Implants

Dental implants are one of many options to help you achieve your ideal smile.

    What is a dental implant?

    • A dental implant is an artificial root placed in the jaw bone to support either a crown, bridge, or denture. The implant is titanium and permits your body to fuse (osteointegrate) with the implant

    Benefits

    • Replace a missing tooth without drilling on a neighboring tooth.
    • Maintain the same chewing force as a natural tooth (a denture has 1/3 to 1/4 the force as a natural tooth)
    • Stabilize a denture – multiple implants hook on the inside of a denture to secure it during use
    • Implants come in different sizes for different types of bone. Dr. La Monica primarily uses the implant that will be best fit for your bone type and situation.
