What are Dental Implants?

Not to be technical, dental implants are “artificial teeth” that replace the gap left by your missing tooth. It’s not what nature gave you, but they are as good as your natural teeth and light-years ahead of other tooth replacement options.

A dental implant of three components. These are:

A screw-like surgical appliance inserted in your jawbone
An abutment (connector)
An artificial tooth restoration—could be a crown, denture, or bridge

Once these components are pieced together, the final masterpiece is virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth and functions just like your natural teeth.

Benefits of Dental Implants

One of the significant hidden consequences of lost teeth is bone loss. Once your jawbone no longer receives stimulation from the natural teeth, it starts wasting away, resulting in bone loss. Dental implants stop bone atrophy by stimulating your jawbone, just like the natural teeth. The other benefits of dental implants include:

They last for life with proper care
The dental implant treatment has a success rate of over 95%
They are easy to maintain
Dental implants restore your oral functionality to almost 100%
They prevent the neighbouring teeth from shifting
They are natural-looking

What’s the Cost of Dental Implants?

The cost of implants depends on many factors, including whether you need bone grafting and the number of teeth being replaced. Pricing also varies on your locality, dentist’s experience, materials used, and general dental health.

Dental implants may seem expensive, but they are a long-term investment in your smile, health, and well-being. For most patients, they are well worth every penny.

Hi, my name is Naren. I have been coming to dentistry on 10 for at least five years, probably a lot longer than that. I first heard about Doctor Rena, through a friend of mine who was my roommate back in college and the, the, thing that attracted me to her right off the bat is she went to Harvard of course, you know Harvard is one of the top schools in the world, so you know studying at Harvard and Learning dentistry Harvard, I’ve never met anybody who went to Harvard, so that was the number one thing. But when I came here, it’s not the Harvard that I ended up staying here for. It’s because she’s a very caring person and she has a team that really is caring. So, for example, you know I, I, have some health conditions and you know taking care of my gums is really, really, important and I’m like not that good at taking care of myself. So you know she just, just, stuck with me, just kept at me and, you know, just taught me things and talk to me about things and you know. And when I did, you know, kind of mess up and you know, get gum disease again. You know she you know, stuck with me. So, like for me personally, I know people come for dentistry for lots of reasons, some people you know, care about their smile and things like that. For me personally, it’s the health because I have a history of health issues in my family and I know the importance of, you know, taking care of your gums and you overall mouth and health so I would strongly recommend Doctor Rena if you really care about your health. If you really want somebody who’s not just trying to, you know, give you things you don’t need, but really, who’s trying to focus on what’s good for you, helping you achieve your goals. She’s very caring, very, very patient, very, very, gentle and, and, she’s there for you. So, it’s almost like having a partner in health who’s working with you to make your life better. So, we all need it, and especially as we get older when we are in our 40s and 50s, we need to take care of our health and without doctor Rena I don’t think I would have the comes I have and I don’t think I would be working on my health. Thank you very much Doctor Rena and I would, absolutely without a hesitation, recommend anybody and my entire family comes here as well as my two kids and My wife. So, thank you for being an amazing dentist and thank you for caring about people who live in the neighbourhood and their health.
