What is an implant?
A dental implant acts as an artificial root which is placed into the jawbone by the dentist. This then supports tooth replacements ie. crowns and bridges. Implants are ideal when one or several teeth are missing.
Advantages of Implants
- Dental implants act like your natural tooth root-you do not feel the difference.
- Implants can last a lifetime with proper care and hygiene.
- Implants are actually minimally invasive.
- Implants maintain natural bone and minimise further bone loss due to bone stimulation.
