium that a dentist with a special interest in Oral and Facial Surgery places into your jaw. Dental implants are ideal for people in good oral health who have lost one or more teeth.

DENTAL IMPLANTS ARE LONG LASTING

With diligent patient maintenance, dental implants for missing teeth can last a lifetime.
Long-term studies continue to show improving success rates for implants.

FEEL & LOOK LIKE A NATURAL TOOTH

Dental implants are implanted into the bone just like a natural tooth.
They are reliable and gain stability to be able to bite, chew and grind like a natural tooth making them a dependable choice of teeth replacement.
They also look and feel like a natural part of your smile.

IMPROVE QUALITY OF LIFE

Issues with teeth can have a significant impact on quality of life. Not only does it give a lack of confidence but can affect wellbeing when smiling, eating and speaking.
Teeth can also have a direct impact on your diet as certain foods can become difficult or impossible to eat.
By replacing even one tooth with a dental implant, it can enable the restoration of a natural smile which not only improves function but improves comfort and confidence enabling a better quality of life.
