Dental Implants

Smile again with confidence. Implants replace a missing tooth with a titanium post and a crown to restore your bite and prevent bone loss. They’re long-lasting, and look and function just like a natural tooth. In fact, they have the highest success rate and longest lifespan of all restorative treatment options, making them the ideal solution for missing teeth.

So thankful for this all-inclusive dental practice. They took me for a dental emergency and fit me in in between appointments to extract an infected tooth. They are so kind and gentle - I will be going back to them now on a regular basis! This is saying a lot considering my dental-anxiety.
