What are the Benefits of Dental Implants?  Missing teeth can cause a host of oral health problems, from bone deterioration to TMJ issues. One of the most obvious issues is esthetics. Gaps in your smile may cause you to hold back from smiling when your meeting new people or when you take a picture. Dental implants can restore your smile’s appearance and give you the confidence you need to thrive in any social situation. ​

Dental Implants Deliver Superior Esthetics
​Dental implants are substitute teeth that are placed below the gumline. Crowns, bridges or dentures are placed on top of the implant giving life like results. Your new teeth will be both functional and natural looking. You will be able to eating the foods you have always enjoyed without problems.

Why Dental Implants are Better Than Alternative Treatment Options
Implant-supported restorations are superior for a number of reasons:

1. Traditional dentures can move while talking, eating or speaking. Embarrassing mishaps do occur
2. If you suffered extensive tooth loss, bone deterioration in your jaw can cause facial changes. Dental Implants will help preserve facial structure
3. It’s easier to keep your teeth and gums clean with dental implants versus partial, dentures or bridges
4. Dental implants or longer lasting then other choices
5. Dental implants are more natural looking
