While the idea of dental implants dates back thousands of years, it wasn’t until 1965 that the first modern implant was placed successfully. Since then, implants have evolved significantly, becoming a trusted and effective solution for tooth replacement. Today, implants are typically made from titanium, a metal that fuses with the bone through osseointegration, creating a solid foundation for replacement teeth.

This process ensures long-lasting support and stability for your new teeth, giving you the confidence of a secure, natural-looking smile. Modern implants offer a reliable solution for replacing missing teeth, and their durability makes them a popular choice for restoring oral health.

At our practice, we offer various implant configurations to suit your needs. We both place and restore implants in one location for your convenience. A single implant-crown combination replaces individual teeth, while an implant-supported bridge is anchored by two or more implants for multiple missing teeth. Implant-secured dentures eliminate the need for adhesives, providing a stable, worry-free fit. For a full-arch solution, fixed hybrid implants allow you to care for your new teeth like natural ones.

For full-mouth reconstruction, your dentist will develop a customized treatment plan tailored to fully restore your smile. To make the process as comfortable as possible, we offer sedation options to help you feel relaxed and at ease throughout the procedure.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Implants

What are dental implants?

Dental implants are small titanium posts that we place in your jaw to act as artificial teeth roots. They are an ideal way to replace missing teeth because the implant fuses with your jawbone to form a base for new teeth. Implants also help keep your jawbone healthy by stimulating the growth of new bone.

Are dental implants painful?

Our patients usually experience only mild discomfort after getting their new implants. Your dentist will use local anesthesia to ensure your mouth is numb and you don’t feel any pain. Plus, we offer sedation to help you relax and eliminate any dental anxiety you may experience.

Can dental implants be removed?

Technically, dental implants can be removed, although it is unlikely you would ever need to have that done. Once your implants have been placed in your jawbone, they completely bond with it and can last for decades, if not the rest of your life. Your replacement teeth that are anchored to your implants have an average life span of five to 10 years.
