Are You a Good Candidate for a Dental Implant?

If you have healthy gums and adequate bone to support an implant, you may be a good candidate for this tooth-replacement option. An implant is an artificial tooth root that the dentist places in the jaw, where it fuses to the bone, to accept a replacement tooth or bridge. Because it so precisely mimics a natural tooth, a dental implant is the most secure, comfortable, and natural-looking tooth-replacement option. Once the implant and the prosthetic tooth are in place, they can be treated like the rest of the teeth. Just as importantly, unlike a traditional bridge, implants do not affect the health of adjacent teeth. They are stand-alone replacements that do not need to be anchored to neighboring teeth.

Dental implants can help you look better, eat better, and feel better. More than a million have been successfully placed in North America, and that's a lot of smiles! They are safe and reliable, and they look so completely natural that no one will know you have them unless you tell. Implants also help you avoid the facial changes, speech changes, and diet changes that take place over time as teeth shift and jawbone recedes. Are dental implants for you?
