If you lose a tooth due to trauma  or dis­ease you may be a can­di­date for a replace­ment tooth with a den­tal implant.  Den­tal implants con­tinue to improve appear­ance and func­tion for patients across the globe.

A den­tal implant is a replace­ment root for a tooth. There are at least two phases to hav­ing a replace­ment tooth with a den­tal implant . First phase involves tak­ing a spe­cial xray that mea­sures the quan­tity and quali­ity of the bone avail­able with a three dimen­sional cbct dig­i­tal scan­ner. If the bone nec­es­sary is avail­able the den­tal implant can be placed sur­gi­cally by an expe­ri­enced den­tist or oral sur­geon. After approx­i­mately three months, the den­tal implant root can be restored with a cus­tom post and new porce­lain tooth.
