A dental implant acts as a replacement root for missing teeth. They are commonly made of titanium and replacement crowns are placed on them. Inserting implants generally provides the most secure, natural and durable option for replacing missing teeth.
Not only does a dental implant fill unsightly gaps in a smile, they are also important to deter bone loss which will occur when a tooth is lost.
Apart from replacing single missing teeth, dental implants can be used to anchor dentures and keep them more secure.
For many cases, Dr. Madow can use "mini implants" to replace missing teeth. These generally require less surgery, less healing time, have less post-operative discomfort and are lower in cost than traditional dental implants. Mini implants are also used to hold in and stabilize a patient's full or partial dentures instead of using traditional implants.
