The implant procedure was exhausting even though I was sitting passively in a comfortable chair. My jaw bone needed reinforcing with small pieces of donated bone material to strengthen the implant (I am rather thin boned to begin with). The way each piece of reinforcement was hammered in...

I was missing 4 upper front teeth from birth. I had a partial for 10 yrs prior to implants. I had put it off for many years due to cost of procedure. The money has been well spent and it has done wonders for self-esteem.
The surgery was very painful. Many, many shots and stitches. I was very...

All surgeries were under general anestesia...

I am really happy with it. It is...

I'e lost almost all of my upper teeth over the last 65 years and am going to replace 6 to 8 upper front teeth. I previously had a 1 piece bridge/crown which never really would stay connected to what was left of my remaining teeth. I finally gave up, had the 6 teeth stubs pulled, and am...

Dental implants: was it worth it?
Dental Implants Information
- Missing teeth can be replaced by an artificial root called an implant -- or dental implant-- that is surgically placed, allowed to heal and then covered with a dental crown
- The implant anchor is surgically placed into the jaw bone, and then the “tooth” or crown is attached
- Stronger and more durable than bridges & dentures, dental implants are the closest thing available to permanent tooth replacement
- Dental implants are generally considered to be expensive. The higher cost of dental implants is due to the materials and specialty required to complete the procedure.
- Dental implants are fixed titanium posts which acts as tooth roots. The integration process of the titanium post into the bone is dependent on very careful planning and understanding of human bone physiology.
