What are Dental Implants?

Dental Implants are substitute tooth roots, used to replace natural tooth roots in areas of the mouth where teeth are missing. The replacement teeth look, feel and function like natural teeth—dramatically improving so many aspects of a person’s life.

With dental implants, a person who has lost teeth regains the ability to eat virtually anything and smile with confidence. The natural-looking replacement teeth also help preserve facial contours and prevent the bone deterioration that occurs when teeth are missing.

How New is Dental Implant Technology?

Swedish scientist and orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Per-Ingvar Branemark, developed the dental implant concept for oral rehabilitation more than 40 years ago. With his pioneering research, Dr. Branemark opened the door to a lifetime of renewed comfort and self-confidence for millions of individuals facing the frustration and embarrassment of tooth loss.

The company Nobel Biocare has been closely associated with Dr. Branemark, producing these implants for more than four decades. We are proud to be associated with this landmark company, installing the Nobel Biocare system of implants.
