DENTAL IMPLANTS

​

Probably one of the most important breakthroughs in modern dentistry, Dental Implants are artificial roots that replace natural roots of teeth. Usually made of titanium and titanium alloys, they are surgically placed through the gums and into the bone of the upper or lower jaws. Once placed and after a few months of healing (called osseointegration), prosthetic devices such as crowns, bridges, partial dentures and complete dentures can be attached to the implants with excellent stability and retention.  This gives patients superior function and esthetics not possible before. Clerk Prosthodontics in Dartmouth offers a wide variety of Dental Implant services.
