"Dr. Gage, what are dental implants?"
 

Dental implants are titanium cylinders, which are placed into the jawbone where your original teeth once existed.  These "replacement roots" are used to secure the replacement tooth in place.  Titanium is used most often because it is the most compatible with human biology.  Bone loves titanium and grows right around it like it would a natural root.  The titanium "replacement root" is surgically placed in the jawbone, right in the dentist's office.  During the restorative phase, the dentist will take impressions and then make a prosthesis (tooth or set of teeth) that will attach to the implant.  Patients who have good oral hygiene and take care of their new teeth can enjoy implants that last a lifetime.  If you are missing one or more teeth, you'll want replacements that are as natural as possible.  If dentures don't work for you, you may consider dental implants.  Unlike dentures, which can be removed, implants are permanently anchored into the jaw itself.

Dental implants are the most natural replacement for a missing tooth. For more information call us at (802) 863-3950.
