When teeth are missing, the surrounding bone begins to shrink. Unhealthy bone loss can cause the jaw line to recede. Dental implants can prevent deterioration of the jawbone caused by loss of teeth, so your face can retain its natural shape.

As an alternative to bridge work, dental implants eliminate the need to grind down healthy teeth when replacing one or more adjacent teeth.

Dental Implants are more comfortable because they are securely anchored; there is no slipping or movement as there is with dentures. This eliminates some of the key worries of dentures, including poor fit, gum irritation, and pain from exposed nerves.

You will feel more confident with knowing you will never have to cover your mouth when laughing, smiling or speaking. Experience the increased taste sensation with your palate (roof of the mouth) open exposing taste buds that were once covered with plastic. You’ll look better, feel better and again enjoy foods you once ate, long ago.
