From the experience of your dentist to the cost of your procedure, we encourage you to look at every detail and learn as much as you can about dental implants before choosing a dentist. Here are 8 things to consider before getting a dental implant.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
To begin the implant process, a metal post is surgically positioned into the jaw. This post will
act as a permanent “root” for the implanted tooth. Once it is in place and the surrounding bone
and tissue have healed, the restoration is completed with a beautiful crown that looks, acts and
feels like a natural tooth.
