Implant Surgery

Implants are not permanent. They require the same care as natural teeth. Our failure rate is very low because of case selection to those who choose to care for them through at home hygiene efforts. If someone has lost all of their teeth in an arch, they must radically have a change in their dental care if they hope to maintain implants to support a dental appliance. A single tooth implant replacement in an otherwise healthy dentition will last for a long term when it receives the care that the rest of the dentition does. The placement of implants requires careful planning using CT scans, surgical guides considering the periodontium and loading of the implant. Many challenges are present but the rewards to both the patient and the operator are high.
