When permanent teeth are lost, regardless of the reason or number of teeth, dental implants can offer a solution. Implants are superior to other choices because they are solid, secure, and aesthetically pleasing. Implants have been in use for over 35 years and have a 90-95% proven success rate in appropriately chosen cases.

An implant is made of a special surgical grade titanium post that is inserted surgically into the jawbone, below the gum surface. Smith Dental Care’s number one concern is your comfort. With proper use of the newest anesthetics and medications, you need not be concerned about pain. As the bone bonds to the post, it forms a secure foundation onto which your new teeth are then attached, shaped and colored to suit your mouth. The number of teeth being replaced will determine the best kind of restoration for you. Implants can help replace a single tooth, or a full set of teeth. If you have been suffering with partial or full dentures, missing teeth, or feel you need teeth extracted and replaced, don’t hesitate to ask about an implant evaluation.
