Dental implants
A dental implant is used to permanently replace missing teeth.
Dental implants can also be used to provide retention and stability for loose dentures.
They can avoid the patient having to have healthy teeth drilled to support a bridge,
Patients can replace an uncomfortable denture with implant supported crowns that look and feel like natural teeth.
What is a dental implant?
A dental implant is a screw placed into the jawbone, and a crown can then be attached to it to replace a missing tooth.
Attachments can also be fitted to the implants that will allow a denture to "clip on' to them. This will provide a secure and stable denture.
