Frequently Asked Questions
What are dental implants?
Dental implants are permanent tooth replacements made of titanium that are placed into the jawbone to act as artificial tooth roots. They support crowns, bridges, or dentures and look, feel, and function like natural teeth.
Am I a good candidate for dental implants?
Most adults with missing teeth are candidates for dental implants. Ideal candidates have healthy gums and sufficient jawbone, but even patients with bone loss may qualify with bone grafting or advanced implant techniques.
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care, dental implants can last 20 years or more, and many last a lifetime. Good oral hygiene and regular dental checkups are key to their longevity.
Is the dental implant procedure painful?
The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia or sedation, making it comfortable and pain-free. Most patients report only mild soreness afterward, which can be managed with medication.
