What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a small titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone beneath the gum line. Over several weeks, the bone naturally fuses with the titanium — a process called osseointegration — creating a rock-solid foundation. A custom-made ceramic crown is then attached to the implant, giving you a tooth that looks, feels, and functions like a natural one.
Unlike dentures which can slip and click, or bridges which require grinding down adjacent healthy teeth, implants are standalone replacements that preserve your remaining dental structure.

The Implant Process
- Consultation & Imaging: Thorough examination and digital scans to assess bone quality and plan placement.
- Implant Placement: The titanium post is precisely placed under local anesthesia. Most patients describe it as easier than an extraction.
- Healing Period: 3–6 months for the bone to fuse with the implant (you'll have a temporary restoration during this time).
- Crown Placement: A custom ceramic crown is fabricated and attached — your new tooth is complete.
Single Tooth vs. Multiple Teeth vs. Full Arch
Whether you're missing one tooth, several teeth, or need a full set, implants can be tailored to your needs. For patients missing all teeth, as few as 4–6 implants can support an entire arch of fixed teeth — eliminating dentures entirely.
