Dental Implants

Cosmetic dentistry has the power to change your life and the way you feel about your appearance. Dental implants do cost more upfront. However, they allow you to make a true investment in your smile. A natural tooth consists of a root and a crown that holds the tooth securely under the gum and is anchored into the jaw. If you compare natural teeth to implant-supported replacement teeth, you’ll see they have the same parts. Both have a crown, which is the visible part used to chew food. Unlike bridges or removable dentures, which rest above your gums, dental implants are installed under your gums. It’s like growing a new tooth. They won’t shift around when they talk and don’t need to be removed at night.
