Implants

Contemporary dental medicine offers more options for replacing missing teeth than just crowns and bridges. For some people, implants are the way to go to create or restore the appearance of a natural smile. Plus, it can be more comfortable for some situations.

Implants are actually fused to the bone below the gum level. The surgical procedure is done over a few appointments. Since they're fused they offer greater stability and serve as the foundation for replacement teeth. In addition, many people find their replacement teeth feel much more natural than other replacement solutions.

It's important to note that dental implants candidates need to have healthy gums and enough bone to support the implant. Dr. Mike can provide a thorough examination and evaluation to determine if dental implants are right for you.
