Dental implants are artificial teeth created to replace missing teeth. The first part of the procedure involves a ceramic or titanium screw being inserted into the jawbone. Once the implant has healed, your dentist will use a special connector to fix a dental crown onto the implant post.
A dental implant looks and functions just like a natural tooth -- and allows you to enjoy your favourite foods, and smiling, again without embarrassment.

Key takeaways:

  • A dental implant provides a permanent and secure replacement for a missing tooth.
  • Your dentist will check that you have enough jawbone to support a dental implant.\
  • Your dentist will advise you to quit smoking, if necessary, as tobacco use can increase the risk of health complications and slow the healing process.

Dental implants are a popular procedure that can restore your smile and confidence. See your dentist for a consultation to find out more about dental implants.
