FAQs About Dental Implants

Dental implants are titanium posts placed in your jawbone to replace missing teeth. They act like natural tooth roots, supporting crowns, bridges, or dentures.

How long do dental implants last?

Q

A

With proper care, implants can last a lifetime! Regular brushing, flossing, and dental checkups keep them strong and functional.

Is the implant procedure painful?

Q

A

Most patients report little to no discomfort. With anesthesia and sedation, the procedure is comfortable, and recovery is usually smooth.

Can anyone get dental implants?

Q

A

Most people can! Healthy gums and a strong jawbone help, but bone grafting can improve candidacy if needed.

Are dental implants better than dentures?

Q

A

Yes! Unlike dentures, implants are permanent, don't slip, and help maintain jawbone health, making them the superior choice.
