Crowns, conventional bridges, and dentures are not your only options when replacing missing teeth. For some people, dental implants offer a smile that looks and feels very natural. Dental implants are surgically placed below the gums over a series of appointments, and fuse to the jawbone to serve as a base for individual replacement teeth, bridges, or dentures.
Dental implants offer stability because they fuse to your bone, and that integration into your jaw makes your replacement teeth feel more natural and comfortable than conventional substitutes.
