What are Dental Implants? 

Picture
A dental implant is an artificial tooth root that us placed into your jaw to hold a replacement tooth or bridge. Dental Implants may be an option for people who have lost a tooth or teeth due to periodontal disease, an injury, or some other reason. They are made of titanium, which is lightweight, strong and bio compatible, which means that it is not rejected by the body. Dental implants have the highest success rate of any implanted surgical device. 

Guided implants, A safer procedure with more predictable outcomes!

Picture
We now have the technology to plan your dental implant inside a computer program, making the procedure much much safer. This also allows us to do more difficult cases.   We use a 3d xray called a cbct that shows us exactly where everything is. It can also minimize the discomfort after the procedure, by allowing us to make a smaller incision.

We can now simply place a plastic guide over your teeth that has a small hole for where the implant goes.
