A dental implant in the ‘simplest of terms’ is a replacement for the root of your tooth.

Why are Implants so Popular and the First choice for and by Patients?

Firstly, there is never anything like the original,’ and an Implant tooth comes as close as possible to the ‘real thing.’ By placing an implant in your mouth, your bone thinks the tooth is still there and will continue to grow and maintain a strong and healthy foundation. Without this implant, the bone will tend to degenerate, and in many cases lead to gum recession. This can then lead to a variety of complications or a requirement for more extensive care for many patients, instead of simple maintenance visits with your dentist and hygienist.
