Q
What are dental implants?
A
Dental implants are the standard of care for tooth replacement. They integrate with the bone to provide support for crowns and dentures.
Q
What will happen without treatment?
A
Your jawbone begins to shrink from lack of stimulation. Losing your teeth will affect your smile and change the shape of your face, causing you to look prematurely aged.

Dental implants can be placed in most adults. Please ask your dental implant specialist to explain the benefits and risks to see if dental implants are right for you.
