A dental implant is a prosthetic tooth designed to replace your tooth after it has been lost or extracted. Implants are designed to replace both the root and crown of your teeth to give you a solution that looks, feels and functions just like your original tooth. Implants consist of two main parts, the implant post and the implant restoration.

After the implant post has been placed and integrated with your jawbone, you will meet with your general dentist to discuss your implant restoration. The implant restoration replaces the crown of the missing tooth to complete your treatment. Depending on how many teeth you are missing, this restoration may be a single crown, a dental bridge, or a complete or partial denture. During your consultation with your general dentist, they will determine which type of restoration will provide you with the best results for your oral health, function and smile.

Your implant restoration is custom designed to give you a natural and long-lasting solution for your smile. Each restoration created is designed to be both aesthetically pleasing and durable so that you can enjoy the results of your treatment for years to come.
