A dental implant is an artificial tooth root that is placed into your jaw to hold a replacement tooth or bridge. If you are self-conscious because you have missing teeth, wear dentures that are uncomfortable or don’t want to have good tooth structure removed to make a bridge, talk to one of our doctors at Riverwalk Dental to see if dental implants are an option for you.
Dental implants come in different sizes and heights, including standard, and narrow (mini). The ideal candidate for a dental implant is in good general and oral health. Adequate bone in your jaw is needed to support the implant, and the best candidates have healthy gum tissues that are free of periodontal disease. Dental implants are made up of titanium and other materials that are compatible with the human body. They are posts that are surgically placed in the upper or lower jaw, where they function as a sturdy anchor for replacement teeth.
