There are two main types of dental implants. Endosteal implants are the most common option and involve placing the mount directly into the jawbone. Dental implants use metals that are highly biocompatible, such as titanium, that integrate into the natural tooth enamel.
Subperiosteal implants consist of a metal frame that holds the post rather than placing the implant directly in the tooth root. Dentists place subperiosteal implants on patients that do not have sufficient jawbone mass or strength to attach a screw mount.
Dental implants are a permanent replacement option and perform the same functions as natural teeth. After they heal, dental implants will look and feel virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth. Dental implants can also improve your confidence by restoring your natural white smile.
We offer single tooth implants as well as implant-supported bridges and dentures. Below are just a few of the benefits of getting dental implants.
Restore Functionality
A dental implant replaces teeth, making eating, talking, and drinking easier. False teeth make it easier to get around in daily life and will help improve comfort and oral hygiene in the long term.
Missing teeth can also affect tooth alignment. Dental implants keep surrounding teeth from bending and buckling inward, which can cause problems with biting and chewing. Proper tooth alignment also maintains your jaw shape as you age.
Last but not least, the exposed jawbone may lose bone mass, leading to further loose teeth and mouth problems. Dental implants prevent the jawbone from eroding and help keep other teeth from becoming loose.

The cost of dental implants varies depending on:
Strictly speaking, no. Dental implants are permanent replacements, and the jawbone mount is not removable. The dentist can surgically remove an implant if necessary, though. You will need to replace the artificial crown every 15 to 20 years.
