What are dental implants?

Imagine you’ve lost a tooth, and you want to replace it with something that feels and works just like your natural teeth. That’s where dental implants come in.

Essentially, a dental implant is a way to permanently replace a missing tooth (or several teeth) by putting a strong, artificial root into your jawbone to hold a new, natural-looking tooth in place. It’s a very stable and long-lasting solution!
