If you’re missing one tooth, a single tooth implant (a.k.a. dental implant) can be inserted to take the place of your natural tooth root. You’ll then need an artificial tooth – a crown – to be attached on top via an abutment.
If you need to replace just one tooth, an implant may be a more effective alternative to traditional bridge work. A standard bridge requires cutting down adjacent teeth to support it. The supporting teeth become more susceptible to caries, and may eventually be lost too.
A dental implant not only preserves bone and gum tissues but also avoids cutting down neighbouring teeth, allowing their longer and healthier life span.
Dental implants look and feel like your own teeth.
Implants are very durable and will last many years. With good care, many implants last a lifetime.
