What Are Dental Implants?

Discover how millions of Americans are replacing missing teeth—for life.

Tooth loss doesn’t just affect your appearance—it can significantly impact your ability to eat, speak, and feel confident. Missing teeth can cause chewing difficulties, changes in facial structure, and even shifting of surrounding teeth, leading to further dental issues. Dental implants offer a permanent, natural-looking solution that helps restore both form and function to your smile—improving your health, confidence, and quality of life.

How Do Dental Implants Work?

implant-process--1

The Implant (Root Replacement)

A titanium post that acts as a prosthetic tooth root. It is surgically inserted into the jawbone and left to heal for 4–6 months, allowing it to fuse with the bone—a process called osseointegration.

The Abutment

A connector placed on top of the implant once healing is complete, supporting the new tooth.

The Crown

A custom-made restoration that looks, feels, and functions like a natural tooth—seamlessly blending with the rest of your smile.

The End Result...

A stunning, lifelike tooth that looks and feels just like the real thing. Most people will never know the difference—and neither will you.
